Why?

Children will learn about family structures and about bullying issues. All fine and dandy.

Children will learn what body parts are called. They know the names for fingers and toes; why would it be so awful to know the names of penises and vaginas? This doesn't even have to encompass their functions.

Children will learn about appropriate touching along with this. This is very important. It means they know a little of what sexual abuse is and how to stop it. I don't see how anyone can be against that.
I'm not a roleplayer, but check these out: The United Defenders League and The Versutian Federation.

All right, sex education in Kindergarten? Great addition to the course of study. Learn to count, read, and where babies come from. Sounds like a plan. Do you think it's a good idea? I find it plainly stupid that we should teach 6-year-olds this stuff. We need to wait a while before we teach them something that they shouldn't (and I say shouldn't for a reason) need to worry about until their adult hood. It should be left the way it is, in middle school/ high school.

Also, kid should be though that gay and transgender people are also humans, in that purpose kindergardens should always invite some LGBT person with their partners to teach the kids tolerance. It would be good if they [LGBT] perform something for the kids, like saying them how do they realise they were different and so on.

6 does seem a bit early for what's suggested here. Although I agree that at about that age they should be encouraged to report possible sex abuse, by both teachers and parents.

They still work on males. See if you can get one anyway.

Mind you, it won't stop all papillomas. There are over 80 varieties, and virtually everyone is infected with at least one. But it will take out the most nasty ones. Namely the ones that grow on your genitals and sometimes give ladies cancer.

let's just get it out of the way

did you read the article?
ask moderation about reading serious moderation candidates TGs without telling them about it until afterwards and/or apparently refusing to confirm/deny the exact timeline of TG reading ~~~ i hope you never sent any of the recent mods or the ones that got really close anything personal!

signature edit: confirmation has been received. they will explicitly do it before and without asking. they can look at TGs basically whenever they want so please keep this in mind when nominating people for moderator or TGing good posters/anyone!

Well after reading a bit, I have decided against my original opinion. This could very well be a good idea.

“Whether that means there’s two moms at home, everyone’s home life is different, and we introduce the fact that we all have a diverse background, “ said Whyte

That’s a lesson some conservative organizations oppose.

The say CPS is giving in to liberal groups that seek “to normalize homosexuality.”


Hooray for sincerity on part of the conservatives. Finding people that admit to homophobia is hard.

They need to know this so they can report someone who's sexually abusing them.

I'd not want to know about those gross things in the age of five. I would be scared to friggin' death!

"Anytime, anywhere you, yeah YOU little boy or girl, could be attacked by a big man or lady. They usually give you candy or try to be nice. After that they will rip your buttocks apart-- or any other part of your body. They do it, because they umm, like to do that kind of stuff." Eww.

Or how about if children were told about how exhibitionists use their pee pee? It was too inappropriate to be put here.

It's also an age where kids are HEAVILY vulnerable to abuse. And it's also the age they start asking about it. So, why lie to them?

(I'd also like to point out that kindergarten in the US is for 5-6 year olds)

Yeah, but I wouldn't actively bring it up when they don't ask.

I agree that we shouldn't bring up the stork and shit like that, even though I'd totally love to tell my children something that they'll totally believe until they get older.

You, first of all, underestimate the ability of children to adapt to the idea that dangers exists. And you also are apparently incapable of understanding that things like this can be worded far more delicately. And to top it off you are forgetting that what is far, far worse than a child knowing that dangers exist, is a child being abused, having no idea what to do, and blaming themselves.

After the initial shock of seeing the article subsided i realized that its for the best to start educating children about sex at a younger age as they are becoming sexualized at a younger age as well...
