You are correct, I was thinking you were one of the others who insist that they will be teaching sex to 5 Y/O children.
I apologize.
Why shouldn't children know about basic reproduction? Any child that lives in the country knows this stuff before school. Mine did from the farm, and family pets.
And what in that article screams "teaching sex" to you?
Did you somehow miss jj's post from the parenting site?
Do you somehow think reproduction=Kamasutra?
-facepalm-
I never said anything about sex I said reproduction. I read the article.
I don't understand why people want the government to raise their children, is it that people are too selfish or just too lazy to do it themselves? This is probably the biggest downfall in our future.
The left can't teach their children?.. that is why they want the schools to take on that responsibility. It is called parenting and that they don't understand that facet.

I just think it's unnecessary at 5, they really need to concentrate on the basics at that age, it's the most important time in their lives when they start school, once they are behind most of them are lost and children are the most important asset to our future.
So I take it you don't think public schools should exist at all? I mean, shouldn't the parents be teaching their children everything - and not be so lazy to put that on the schools? They did just fine without schools for hundreds of years, right?
Btw, I fail to see how teaching kids basic sex ed = raising the kids for their parents. Is that all there is to raising a child? Sounds easy!! And if you're as anti-control (yeah right) as you claim to be, I'd think you would support offering ALL possible courses and giving parents the option of opting out; which is how things work now. But nooooo, what you actually DO want is control, but cannot see the forest for the trees.
When I went to school I went to a public school and we read from the bible daily. We even prayed.. today the left would be fighting tooth and nail to separate God's word from the children and replace it with sex education.

Its really a shame that so-called religious people hate others that are not like them.
Please spare me the homilies, some people hate anyone that doesnt agree with them, and then wonder why atheists exist.
Causal effect.

It can easily be covered with basic science class. They study animals, animals reproduce.
Even things like story books can cover the topic.

Right... that's why "the left" has higher educational achievements overall.
Do you just mimic FOX News, or are you coming up with these ridiculous comebacks yourself? Either way, I think you need to try again - this time with facts.
