Too young imo to teach kids about that. My son goes to a Christian school--he is 4--hearing stories like this validates my decision to not put him into a regular public preschool.

Do not forget the classic progressive defence "he got in my PERSONAL space"- so how big is this personal space? Two feet- sixty feet? Back on topic. Leave the kids alone and let nature take its course. It is not any adults business to take interest in the sexual education of a child- especially children that are NOT YOURS/

I asked if it was OK?


The answer is either yes or no.

The question as to whether the material is presented "objectively" depends to a large part on whether the soft, mushy Absolutely Politically Correct goop that has been packed into public school curricula is "objective". Apparently, a substantial number of people don't think so.

It's so stupid to be teaching this stuff to 4 year old kids. They have no sense of what sexuality even is at that age. Leave them alone. Let them be kids. Let them play. You can ram the BS PC agenda down their throats later when they're old enough to process it. Age 4 is not the time to start.

Delaying puberty until they reach the age of consent and can choose whether to have surgery or not? Yes it is ok, under doctor supervision, and it's completely reversible.

Uhhgg. No it's not okay. What is the problem with letting them live normal childhoods without pumping them full of drugs to delay their natural development?

Are you afraid they might turn out to be... straight?

Transgender does not equal gay. One is gender identity, the other is sexual orientation.

I know that, but do you really think a 4 year old understands any of that? And do you really think that most of us don't know that this is really about pushing an agenda at the expense of our children?
