What a brave new world we’re living in. Education “experts” all calling for sex education to begin in kindergarten in a new report on recommendations for national standards. Heaven forbid we leave these things up to the parents. I guess they think we aren’t doing enough to sexualize our little ones.
By the time they leave elementary school, children should be able to “define sexual orientation,” and by the eighth grade be able to “define emergency contraception and its use,” according to a report containing controversial new recommendations for sex education in U.S. public schools.
“Ideally, comprehensive sexuality education should start in kindergarten and continue through 12th grade,” says the “National Sexuality Education Standards” report, drawn up by a range of advocates, academics and public education officials.
The Future of Sex Education (FoSE), an initiative started by sex education advocates, developed the standards “to create a strategic plan for sexuality education policy and implementation.”
Also involved are the American School Health Association, the National Education Association Health Information Network – the non-profit arm of the nation’s largest teacher’s union, the NEA – the American Association for Health Education and the Society of State Leaders of Health and Physical Education.
Read the whole thing, Planned Parenthood and the GLSEN are also involved. I’m sure you’re shocked.
Update: Lady Liberty linked – thanks!

With one of my own about to enter Kindergarten, I can say with utter certainty that if my school district ever hinted they were trying that… you would see me on the evening news and it wouldn’t be pretty.

um, yikes. Except, you end up explaining “sexual preference” sooner when your kid’s classmate teaches him the word “gay” as an insult and he wants to know what’s wrong with that . . .
