Question

My point is; children do not need this garbage that does not belong in schools in the first place , we dont teach them about men-women sex ,do we? My previous question has been removed , it seems to me that TRUTH is not a welcome mat in the homosexual community. I want answers , this is an open forum , fredom ? If someone is ofended is because the truth ,like the hot sun hurts. Iam firm in the belief that SEX or teching it does not belong in schools! Period. Amen.

Answer 1

Obviously, kindergarten teachers should not be teaching about the actual sexual intercourse between same-sex partners, just as the they should not be teaching about intercourse of heterosexual partners. Sex Ed should not begin at school when they are that agem for sure. So that is not even part of the question. Its just common sense.

As for the idea of homosexual partners, its a reality. Whether you think it is wrong or not, it is still happening. A common theme for that age of children would be "Familes". Just as you would hopefully tell children that a single parent and his or her children is a family, I hope you would also tell them that a child with two moms or two dads is a family.

Yes, some religions are against same-sex relationships. But that doesnt mean that children should be taught intolerance. If anything, it would be up to the child's family to pass on their beliefs. There are also some religions which are against divorce, but that doesn't mean that you should tell your students that divorce is wrong, and that little Suzie's stepmother isn't part of her family because she didn't give birth to her.

School is meant to prepare students for the world. This means that they need to know what to expect, and they also need to be accepting and nonjudgmental.

It seems to me like you are offended by the truth that same-sex couples exist, and by calling that practice "garbage", and refusing to allow this topic in your classroom, you are the one who is squashing freedom.

Answer 2

I would agree that more than likely it isn't a good idea. But I didn't find in the question about whether the kid asked about it or not. I don't see any reason to bring it on them, but if they see it and are curious I would avoid the question until after speaking with the parents. Find out what they want said and why, or maybe point out (tactfully) that it is their responsibility to teach the kid on this one. Because as you said, it doesn't belong in schools, at least at that level.

I might agree in belongs in schools at the high school level, but only on the point as to why it occurs. If its genetic, people should know that so they can form their ideas with that in mind. If its how one is raised, or if its a psychological reason, or if its simply a choice as changeable as what you want for breakfast, whichever one it is it should be discussed properly so the child has all the info to make an informed decision.

And for the future, always remember that truth is often subjective; each person's truth is often changed by how they were raised, experiences they have had, and so on. That your truth doesn't mix so well with others doesn't change the fact that their truth is just as valid as yours, it is discussion and openmindedness that allows us to coexist peacefully. Don't throw away knowledge simply because it doesn't fit in with your beliefs at the time, which will change with each experience. You don't have to accept everything, but dismissing it out of hand without learning the reasons behind it shows an unwillingness to grow.

Answer 3

I would not recomend teaching the children about sex. But there is nothing wrong with having a book or story about two mommie's or two daddies. Some children do live with homosexual parents, but that doesn't mean there parents should be condemed in their school. We have books about mommy and daddy so why not provide equal coverage and let those kids that are living in homosexual families feel included.

Answer 4

to Not teach sex is irresponsible ,and that is why there are so many child pregnancies
kids learn about it anyway from other kids
and they should be prepared (armed) against the desires of the flesh and the dangers of disease and pregnancy.

in Latin American countries where sex is Not taught ,many girls in high school get pregnant

handing out condoms does Not promote promiscuity
many boys hopefully carry condoms ,this does not mean that they will get laid
that is a girls decision condoms or not
better have the girls prepared than a pregnant one ,because of a silly principle

this does not mean that you have to teach them all the deviant forms of sex
that they will discover all by them selves

be care full
to tell kids not to smoke ,urges them to try it
this applies to many things
the worst behaved kids are preachers sons
and drunks have kids that don't drink
to hide or prevent facts of life can have opposite effects and usually does

your attitude is dangerous,perhaps that is why they removed your questions
it is YOU who do not condone the truth
it is YOU who want to hide the Truth

Answer 5

Homosexuality doesn't belong anywhere; it's just as immoral as incest and pedophilia are, regardless of the legal aspect of the "right" of two "adults" to do whatever they want, even if it does lead them straight to Hell. I know this answer is probably going to be deleted because I think differently than the easily offended majority who are prone to overreaction when someone opposes them, but nonetheless I'm not going to pretend to agree with something that I think is wrong just for the sake of political correctness.

Answer 6

There's a time and place for everything and this is one of them that should be left up to the parents to tell their own kids when they get old enough, and kindergarten is way to young, let them be kids and have fun, they grow up fast enough. They don't need this garbage in their innocent minds

Answer 7

If you think that sex is 'garbage' and if you refuse to teach children basic objective facts of life, then perhaps you should begin by resolving your own issues. In my opinion, kids should be told and taught about the nature of both heterosexual and homosexual relationships in a matter-of-fact manner.

Answer 8

No. NOt at that age. I think 4th of 5th grade students maybe but if my 5 year old came home with that info I would be really mad. No sex should be taught that age homosexual or not

Answer 9

It's important to teach homosexuality as early as possible. Gay sex is not easy. It takes years and years of practice before one becomes good at it. Start them now and they'll become great homosexuals later.
