should there be sex education in primary schools?

Answer 1

of course and practice classes,
exploring other sex atributes.
we r simpler than we think dont make things harder than they are.

Answer 2

Yes, for several reasons. First of all today's students are maturing physically at a much faster pace. This means that by 5th grade many students are well into puberty. With all those hormones jumping around Human Development classes explain that its normal for feelings. This helps the kids who are afraid. On the other hand some of these young students are all ready experimenting with sex in 4th & 5th grade.They aren't afraid of the changes. However, they aren't knowledgeble about the consequences either. The old adage about not talking about sex and the kids won't either is dead, buried and gone! It would be a shame to allow children to die because of being misinformed or worse yet totally ignorant about STDs (sexually transmitted dieseases). So whether we teach about it or not many of them are already thinking about it and actually doing it

Answer 3

well, it is appropriate to get primary students to know about sex. but since they have limited apprehension on terms and situations, i think they should be exposed to the basic knowledge only, enough for them to know how not to offend the opposite sex and how to feel and know one is offended, sexually of course. Another important thing to note is the angle of exposure and the way the explanation on sex-pertaining topic. Remember, one small twist of tongue might cause a whole lot of misunderstanding and consequently, misbehaviour.

Answer 4

I think so. Kids need to know ALL the facts about sex. If the parents aren't going to do it, then the schools should.

Answer 5

I think that children under the age of 10 are too young to hear that in school.
If they ask questions their parents should answer them as openly and honestly as they see fit.
My son asked me where he came from over and over when he was about 6.
I read him a book called "Where did I come from?".
It was age appropriate and it answered all his questions in a way that he understood.
Sometimes it is best to ask your Mom.

Answer 6

yes. i think so. i've heard a shocking news that somewhere they are teaching kids in year 3 (7/8 year olds) about homosexuality and gays and lesbians. now that's a bit too much isn't it?

Answer 7

Well it has its ups and downs. The kids may be informde, but then rape may go up be cause it is 'cool'. Hard call.

Answer 8

Answer 9
