What are you mad. Do you want a 2 year old consummating another? Why can't they wait until high school like regular people?

Most pre schools do teach age appropriate sex ed. For example, we had a picture of a little boy in his costume, and a little girl in her bikini at our school. We were taught that no one is allowed to touch us in places where our costumes cover. We also knew that a mommy and daddy make a baby. Children often get curious about where babies come from at pre-school level because lots of mommies are pregnant or have just had a new baby. The key is to listen to the child's question and only answer what they have asked. The more simplistic the better. When asking "where does a baby come from?" most pre schoolers will be more than happy with an answer of " daddy gives it to mommmy because he loves her" or something similar. if they don't ask, don't elaborate.

I was sexually molested at 4 going on 5...I'm for teaching children at a young age. This type of education gives them the knowledge that this is "bad". Teaching can be done in a simple mannor to where a young child can understand. Preschoolers can be taught to run, yell, kick and scream at people who try to get their underware off....what I also feel is... if it is taught in the preschool then the parents should be invited.

It isn't right to indoctrinate sex education at such a young age. At that age, children are just learning to develop their fundamentals and humanistic skills. It would be hard, if not impossible for an adult to attempt to educate them on sex if they do not even understand the basic biological concepts. Furthermore, sex education is best taught by a familiar face, perhaps their parents or a favorite auntie or uncle, someone they feel comfortable with.

Leave it to parents. Can you imagine what a circus it would be shoving that crap at preschool teachers? After being watered down enough for everybody to be comfortable with it, the lesson would be completely meaningless anyway.
Also, I disagree with the previous suggestion that preschoolers, if they ask, should be told, "a daddy gives a baby to a mommy because he loves her." As cutesy as it sounds, and as technically true as it is, it's a terribly misleading statement. You know damn well it's going to give kids the impression that a dad just finds a baby somewhere and picks it up and hands it to a woman. That makes it a lie.

I think any question relating to sex should be answered honestly and only to the depth a child will understand. A 3 year old will ask a simple question, so give a simple answer.
It should not be taught as a subject in schools until children are close to puberty.

Age-appropriate sex education should begin as early as possible.
Being educated about sex doesn't mean a child is going to have sex. Actually, the opposite is true; less education equals more possibility that they will have sex.

That is a tough question. Best rule of thumb to follow with kids is if they ask tell them. I don't know that I would entirely be comfortable with a strange teaching my little kids about sex.

A little too young to be teaching about sex.Children have to be ready emotionally as well
physically.Let the children be children.They grow up too fast anyway.

generally, you don't give kids the sex ed talk until middle school because when they're pre-school, they're gonna have too many questions and some you can't answer to their level. wait about 10 years before tou do anything with sex ed
