50,000 people go to a baseball game, but the game was rained out. A refund is then due. The team is about to mail refunds when the Congressional Democrats stopps them and decrees that they send out refund amounts based on the Democrat National Committee's interpretation of fairness. After all,if the refunds are made based on the price each person paid for the tickets, most of the money would go to the wealthiest ticket holders. That would be unconscionable!

Or abortions, or treatment for STDs, or whatever, so long as it relates to the Planned Parenthood sexual agenda. However, I assume that in Britain as in the US, a minor can not even be given an aspirin in school without parental consent.

The onset of puberty is faster because liberals push it. These poor kids have no chance of a free childhood. The fast & loose messages swirl around them with no let up. TV, radio, "fashion"... Society has taken their childhood away. It didn't just "happen." IMHO

You assume correctly. A kid and his parents were hassled because the kid dared to take a Flintstones vitamin with his lunch.

"Teach, does that mean Santa uses a rubber?"

"And the Easter Bunny does EEEooooo!"

"I don't want the Tooth Fairy putting a hand that does that under my pillow."

The results of sex education in kindergarten.

I thought that was the function of the biological clock, and hormones.

The sadistic premature sexualization of children pushed through by these sick and twisted social engineers means that pedophiles will be able to say that the children seduced them!

[Libertina]

Physically speaking yes, but the "interest" and "knowledge" level has been drmatically pushed & increased by the liberal activist agenda.

Good thing this isn't happening here. (Yet.) Otherwise this would probably have to be done over my dead or imprisoned body. (My heart nearly raced as I read it... 5?!)

Interesting. According to my mother, my father taught me the basic "facts of life" when I was four, apparently because I started asking questions when my mother was pregnant. I don't actually remember this, so I have "always" known.

I don't think this is a bad thing. But compulsory!!!??? Taught by some state paid Sergeant Schultz? No thanks.

Not to mention that these days the "facts of life" must include the facts of sodomy, or else you're a Nazi.

While one may suspect that changes in diet may have an effect on maturation rates--and so, perhaps, even psychological factors--it is likely that the major change in Britain reflects not a biological speed up, but a demographic change. Many of the non-Caucasian racial groups have earlier maturation than Caucasian racial groups. I believe that there is also a division among Caucasians, themselves, with an earlier maturation in the eastern branches--as those from India and Pakistan--than among nordic and alpine branches, etc..

While it has become the fashion in our ridiculous centers of "higher" education, to pretend that race is only a matter of skin pigment; that is, of course, one of the Big Lies that the Left employs to attack traditional societies. But there is absolutely no truth to the notion that we are all the same. And that lie serves merely to confuse people's sense of identity. It is not, of course, just aimed at one particular group. It is intended to undermine all of us in any identification with ought but an undifferentiated humanity in need of central direction. It is a Socialist ploy, and has never been anything else.

The reduction of pregnancy and disease is NOT the purpose of sex education.

[Zipporah]

What makes you think this isn't happening here? It is.

[Justa]

I agree. The only rationale in teaching 5-year olds sexual awareness is so pedophiles can prey upon them.

[AppyPappy]

My wife teaches preschool. One of the parents came in with a concern. The parent said their daughter told them that in order to play in the jumping castle (one of those inflatable jumping arenas), all the kids had to take off their clothes and the boys and girls had to be separated because the boys would "beat the girls with their penises".

They are European, of course.

[AnnaZ]

One can still opt out here... if not out of the class, then out of the system.

[breakem]

I'm startinf a new business. Making sex ed tapes for babies. mothers can play the tapes in the nursery and it will prevent their child from becoming pregnant for 12 years or so. Need funding and suggestions for marketing.

[TLI]

Proposals include a national information campaign targeted at boys and young men, particularly from black and ethnic minorities...

Targeting Minorities? Why, is that not racists? Why in the world would out highly sophisticated and educated all-united European fellow world citizens believe it is necessary to target minority groups?
