Exactly! My 5 year old son starts Kindergarten in a month and in no way does he need to know about sex. He doesn’t know about it now. Heck, my 9 year old 3rg grader has no clue what it is either at this point. At some point I plan to sit down and tell him about, but when he goes through puberty and starts to notice girls.

If Obama makes it into the white house and this comes to pass my kids will be pulled out of Public School!

I'm not going to debate whether sex-ed should be taught in the schools, but I learned where babies came from when I was 5 years old, and it didn't do me any harm. It was in a book called, "A Doctor Talks to 5 to 8 Year Olds", and basically covered pregnancy from conception to birth. Later, I learned how conception was achieved, I think when I was about 7-8. And around that same time I remember a boy playmate who was a couple of years younger than me, telling me what he learned about babies, and he had the info pretty much correct, and sounded like he was reciting from an encyclopedia. I don't think you'd be doing your sons any harm whatsoever by telling them where babies come from and how they're made. They can handle the information without becoming 'sexualized'.
