Oh Reginald… I disagree! Hahaha
Yeah, I was 22 years old when my mother sat me down for “the talk”, and even then, it only consisted of “don’t go to bed with someone”. LITERALLY nothing more than that. I just looked at her cockeyed and told her she was pretty late for this talk. And of course the talk itself was just so sub par.
Lol, my dad did way tf after school covered it. Probably like age 14 or so. He goes “raiderkev, u know about chicks n shit right?”
“What do you mean dad?”
“You know, like sex n shit”
"Yeah dad, we’ve had sex Ed the last like 2 years, and we’ve also had the Internet on our computer since before that. "
“Ok, good. You know, be safe and stuff”
A for effort I guess. Thanks Dad!
I could be wrong, but I don’t think your experience was typical. I hope I’m not wrong. My mom did this whole little lesson plan with me when I was entering puberty, including reading a book to me that I think was called Preparing for Puberty. It was awkward, but I’m glad that she took the time to share that information with me.
Isn’t sex ed, deescalation and abuse prevention part of the standard kindergarten schedule since 30 years?
I know we have some, and your place might too, but it is not a universal thing.
“Stranger Danger” and “Bad Touch” aren’t discussed in Indiana Classrooms until the 2nd grade, and even then, its super-vague.
Kids need to learn about their bodies, consent and types of abuse early so that they are able to recognize and report abuse being done to them or others. If not, they don’t have an understanding of the language needed to express that things that are wrong and they need help.
This is EXACTLY why republicans don’t want children to have a functional path to sexual education. And similarly why they don’t want their voters to have a basic general education.
Dude, I don’t think that republican policy is based on the pedofile agenda
I mean… there’s a looot of Republicans involved with pedophilia. https://greaterandgrander.com/a-comprehensive-list-of-republicans-arrested-or-accused-for-pedophile-charges/
The number of pedofiles in the population is so small it wouldn’t make sense. It’s like tailoring your policy based on urination fetish peoples desires. It’s not going to get you enough votes to make it worthwhile and it’s going to cost you votes from the people that aren’t pedos which is almost everyone.

Sorry, but there is nothing like that from my phone. Not even a popup. I’m outside the US and use adaway.
