here is the story: huh, for some reason it won't let me post it. try this link- http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2007/07/sex-ed-for-kind.html

Hmm, Obama is more rational than what I first thought.

i think its to young. they wont even have to worry about sex for like another 10 years so why educate them now?Blitz_Nemesis

I am more concerned with us needing to stop our retarded "abstinence only" sex education, but hell this isn't a bad idea.

Come to think of it, at the end of Elementary school I do remember having a minor sex-ed course. Granted, it was pretty much just about puberty and the boys and girls were taught separately, but I remember they gave us these little packs with deoderant and I think toothpaste or something....

People, I really doubt its going to be like what we got in mid-late Elementary or Middle school. Kindergartner's wouldn't even understand half of it. I think that it would be something like "Boys have penises, girls have vaginas" and "When your mommy and daddy love each other, they make a baby" in cute, simple terms that they can digest without too much confusion.

I think it's great that they start learning sex education at that young of age. Just look at the amount of teenagers getting pregnant.

Besides this will help American kids learn more. America's education system is like a third world country.

Way too young.Immortalica

I can just imagine a cIass filled with children, watching a hardcore porno movie! :lol:

"Mommy? What is that man doing to that woman? It looks like she's in pain."

Daddy, did you ever poop on Mommy when she was naked :P?

would they even.. really be able to understand it?jimmy-fly

See, thats one thing I hate about him. He thinks that every person is from the ghetto or living in oppressed areas where kiddies start having sex by 4th grade, where they are doing drugs by like 5th grade and stealing by 6th grade. Seriously, I really didnt even start thinking about sex until I was like 14 years old...and even then it was still one of those...long ways off things. Drugs...never got into them and stealing, never did. He will make a terrible president because he is only thinking about one class of people here...not the entire country.ice_radon

So stealing is worse than sex and drugs :??

I dont think it will make a difference. One way or another there will still be teen pregnancies.

Obama still has my support.

That's really young :|

no that would make the whole world seem weird for them. plus they probably wont understand it, i think it should be saved until 5th-6th gradelukie_pie

People should actually read the article.. here are some quotes

"sex education for kindergarteners, as long as it is "age-appropriate," is "the right thing to do."

"But it's the right thing to do," Obama continued, "to provide age-appropriate sex education, science-based sex education in schools."

"does not support teaching explicit sex education to children in kindergarten. . . "

'Nobody's suggesting that kindergartners are going to be getting information about sex in the way that we think about it,' Obama said. 'If they ask a teacher 'where do babies come from,' that providing information that the fact is that it's not a stork is probably not an unhealthy thing. "

"...also envisioned teaching kindergarteners about "inappropriate touching,"

If by sex education you mean to tell them what is a penis a vagina pregnancy and things like that, without MUCH DETAIL, I agree. There is nothing wrong with it. You asre just telling them what they have in their body. However, if that means educate them about intercourse, sexual addictions and dieeases, that is too soon for them.curono

Our teacher's advice was basically this:

Condoms: Make love, not babies

The kids will be exposed to it so much grwing up its best that they learn what sex and all that is so they learn the difference between right and wrong.BlackPhoenix103
