Pupils aged five should be taught all about sex: Watchdog’s instruction to schools
By Daniel Martin
Last updated at 1:13 PM on 17th June 2010Children as young as five should be taught about sex, the Government’s controversial health watchdog said last night.
The National Institute for Clinical Excellence – whose main role is to ration NHS drugs – is to write to every primary school telling it to start sex education when pupils are five.
It will tell teachers that children should not be taught to say no to sex – but should learn about the value of ‘mutually rewarding sexual relationships’.Let them have a fucking childhood for God’s sake :evil:
I know what you mean Pete – these days children aren’t being allowed to be children.. They’re being forced to grow up before their time.. Although.. I don’t see anything wrong with teaching them small basics, obviously in child form – without being too graphical, if you see what I mean!
What a load of utter shyte!!! :shock:
Fgs What is up with these so called do gooders – Why do they continually try to take away childrens childhoods?
These Jobsworths who sit in offices twiddling their fingers and using chat sites all day long need to be sacked. They probably spends thousands doing surveys no one replies to. Another example of this country going bonkers.
Ah, The Daily Mail. That won’t turn out to be something perfectly sensible that’s been blown out of all proportion, then. Not something in The Mail. You can tell it’s honest, straightforward journalism at a glance. For a start, if The Mail had made it up, it would have had something about immigrants in it.
Not really. You see the link to The Thunderer that you post contains the paragraph,
He insisted, however, that very young children would not be given sexually explicit lessons. “We are not talking about five-year-olds being taught about sex . . . What we are talking about in Key Stage 1 [when children are aged 5 to 7] is children learning about themselves, their differences, their friendships, how to manage their feelings,” he said.
Not exactly how to put a condom on, is it?
Do you often believe what you read in The Mail, then? If so, I owe you an apology. You’re quite right to be so angry all the time. The world must seem quite awful.
It’s actually quite rewarding to flick through the links. I don’t know what sort of publication the Canadian rag is, but there’s a rising spectrum of hysterical reporting from the reasonably sober Thunderer article through to the mad eyed Mail one. I don’t know quite what lesson to draw from it.
Oh, I know: If it’s in The Mail, it’s usually errant, rabid nonsense.
