sometimes what the DM prints is correct, it is taking the spin they put on it with a pinch of salt

It was being discussed with the shadow health minister on R5 live yesterday morning. along with teaching children of that age about sexual organs, habits and activities including male and female masturbation as part of a programme to teach children about sex and awareness that is currently being implemented

Seems inappropriate to teach to children of that age, best left until they are older, 10-11 y/i guess would be about right. Let kids have their childhood without being rushed into things they do not need to know and is hardly relevant to them at that age.

Having two children, on nearly 9 and the other 6 i do not feel this is what they need to know. It is not something they have an interest in other than casual interest in where babies come from. They still believe in father Christmas, the tooth fairy and love children's stories ok the older on is getting curious about father Christmas and the tooth fairy and in a year or two may be the right time to tell her - if she asks or the right moment presents itself rather than forcing it on them before then are ready to deal with it and understand it.

I would be very surprises if anyone who has young children or works with them thinks it appropriate to teach this to kids as young as 6, kids mature mentally and physically at different rates, treat the kids as individuals with subjects as sensitive and important as this.

ffs ! Let children be children and not be confused with issues their little minds are not yet ready for.
This tripe is being promoted by left wing liberals , who are most likely queer anyway .
YES QUEER - not this ******* gay bollocks that is banded around now days.
There has always been homo's , but they kept to themselves .
Now every TV presenter is a brown hatter - Its being forced down our throats ( no pun intended)
It started with Larry Grayson - that was the thin end of he wedge . Now for main stream entertainers its obligatory !!!!!!! Even the CEO of QANTAS , that little weasel Alan Joyce is a poofter . FFS
The Paddys I know drink 20 pints a night and 40 pints on special occasions - How could you possibly be gay and drink that much Guinness ???????? Its impossible because you **** and fart so much it would'nt lend itself for **** sex -Ugh !

+1

Being gay is not inline with what nature intended. Fact. No hissy fit, tantrum or bitching session will change that!

Dont forget that the head of the most valuable company - Apple - is as you would say, a Poofter. Teach them young I say, the more the better, we need less breeders in this country.

The only person that would have an issue with that is F1 Fan himself and he would be dead.

Probably less messy than hanging, by the fifth go of hanging his head is likely to come off.

again pinch of salt applicable

but does it not say there to be taught about orgasms and ************ also


why the fck would anyone feel the need to explain this to kids at 6?

just pre-pubescent age is young enough so they cn have a mild understnding of potentil changes in there bodies and feelings, down to the increase of the terrible steroid testosterone lol.

whoever came up with that idea is fcked up in the head imo- as said above let kids be kids without ushering them into adolescance. why oh why would any 6 year old need to be taught about this or sexual orientation.

So hang on, kids are not aloud to view films that have moderate sexual references and scenes in them until they are 15, but they can learn about orgasms and masturbation at 9?

Hmmm.

Might as well start the boys off on classes for hairdressing, ballet dancing and how to become a Liberal Democrat, just in case

And of course many kids go through a natural phase where they "fancy" a child of their own sex and no doubt they will then assume they are bent for life.

It is almost as if we will be asking 7 year olds to make a decision on whether they are staight or gay.

Let the kids be kids.

One minute the 6 year olds are sitting singing songs about Santa, the next they are learning about blokes bumming each other, it's so wrong on so many levels it's not even funny.

If one of the children becomes gay/lesbian they will feel comfortable telling their parents and not hang themselves in the bedroom as unfortunately some do
Are you a poof then?

Six is a bit too young, by ten I reckon most will have an idea of how things work from telly, even at eight I remember being pretty well understandign most of what my parents said when it was being said euphemistically so I couldnt understand what they were on about, dont underestimate them, they are like sponges at that age, they get a lot wrong but they also have put a lot into place.

I would rather someone explained that some men like other men and not ladies rahter than them watch Eastenders, people seem ok with kids watching that horrible programme but not some basic facts, they dont need to go into **** sex and all that, just need to prepare them for situations where they need to understand what is going on, why uncle Len has a "friend" or why Auntie Leslie (not our Les by the way) has short hair, Doc Marten's and smokes a pipe

I dont get the need to moan about Gays, they arent going to stop and it isnt "against nature", even if it is they still wont stop, flying in pressurised tubes 30,000 ft up isnt natrual but we all do it, just do what you like, dont worry about hat someone is doing somewhere else, if they like **** as much as I like the alternative then thats all well and good with me, ok scremaingly camp is a bit annoying but so are many other things that people do.
