I genuinely can’t work out if I’m being Pearl clutchy or this is a reasonable concern.
My DD is 11 and was told about anal sex and oral sex in class last week. No details were given, it was on a slide alongside other sexual activities that she couldn’t remember apart from PiV sex. There was no context given or explanation. Also there was reference made to using pornography.
I feel real uncomfortable that my young DD (who still plays with dolls) is being given this information as if they are mainstream activities that are ‘normal’ in a loving relationship. And unhappy they were given no context around the moral and heath and social issues. And if my DD hadn’t mentioned it, I would have no idea this was covered.
What would you do? Am I being precious? Or are these reasonable concerns?
