Suprisingly this week we have had a letter from dd school (she is in year 1) it said they had been running a sex education programme last year on years 5 and 6 and it was so successful they are introducong it to reception, year 1 and year 2. Topics to be discusse dare based round two kiddies in nursery who grow up together and the will learn the proper names for ther body parts. Well i am not a prude but think there is a world of differnce between age reception to yr 2 and years 5 and 6 and dont relish the thought of my dd announcing daddy has a penis and mummy a whotsit over the Family Sunday lunch - the oldies will keel over!
Has anyone elses really young uns had this chat? To me they still beleive in fairies and father xmas so why the need for this at 6 is a bit hmmm to me......
