Signed!
Those people have to be stopped, it's so wrong! That feels like such an understatement, but I can't find adequate words!
Thank you for drawing this petition to our attention and here's hoping and praying it succeeds!

No. Child sex education is vitally important. If you dont deem it suitable for your child, dont go. No where in the description does it state they will force 5 year olds to watch masturbation. It wouldnt have been allowed to be viewed for children if deemed pornographic. As I said its a theatre show, its not compulsory.
I worked with child sex abuse victims as a psychiatric nurse, as well as with adult survivors. Young children just need to be taught about setting boundaries around their bodies and on touch. It is very simple and they do not need to know anything about sex in order for you to be able to help them do so! I have worked with a fair few children on this and also did so with my own son when he was small! When I was small my own DM did so in her own way too; it was more intuitive on her part, she was not an educated person, but she was copped-on and it helped me very well to set boundaries on my body and on touch and ALL without knowing anything about sex! My innocence was protected as well as my body and mind, and I did the same for my own DS! When children are approaching puberty, then is the time to very carefully start teaching them, preferrably lead by parents or at least with their INFORMED consent, about how babies grow in their mothers' wombs and then, when they're that bit older, how they are conceived i.e. by a man and woman who love each other very much (and when I was taught this at a Catholic junior school in the early 70s, are married to each other and want to have children). That is usually enough to satisfy their curiosity and if you as a parent have done the safeguarding with them when they were small, about setting boundaries on who sees and/or touches them, how and when and how mum or a lady nurse should always be present, they are well able to say NO or to tell mum or a trusted adult if anything untoward is done to them! Kid's especially very small kids, do NOT ever need to see naked adults, strange naked adults, showing and pointing out their genitals and this so called "Family" show does do that! You are beyond wrong! Shame on you!

@MichelleScarn

Oh joy the 'not wanting to introduce your 5 yo to pegging and people who are joyfully talking about sexual pleasure, and how sometimes saying no really means yes' crew and if you don't agree you're a judgy prude are here!
They sure are! It didn't take long either, did it? I'm sure they'll be onto me like hounds seeing as I said I went to a Catholic school and had a Catholic sex education ( it was called "Christian Family Life Education" and mainly concentrated on how babies develop in the womb and how our bodies change during puberty as we were 10-11 year olds) but I don't care! People of all faiths and none will be against this if they are copped-on and value their children's innocence! The sorts of people who believe in letting kids be kids and protecting them from being prematurely sexualised! The sexual "progressives" as I'm sure they regard themselves, can go and take a running jump for themselves!

@Moppincraxy

It also says that children show sexual behaviour FROM BIRTH. WTF? Now co-opting babies into having sexual behaviour and identities. No thank you.
They must have got that BS from Kinsey! He did some the most depraved things to children and even to babies that I have ever heard and rationalised it as "science"! I would never want to put the info in anyone else's head, but if you think you could bear it, look up what that foul entity did to babies and you'll see where they're getting this pernicious crap from and then, see even more clearly how dangerous these people and their ilk really are!

Wouldn’t it be great if we could organise some kind of ‘open letter’ to the Arts Council from qualified professionals (teachers, psychiatrists, social workers etc) about why this is a dangerous show that has no educational value? It’s easy to dismiss petitions etc as being signed by uneducated extreme Christians.

I am not defending the show, but am not prepared to support a very right wing Christian objection because many of my reasons are not the same

Believing the content of the Family Sex Show is sexual is right wing Christian^^ @CarmenThePanda?

First of all, having a go at christians doesn't make you right. Secondly, most of us aren't religious in the UK. Not wanting nudity around your kid (sexual or otherwise) is now right wing. God help us, in that case.

Doesn't sound like you have many 'reservations at all' if you think those against it are all crazy 'very right wing Christians'Confused

You seem to have ignored everything else in my post (and my subsequent post).

I didn’t ’have a go’ at Christians.

The instigator of one of the petitions is clearly associated with the article in the Mallard, and I do not share their per se objection to nudity. Both petitions contain inaccuracies and speculation as to what occurs during the naked section of the show.

As explained in my other post I have written very detailed e mails to point out my reservations and concerns about the show including safeguarding. A bit more effort in a protest than signing a petition.

You make you response, I’ll make mine.
