Obama thinks we should teach Kindergarten students to avoid sexual predators (i.e. tell them it's not appropriate for people to touch them certain places.) Oh, he's a bad bad man.
Oh, and more sexual education is not needed? Please. _________________ "why are we vetting joe the plumber? he's already done more interviews than sarah palin!" -jon stewart |

Sex education is needed in our young kids..........but not at the age of five. Most parents have enough common sense to explain to their kids what sexual predators are and what they do, anything outside of that is not and should not even be considered. At 5 years old they are finally learning to color and stay in the lines with-out being confused.........what do you think about explaning anything in sex education will do to the mind of a 5 year old child......????????? _________________ Keep ya dayum change!

You have a problem with schools teaching kids that it's bad for grownups to touch them inappropriately?  _________________

I think its not a good idea to explain anything outside of that to a 5 year old, its fine to teach a 5 year old about a sexual predator and their doings. But thats not what all Obama was talking about, he didn't say "lets teach 5 year olds about sexual predators and their doings..."..........he said sex education at an early age, in kindergarden is what he said.

What an absolute load of crock. She thinks having a teacher teach kids about what inappropriate touching is will lead to the children being more comfortable talking to the creep at the edge of the playground? What a moron! _________________

The point is.........things in this matter need to be discussed with parents & kids. I don't think, if I had a 5 year old kid, that I'd want a school teacher discussing anything related to my kids about sex education. If the kid asks, or brings it up, that might be one issue entirely different, and needs to be investigated by law enforcement. It is the PARENTS responsibilty to teach kids what needs to be known, and if the parents don't discuss things of this nature with their kids, then no one can be blamed but the parent. Being you have never been in the position of having a kid in your life, its probably harder for you to understand.........but one day you will see where I am coming from.
Another thing, kids at 5 years old speek real often about what they did at school today or yesterday, and they speak about it openly as well, it might be at church, it might be in a check-out lane att wal-mart, or in a park playing with other kids. Can you see kindergarden school kids running around discussing these issues in public, acting like the puppets used for discussion..........it will be a mess, this much I can promise you. Obama needs addressing on this situation.............just because you like the guy and decided thats your man to vote for does not make all of his actions law, or right either.
Ask the parents on here what they think about sex education for 5 year old kids......see what kinda response you get. _________________ Keep ya dayum change! Obama Won, America Lost! |

I am a parent of a six-year-old boy. I do not want him to know things, like you said, it would only confuse him. In today's time, it's hard enough to shelter our children. And I have spoken with him about not letting people touch him.
But you know just because someone is a parent doesn't mean they talk about things. They should, yes. But that's not always the case. And they plop their kids in front of the TV while they watch Sex in the City or whatever and I'm sure there are questions.
And if something happens to one of those kids, I don't think "it's no-one's fault but the parents" is going to help anything.
But Obama voted for this bill BECAUSE of the teaching about sexual predators.
Here is the part of the bill that turned into "Obama wants sex-ed for Kindergarten"
"SB99: Course material and instruction shall discuss and provide
for the development of positive communication skills to maintain healthy relationships and avoid unwanted sexual activity. ... Course material and instruction shall teach pupils ... how to say no to unwanted sexual advances ... and shall include information about verbal, physical, and visual sexual harassment, including without limitation nonconsensual sexual advances, nonconsensual physical sexual contact, and rape by an acquaintance. The course material and instruction shall contain methods of preventing sexual assault by an acquaintance, including exercising good judgment and avoiding behavior that impairs one's judgment."
And here is Obama responding to Alan Keyes question about the very same thing:
Keyes, Oct. 21, 2004: Well, I had noticed that, in your voting, you had voted, at one point, that sex education should begin in kindergarten, and you justified it by saying that it would be "age-appropriate" sex education. [It] made me wonder just exactly what you think is "age-appropriate."
Obama: We have a existing law that mandates sex education in the schools. We want to make sure that it's medically accurate and age-appropriate. Now, I'll give you an example, because I have a six-year-old daughter and a three-year-old daughter, and one of the things my wife and I talked to our daughter about is the possibility of somebody touching them inappropriately, and what that might mean. And that was included specifically in the law, so that kindergarteners are able to exercise some possible protection against abuse, because I have family members as well as friends who suffered abuse at that age. So, that's the kind of stuff that I was talking about in that piece of legislation.
(btw, the age-appropriate came about when talking about AIDS. and I know in elementary school we talked about AIDS and avoiding it and there was no mention of sex, I had not a clue what sex was. that's age-appropriate.) _________________ "why are we vetting joe the plumber? he's already done more interviews than sarah palin!" -jon stewart |

I realize that, and I disagree with him on several issues. However, this issue is not one of them. As I see it, this is yet another thing that has been twisted so that it sounds more alarming(Sex-ed for toddlers! OMG!), when in actuality it's just common sense. Teach kids that there are certain things people should never do to them, and to tell an adult if they do. You aren't going into detail, you aren't teaching them about 'sex,' you're teaching them that "this is a no-no."
Now I could understand if certain parents would rather be the ones to educate their children themselves, and perhaps the plan could be improved by, for instance, giving parents the option to opt out? _________________

One step ahead of you. Opt-out was included.
"SB 99: However, no pupil shall be required to take or participate if his parent or guardian submits written objection thereto, and refusal to take or participate in such course or program shall not be reason for suspension or expulsion of such pupil."
Anyhow, the bill stalled and died in the Senate, and no action has been taken on it since 2005. _________________ "why are we vetting joe the plumber? he's already done more interviews than sarah palin!" -jon stewart |
