The fact that ***** and ****** are censored here speaks volumes about this forum, doesn't it?
Revealed: The sex-ed update Ontario badly needs
A new sex-education curriculum, to be revealed Monday, will be the talk — and the teaching — in our schools starting this September.
It’s about time. Five years after capitulating to a contrived outcry from political and social conservatives, the Liberal government is finally modernizing our embarrassingly outdated sex-ed curriculum.
This time, sources say, there will be no backing down from the badly needed update.
No, it’s not dirty talk — just straight talk on sex, sexting, body parts, consent, mental health, and other life (or life-saving) skills for girls and boys. The idea is for teachers to inoculate students against the ways of the world before they surf the world wild web on their own.
Our children deserve to learn it all in classrooms, not be lured in lurid chat rooms.
Yes, children will be taught at an early age that there is something called a *****. Also a ******. Get used to it — Grade 1 kids already are, and child-abuse investigators have long been calling for it.
In Grade 6, the words “******l lubrication” will be up for discussion. Yes, there is talk of “wet dreams.” And if kids ask about masturbation in class, yes, the optional “teacher prompt” advises that it “is not harmful and is one way of learning about your body.”
