The main problem is that there is no middle ground now. On one hand we have the religious sect wanting to mystify sex for the young and on the other hand we have the liberals wanting everything discussed. Personally I think both are wrong and that kids of today should be informed about sex in a natural progressive way and not have it rammed down their throats (no pun intended), or denied from learning about it. How I would like it done is for the kids to be given the freedom of group discussions with a teacher in charge to make sure that the debate is a constructive one and that the kids can ask questions. But unfortunatly both sides have their own agenda to follow and the loosers are our kids. There is nothing more wonderful than to see it in the eyes of a kid that is finding out what nature is all about. Do not know what it is like in schools in the UK but here in Oz it seems that once they get to high school that the teachers are only there to allot homework and teaching is secondary. Nothing more obscene than seeing the little kids going to school with back packs larger than themselves in some cases. All I ever took to school was myself and knew that I was going to be in a class rooms under tuition the whole time and when school finished then we would have the freedom for recreation and finding out about life.
That's the way the mop flops.
