    dude if you plan on having discussions with the big boys you need to grow some balls an anti up or STFU. i asked 2x for cited material then i had to post an interview b/c of BS answers like usual on here

    hearsay/opinion alone are not valid answers in a discussion

    agreed but even your own post said VERY SMALL CHILDREN. Would that not almost certainly validate his post. Either way I don't agree that we need to go any lower than they age that we have it set at now. The problem isn't when we teach them it's how we teach them. I remember when I went to my first sex ed class in the 5th grade my gym coach kinda popped in the video and left the room. Came back asked if anyone had an questions and that was it. You think anyone payed attention? Had any idea what the hell was going on?

    my own post "VERY SMALL CHILDREN" where did i say this...? furthermore how does this validate hearsay? Jaime has not cited anything w/ Obama's name attached. read my last post. teaching small children about INAPPROPRIATE touching is perfectly fine and is what he proposed. i'm sure some of you good Catholics are fine w/ alter boy action but i find it quite disturbing.

    Senator Obama supports comprehensive sex education that is age-appropriate.[1] He is a co-sponsor of the Responsible Education About Life (REAL) Act, which would provide funding for comprehensive, medically accurate sexuality education.
    ·Senator Obama is also a co-sponsor of the Prevention First Act, which is a package of legislation that seeks to prevent unintended pregnancy and increase access to comprehensive contraceptive services and information.
    ·Senator Obama firmly opposes federal funding for abstinence-only-until-marriage programs[2] and has stated that “it’s the right thing to do…to provide age-appropriate sex education, science-based sex education in schools.”[3]
    ·He supports sex education for younger ages, but only if it is age-appropriate, and has indicated that his position is based on the fact that age-appropriate comprehensive sex education includes such topics as learning the difference between appropriate and inappropriate touching to educate young children on what to do should they ever be faced with an abusive situation.[4]

    I don't see anything wrong with introducing sex ed early. I remember when I learned about sex, I was about that age (around 1st-2nd grade). Someone at school mention "SEX" and I ask my mother what it was. At first she was like WTF, but continued to explained what it was. She knew that if she didn't explain it then, I would of learned about it somewhere else, since that was already the topic of some of the kid's minds.

    The point is, I agree kids develop at different rates, but what if your kid encounters another kid that's more developed? The younger someone is, the easier it is to influence them. So I'm for educating the young about sex correctly (maybe not 5 year olds, but you get my point).
