Our son will soon be turning 10 in August this year.
We attended a school update today that they will be taught sexsual facts in this term over a period of 6wks and we saw the VDOs they will be shown. Sitting among other parents we were bit stunned that they will be taught the meaning of erection, masturbation, homosexuality, making babies amoung many other things. We off course have the choice of deciding if we want our son to take these classes.
How did I learn these? I learnts these in bits and pieces from dictionaries, my elder, porngraphic book that I found at home(!!), friend and observing (so sad and repulsive to think of all thoese wasted years due to this recurring sessions!!) uncle doing it with aunt!! I believe this made me waste vital days in my formative years and stunted by growth and education. I dont wish this to happen to anyone else.
So it sounds right that he will be learning in a caring and secured class environment with his friend. However, not sure if he should see people (in cartoon) in the act at this stage? We have seen that he says words like gay, virginity etc without fully understanding what it means and probably it will take some more time for him to understand these. Our little boy is at the threshhold of teenge years and we get more worried as he takes steps towards independence. It is right of passage we understand but being a father, deep in our hearts we want them to stay as child in our protection. I know we have to make the transition and trust that he is getting well equiped to handles the demands of life going forward but this grwoing for us is quite challening.
Will I keep him aways from these classes? probably not but may be from some of the modules. There are situations like this with no obvious right or wrong, where we have to trust our guts and draw energy from the Power Supreme to decide the course to take. Literally.
