The Video

I am trying to find a new out look on sex education in schools because it has been an issue for so long. Then I thought about the video I watched in 4th grade. The boys and girls were divided into different rooms and parents were invited to watch the video as well. I remember having no clue what this video was about. Once I watched it, I had a lot of questions. So here is my question now, should we even show that video at such a young age. I realize it's about puberty but we don't go through it in 4th grade. That is a question to ask parents and see what they think about that.

I was looking for that video on youtube because I couldn't remember what it was about. When I found the video, I was asked to use my youtube account because you have to be 18 yrs or older to watch it. STRANGE. If we can see it in 4th grade, why can't I watch it online.

Anyways I know I am talking about a whole lot of nothing but it's because the school systems just need to make a choice and stick with it. Parents are always going to fight the school system no matter what. I think if it's a mandatory class that tells you the outs and ends of sex, then parents can prepare their child before they take it. Talking about the birds and the bees is apart of life.

I think public schools systems are afraid to teach this matter because of parents. But if parents don't like what public schools are doing...then they can send their kids to a private school. I still haven't taken a stand on this issue yet because morals always play a role. Lets just say I feel bad for the professor who has to teach putting a condom on a banana to a bunch of high school kids.
