Should teach kids things that are useful not more brain rot.
Good. Children that age don’t need to know about gender theories.
Annoying that we have to have news articles saying X is not on a primary school curriculum because we have a bunch of idiots online trying to fear monger.
This is all distraction. Nothing has changed, they’re just distracting you from *gestures to everything*
The Gender Recognition Act has been law for nearly a decade. Very disappointing that there’s still an attitude in favour of hiding the existence of transgender people from children.
Disappointing but not unsurprising
Why would it be on the primary school curriculum at all? Isn’t biology and sex ed usually kept for secondary school? Don’t get me wrong, I have two primary kids and they both know that sometimes men want to marry other men instead of women and they both know that sometimes a person might want to change from a man to a woman. They understand the first one because girls are gross. They can’t comprehend the second one for the same reason. What else do they need to know at that age?
Edit: Seems things have changed a little from when I was a boy. Kids now get the birds and the bees talk in primary school instead of from their parents. That makes it a bit trickier. But I still don’t know why you would bring a conversation about gender and sexuality into a lesson about the mechanics of puberty and reproduction. On the other hand, kids might have questions about those topics that teachers would need to handle so it might be best to include them.
As a Father of a non-binary teenager, I had to become more transparent when dealing with sensitive issues..
Why is this even a story? What ‘journalist’ feels this is something worth reporting?
how dare they not give me something to be outraged about?
What is this country coming to?
Sex education was always coloured by the views of the person delivering it when I was in school. Lead to some pretty bleak lectures from some very religious people. Maybe this should be contracted in and delivered by an outside dedicated unit.
> By contrast, other focus group participants said sexuality education should be taught at home by parents rather than at school. It was stated family and religious values could be affected by such a programme and it could “cause a big split within classes”.
The people who think sex education shouldn’t be taught in schools are also the people I would least trust to teach children adequate sex education at home.
My 6 year olds understand gender idenity there’s really no need to leave it out its not difficult to understand and it doesn’t confuse them. If you ask them they’ll tell you exactly what they are if they trust you and know youll accept them they’ll tell you. I’ve only seen it get “confusing” when they don’t feel safe around someone and feel they need to not say it out loud because they aren’t around safe people.
There’s 2 genders.
That’s all that needs to be said lol
Good, doesn’t belong there anyways.
