sex education, how much is too much?

So our sex Ed program in Ontario sounds grossly outdated. Recently I came across what was trying to be pushed through and I honestly did get mixed feelings. On the one hand I think it's great that it's being updated and modernized to accommodate more than just straight people. But at the same time I feel the content might be too heavy for children and too explicit. I think it's nice that there will be more resources for children who may be experiencing gender related issues but I'm also wondering if that might make more problems than there actually are. Making someone question their gender would be more harmful than actually just having an elective course for people already questioning their genders. Anyway what do you guys think. Remember, this isn't just about having safe sex, it's about teaching children about masturbation, sexting, and even genital names to 6 year olds.

  • At 6 years old this program runs the risk of desensitizing children. While it may be better for societal views on homosexuality, it may have a good chance at stunting the development of empathy if it's not done correctly.
