oh no don't get me wrong i agree 100% with you on how great they are. my oldest son is just about to reach puberty i think.. and i came across this while looking for helpful links. never thought i would find something like that in a million years, all i have to do now is send it to my son without embarrasing the poor kid.

i thought that was one of those joke things when i watched it than looked at the URL. Mmm. dont quite know if thats a good teaching method or not. I spose it might well be. It might make stuff seem a lot more relaxed for young people and not so much of a big deal...

I think sex education shouldent just be about the facts. You have to become content with what you got cause you cant change it or get a new one. more emptasis on being happy with who you are is needed i belive...ahmet gets off of his soap box and smokes a ciggy tongue

Thats a very good point there jim.

The facts are important and i suppose that letting kids figgure the stuff out for them selfevs would be the easir method of dealing with such a difficult situation.

This is a very intresting topic if you think about it, so many diffrent angels, im sure evreyone has a view on this but as you said its such a personal subject that it would be difficult not to have so many diffrent views.

thanks for the link, what i have done is sent him a very nice non mother embarrasing email saying that he can always talk to me about anything, which it must be said he usualy does. We had the sex talk when he was 7, my theory is when they are old enough to ask then they are old enough to know, of cause keeping the info age approprate. any back to the email, after i said that i also put that if he ever feels that he can not talk to me about some stuff here are some links that may be able to help with the changes he is going through.

I am not sure how other parents deal with this kind of thing and out of all my friends i have the oldest child so i kind of try everything and then pass it on to the next person who needs it. and i mean every thing from getting rid of dummies to getting boys to aim in the loo (blth my kids are boys so very important)

if i know my son though he will right down the links and show them to his friends in computer class just to embarras the teachers. He makes me so proud smile

I'm afraid have to disagree Ahmet. I think the only reliable way to teach sex education is soley the facts. Sex is such a personal issue, and the way people deal with it is so variable, that giving the facts is the only way to go. I agree that people need to be happy with who they are but you simply can't teach that. That is something a lot more complex which doesn't come under the scope of education. I also think however that 'averages' do nothing to quell the fears of many kids, and the facts which are presented should never relate to a 'normal' which kids feel the need to conform to. If anything, pointing out the facts about how variable and personal a subject it is, is the way to go.




it would be so much eaiser if a happy medium could be made where they shouldn't feel so much pressure about looking like every one else, but its hard. my kids get it all the time about something as simple as how i look, so when it comes to personal things on a different level it makes it even harder. the best thing is knowing your child and working with it, i don't think teachers give kids the credit they need so i feel the parent must play an important part in making sure the kids have a varied amount of infomation...age appropraite... from different sources and points of view. they have brains and should always have the back up of the parent.

We did get taught this at school, however it was never made explicity clear that this was the subject. It was all metaphors and analogies which could be interpreted in a number of ways. They were relying on the fact that during puberty (and here I can speak only for the blokes) everything somehow relates to sex and the size of your bits. It did for me, but then I'm very insecure...




i think our sex ed would of been better if we had unisex classes, i think boys and girls should know what each other has to go through
