Rejected petition Make Relationship and Sex education optional rather than compulsory in schools

The DfE have proposed that schools are required to teach relationships education at primary school, relationships and sex education at secondary school and health education at all state-funded schools.

More details

As parents, we should have the right of choice to teach our children about relationships including sexual relationships but seems though the state have decided for us parents. It is a strategic movement taking place to brainwash our children especially those from religious backgrounds.
Children from the age of 4 onwards do not need to know about pornography, sexual relationships, or LGBT at such young age. Psychologically this will ruin their innocent minds and cause more damage than good.
