Rejected petition Stop children having sex education so young and children's self touching lessons
Children need to be children they should not be taught sex education at such a young age in primary school. It can lead the child into dangerous situations especially with children that have obsessions as lessons such as self touching lessons can lead to this.
More details
Self touching lessons not only can cause psychological damage to children with obsessions but can also lead the child to potentially hurt their private parts or lead to medical problems from dirty fingers and nails. It may also lead to early sexual behaviour. If this is what is going to be taught in schools we are taking away children's childhoods we are not allowing children to be children.They should not have to have stuff like this drummed into their heads they should be playing having fun.
