By the 7th grade, I suspect most kids know as much about sex, as most of the people on USMB.As a high school teacher I think parents/adults would be SHOCKED if they heard what the students know/do.

And? Do you really think that some (not all) 11 year olds don't know about sex?
Better yet here's what I'm curious about:
-When do you suppose is an appropriate age to start talking about sex in schools?
-Why do adults tend to make sex into this big taboo subject, when it's a very normal part of humanity?
The anal sex part went overboard (assuming I believe the article)--I'd probably agree with that.
A Gallup Poll finds over 60% of parents are in favor of sex education taught in schools. Other polls show even higher numbers. State laws as well local school district regulation vary greatly. In 3 states, parental approval is required before a student attends a sex education class. In some states, abstinence only sex education is taught and in other states abstinence only education is forbidden.. Some states require only safe sex education and other leave it up to the district.Students at one northern California high school are learning more than just the birds and the bees.
Along with local area groups, some parents are irate that their children’s sex ed class at Acalanes High School in Lafayette is being taught by employees of Planned Parenthood without their prior knowledge. They are also fuming over the methods and materials being used, including a checklist that asks students if they are “ready for sex” and another worksheet that describes how to give and obtain consent, as well as a diagram that uses a "genderbread" person for lessons in gender identity.
“[Parents] are very concerned,” Brad Dacus, president of the Pacific Justice Institute, a non-profit legal organization that is assisting the concerned parents, told FoxNews.com. “Planned Parenthood is not exactly the best when it comes to putting young people first.
“They get more grants from the promiscuity of children,” he added. “The material they have provided was material that mirrored their agenda.”

Chicago Parents Outraged Over Fifth Grade Sex Ed Class Teaching Age Appropriate Joys of Female Condoms Anal Sex Lube Scared Monkeys
"Parents got quite the eye-opening education this past Wednesday at the Andrew Jackson Language Academy, one of the city’s elite magnet schools. The school hosted a meeting on Chicago Public Schools’ newest sex ed curriculum to give parents a sneak peak at the upcoming sex-education curriculum that 10 and 11 year old Johnny and Suzie would be learning. To the parents shock, the binder they were provided of so-called age appropriate information included the benefits of female condoms for extending sex, increasing pleasure and encouraged using lubrication. Then there was the use of female condoms for anal sex. YIKES!!! My how the times have changed and not for the better. When one parent, Amy Miller, got a close look at what her daughter might learn she said,
“To tell my 5th-grader, who’s still into ‘Little House on the Prairie,’ that it’s OK to have safe anal sex — I’m sorry. That’s just not appropriate.”"

Officials have said parents can opt their children out of school sex-ed classes by providing written notice to a school.

Yep. My son had "the talk" with his two boys in middle school. He said it lasted about 5 minutes. Sex education in their school is a few hours with the PE instructor covering the horrors of premarital sex and sexual transmitted disease which became an endless source of jokes for the kids.Students at one northern California high school are learning more than just the birds and the bees.

If you have a kid in high school I promise you that they know A LOT about sex. Including anal, oral, 3-somes, etc. Teenagers in high school aren't "kids" anymore. They grow up. MANY parents are in denial about this, and they're shocked when they learn what their Johnny/Sally did in school. They then assume that the teacher(s) or adminstration is lying. I can tell you that the majority of my troubled kids (behavior wise or sex wise) are the parents who say "not my <insert name>! They would NEVER do that!" My response is "well they did...."
Very sad what parenting has come to. So many parents have their heads in the sand.
