Rather, in the Province of Ontario, which is committed to introducing State Sponsored Pornography in our schools: in particular, graphic sex education for our young public schoolers.
This controversial curriculum, was first proposed by Kathleen Wynne while she was Education Minister in Dalton McGuinty’s Cabinet. Now that she is Premier, Wynne is proposing to move to its implementation.
And what exactly is she proposing?
- sex education beginning in grade 1 (6 year olds)
- discussions of gender identity and sexual orientation for those in grade 3 (8 year olds)
- explanation of masturbation and oral and anal sex for our grades 6 and 7.
No doubt all supported with props, charts and pictures.
Of interest, her sex-ed curriculum was formulated in 2010 when one of her key advisors was then Deputy Minister of Education – one Benjamin Levin. And this is the same Ben Levin, U of T Professor, who was recently charged with child pornography offences including the actual making of it.
For me, and I expect many of you, sex education should not be foisted on children below grade 6 and even for those in 6, 7 and 8, such education should not dwell on topics of masturbation / oral & anal sex.
If parents want to deal with those subjects with their own children – so be it. It is not though something our educators should be concerning themselves with.
This week British Prime Minister David Cameron came out with a challenge to protect children from the damage caused to them by internet pornography and good for him.
I wonder what he would think about our provincial government’s effort to spread pornography amongst our young kids in the guise of sex education?
Some final questions for you:
1. Do 6 year olds – still trying to learn how to tie their shoes – need sex ed?
2. Do 8 year olds – still playing with kiddie toys need to know about gays and transvestites?
3. Do 11 year olds need to be shown how to do anal sex safely?
If you said no to these questions I suggest you speak up before Premier Wynne is allowed to commit another grievous misstep one that could potentially scar a youngster forever.
As I see it…
