Could it be that the school is small and has just enough budgeted for sex ed and drivers ed in the same car?

This is a very accurate depiction of the way many people are about sex ed.

Did you tell him the thingamajig is not a toy?

It’s a shop class now.

Yes it is obvious that you have told him all that you know. I fail to see how he could possibly learn anything further.

Parents had the right to opt out of sex education here in Florida. One mother chose to do it. She said her daughter was already far too interested in sex.My wife spoke to her and said that this would help her know how to avoid getting pregnant. The mother said, “I understand that but you know how April gets everything twisted around. I’m afraid it might make it even worse.”

My beloved had to agree that the lady had a point.

So that he doesn’t, when he is an adult with kids of his own, talk about sex with phrases like “you-know-what” and “thingamajig and what’s-it.”

Sir, he’s become confused. He needs the education because he’ cannot differentiate his thingamajig from his ding-a-ling.

and tell him he might go blind, and his thingamajic might have a mind of its own and… oh, nevermind, he will figure it out…

neither is the What’s-it

Show him where the cabbage patch is.

Considering that he takes the euphemistic approach to sex, I’m surprised he had offspring. Artificial insemination, maybe?

It’d even be nice to have people not use terms like junk and vah-jay-jay – which sound so much more distasteful than the real terms.

Our new curriculum has labs and we find the students always get their homework done for these classes.

Why indeed?

So he knows the whozzis and whatzzis.

the problem is gonna be, he didn’t tell him about the challywacker

LMAO!

The Republicans refuse sex education in school. The parents should teach it…but never do, so the kids pick it up on the school yard…and do not learn what it really is…and teen girls get pregnant. Smooth move Exlax!!

Well, one must be throughly indoctrinated with the latest in government propaganda to learn about the 18 genders that we now have and the 56,243 sexes, how they are different, and how giving teenagers hormone therapy is perfectly safe (despite NO evidence to support it).

I’m from a more progressive and enlightened time. The thingamajig was referred to its proper term (in a song) “my ding-a-ling”.

Parents know best.

His vague terminology is still far preferred to confusing a young person’s entire identity.

To unlearn him what you taught him.

What’s worse than ignorance is knowing things that aren’t so, and a lot of that comes from parents!

One time I was 17 years old. The big question is why does there have to be quizzes and grades on how to make other people. Do they want him to do it as a science project for school? Our teacher wanted us to always title are science project with a question. I can just see it. How do humans reproduce. If the project lends itself to experimentation, there were more points. I’m just being ornery because I know that would not be an acceptable science project.
