Quote:My daughter's sex education began at age 9, in the home, with me discussing the mechanical and biological issues since my wife was feeling skittish and I wanted to get the message out before she hit puberty, and before it became a catch up game vis a vis other kids and school.An admirable goal. I imagine doing something similar myself if I should be so lucky to have children some day. From a pedagogic point of view, I imagine equipping one's child with bits and pieces of knowledge prior to their formal schooling will only foster a sense of pride and confidence, but also a sense of generosity of spirit, by allowing them to share information other pupils didn't learn at home due to a more 'traditional' approach to upbringing.
Quote:I wanted her smarter than the other kids on that one, know what I mean?I do.
Quote:How is that degree going at university?
All done. I'm a high school teacher now. Received my degree in the mail. Folded it up and put it under the tilted dinner table. Works like a charm! 6 years of university finally paid off!:)
