I completely agree, I got involved with sex when I was 11, completely ruined my life! I was stuck with images ruining my thinking trace and everything!\nI even found that scientists have proved, that just seeing a pornographic picture and completely change the way your brain cells are functioned.\nChildren don't need their brains to be changed at an age where they're still learning, they don't even need to see anything about it unless it's with their spouse.

wow?    10 year old?  5th grade?\n\nisnt that a bit early?\ni must say,  no matter what you tell a kid that young, they wont understand it.  they started teaching me that stuff in 6th grade.  and i didnt understand it then.  i think they really start to get it 7th or 8th.  but tell them how easy it is to get stds.  how many people have it.  (you have to look that up cause i dont know that)  and tell them what to use.  and if i were you, tell them to never have sex until they are married.  that is the best thing to tell them.     good luck.\n\ni still think that 5th grade/10 years old is still to young.  they should introduce that end of 6th grade.

Y.A. seems to be a pretty effective venue for STD education.  There appear to be a lot of young people here, and variations of the STD question are asked frequently.  The anonymity offered here seems to make it 'safe' to ask the taboo question.\n\nWord of mouth can be a very powerful educational tool.

I personally think it's a good thing that people are asking questions. Reguardless of age. You dont know who is asking these questions. Not many families talk to their children about sex. Kids go out there and try and learn from the tv or whatever. Its people that aren't educated about sex that are out there spreading diseases. The more knowledge someone has on a topic the better off they are. Knowledge is power folks. Whatever questions you have, if I have something to offer I will give my best and honest answer I can. I think that's the reason for a site of this nature.

I think its because parents are so embarrassed about sex. I think the boy probably was cool with it until everybody started telling him it was bad. How would you like to tell everybody every little detail about your sex life?

Okay... this is the millennium... Kids are having sex.  I think that condoms should defiantly be avail.  For all the obvious reasons of course.  If you really think having condoms available is encouraging promiscuity then think again.  It's all over TV, then there's peer pressure and raging hormones.  NO I'm not giving kids an excuse to have sex, but face it there are too many kids having kids.

I'm not aware that children at age 6 are receiving any official/formal training in sex education.\n\nMy concern at this point is that the child is learning this from another student or worse yet, an adult who is not authorized to do this sort of teaching.\n\nI might want to sit down with the parents of this child in a comfortable non aggressive/threatening environment and find out what the child meant when he said this and where he gained this information.\n\nThis can range from the simple act of bringing the matter to teachers and administration at the school to the leveling of charges against an adult who had less than pleasant intentions with the child.\n\nGood luck with this.\n\nLove as always,\n\nSebastian

Any question that includes the words 'children' and 'sexuality' should ring alarm bells, especially when posted on a web site. Get help before you get into trouble.

I like a healthy debate. Although i agree that the childishness is annoying. I just ignore those and report the obscene or insulting. I would highly recommend others do the same. When the adolescents post the crude questions, I would highly recommend the more mature of us just ignore and report accordingly. Do not give them the satisfaction of an answer.

Yes! Great idea. Then I could ask all of my naughty questions without getting in trouble.\n\nBut there is really no way to enforce it. You know if the kids saw a section for adults only, it would be the first place they went.

It should be taught in school that the act of sex is sacred and should be considered a very special moment between a man a wife.  Kids that young are too imature to completely understand how complicated it is.  That is why the school systems/governements shouldn't be giving out birth control, or saying it's ok if you get pregnant and want to have an abortion.  What ever happened to suffering the consequences of making bad decisions?  That is how you grow as a person.  It's ok to make mistakes if you own up to them.  The solution is to not make sex seem like such a casual thing, so that young people don't find it so acceptable. There is still hope.

Sometimes I get on "News Discuss" and the profanity is the worst I have ever read. They call it "trolling" as an excuse. Sometimes young people are interested in the topics also and all they have to do is depress the "Discuss" icon and they are in the discussion board. \nAlso when I surf the web for certain topics, some of the titles are inviting you to a porn site or anything that is not recommended for innocent children. Parents can program the computer, but some of these kids nowadays know more about computers than older people. Some children can override their parents desires by out-computing their parents. Something has to be done\n\nAbsoultely nothing. If parents are afraid their children are being exposed to something questionable, then the parents should make a point of supervising their children whenever possible. It might not be a perfect plan, but it's better than censorship

That's a dumb idea. The more you try to FORCE kids not to do something the more they'll oppose and do it.\n\nBest way is to show and provide ways to prevent pregnancy all together.

I believe that it is used too much, about 80% of our advertising. Our kids are exposed to more than even some of us were in the 1980s and 1990s. They know more about sex that some people knew when they got married. The use of sex in our culture has caused us to be desensitized to our lives.
