School District Considering Sex Education for Kindergartners: Possible curriculum changes spark outrage.

The National Review reports:
Clark County School District in Las Vegas is considering updating its curriculum to require a sex-education program for all kindergartners that teaches them how to masturbate.

Under the new curriculum, children ages 5 through 8 would be taught that “touching one’s genitals to feel good is called masturbation.”

Last week, dozens of parents went to the school board to express their horror, according to an article in the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

“You want to teach my 5-year-old how to masturbate?” parent Julie Butler said, according to the paper.

The masturbation information is just one part of more than 100 pages of changes the school is considering making to its sex-education policy. Other controversial suggestions include teaching kids ages 5 through 8 about homosexuality and homosexual attraction.
Who ever said the mission of public education was reading , writing, and math?
