Both my boys had a wonderful sex education curriculum in elementary school
beginning in the 4th grade, as well as a thorough religous education:
values, bar mitzvahs, the whole bit.. They know everything there is to know
about sex and pregnancy, can discuss it with mom or dad if they have to, and
have no intention of creating life without taking responsibility for it. I
totally agree that a combination of family and outside education is optimal.
Now if I could only convince them that homeopathy has efficacy (their
healings don't seem to register with them, and there ain't no institutional
support for same -- it's a quirk of mom's rather than a cultural paradigm),
we'd be all set.
