And here I thought seeing the naked bodies of my parents was traumatic.....I couldn't imagine seeing the ole bulldog eating mayonnaise, my god, poor kid

Re: The birds and the bees.
So effing what ? You think farmers in medieval times had sex in private ? You think farmers/poor people in third world countries have much privacy ? I've been to a real Cuban farm, the walls were made of paper and had a lot of holes...
If they forced the child to watch then it's quite obviously wrong, if they just let her, so effing what ?

Kudos to you sir.

Chill pill brother. Most cultures that have a bit more space-per-person don't do the adult play thing in front of the child. Either the child doesn't understand -- and it would mean little to them and be a waste of time -- or they do understand and they're forced to confront issues that implicitly involve them. In cultures where less privacy is possible, the rules are of course different.

Re: The birds and the bees.
Isn't anyone going to speak in favour of home skooling ?
After all there are plenty who object to the education authorities deciding what , when and how their kids are taught about sex .
Re: The birds and the bees.
Not me. But I will speak in opposition to whatever schooling you received.
JK of course.. :P
Re: The birds and the bees.
Why would anyone do that?
I myself am in favour of public schools, sex is a natural thing(though I still wouldn't want to watch my parents...) and authorities are called authorities because they have a certain authority.
I would only see a problem if they did anything to encourage her to have sex at the age of 9, arguably letting her witness it and the joy that comes with it does exactly that.
And doc, in medieval times they also threw their faeces onto the street, should we adapt that as well because it was so much better back then?

Re: The birds and the bees.
Cultural diversity is a great thing. So is parental guidance on sex education for their children. However, in this case, the parents are certainly not acting within this culture's norms. They are merely being put on notice to "alter the lesson plan" a bit. The ex-husband, judge, and community are showing reasonable concern for the welfare of this child.
Knowing children's propensity for innocently saying the darnedest things at the most inconvenient ocassions. Social gatherings that may include any implied or alluded reference to intimacy or babies etc. could be quite amusing when this one decides to chime in with her new found explicit knowledge on the subject.Boy, will grandma be surprised...

Re: The birds and the bees.
because home skoolin rulez when it comes to not letting the evil godless government telling your kids to use contraception be gay and have abortions .Why would anyone do that?
Re: The birds and the bees.
Gah!
Re: The birds and the bees.
Heh, I was pretty drunk, I still stand by my point though, are we going to enforce sound proof walls next ?
As if tv shows/mtv clips/pop songs etc. are so subtle these days. All kids here are rumours and bragging about sex from celebrities, as if the image they get that way is healthy. While I don't actually support having sex in front of children (I'm pretty indifferent, though slightly leaning to 'it should be avoided') the cultural norms are ridicoulous. Kids hear about sex every single day, multiple times, they see it simulated in movies and video clips, they can see porn stars getting it on on the 'net (seriously, just try to shield a kid from that these days), but suddenly two normal people having, what i assume to be 'normal', sex where a kid can see it is a reason for sentencing ? Talk about hypocrisy.
