That is Horrible! Fist its not the schools business, second theses are little kids, they should not be sexually active and if truth be known i would bet very few are. Someone needs to be Tar Feathered and run out of town on a rail, firing is too lenient.

I could not agree more. Kids engaging in oral sex have probably been abused.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - What business is this information to the Boston Public Schools? What will be done with this information?

Maj John Bell It is used to structure sex Ed curriculums. You must understand the audience if you expect to craft a course that meets the needs of the students you're teaching. Abstinence may sound great but not if your going to teach students who are already actively engaged in sexual activity.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - As I said, it is my belief that the school's place is to talk about biology, not sexual technique.

What specifically are you expecting the school to teach if:
-the kid's are engaging in oral sex? Or if they are not?
-the kids are transgender? Or if they are not?
-the kid's are LGBTQIA+? Or if they are not?

Will you separate them into classes? Kids who perform fellatio go to classroom A. Cunnilingus classroom C. etc. etc. etc.

That seems to me you are then advocating instruction in sexual technique. Once again, NOT the school's place and I seriously doubt that sexually active school kids really need any assistance on technique.

We ask the schools to teach pre-teens about sex but we expect them to only teach conservative morality in the classes?

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - Sex is not in the picture with many kids as parents today are more afraid of the boogey man and keep a tighter rein. I was already doing overnights with friends at my daughters age and the only time I have met her friends now was at a school sponsored science camp. I am right there with you we need to consider all things bad but I feel today there are less opportunities for sex than 40 yrs ago when I was there age. My children are not perfect angels and last night I had the discussion with my 7th grader about unprotected sex and how being a teenage dad will destroy his life goals. Not a discussion I need the school having.

MAJ Byron Oyler I agree it's parents responsibility, but for many families, like with breakfasts and lunches, if the kids don't get it in school they don't get it at all.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - I hear you Sir however working with lower socioeconomic families the government taking over responsibility is helping in the end far fewer than it helps. More and more children are watching how their parents do nothing and it does set an example in these communities.
