[quote=Anonymous]Definitely talk to him before he starts 5th grade! Fifth grade is a whole different ballgame from the rest of elementary school. There will be an explosion of cursing and sexual innuendo among the kids. This is when they really start pushing boundaries. The kids who don’t get jokes about sexual terms can be laughed at. It’s very important that you not only teach him the basics of puberty, sex, reproduction, STIs, healthy relationships, consent, etc., but that you’ve taught him about good/bad touch, red flags to look for, what to do if anyone wants to do things that make him uncomfortable.[/quote]
