[quote=Anonymous]Based on these responses it sounds like some of these posters don't have kids in the mentioned age groups. Kids in grades 4-6 are notoriously embarrassed, grossed out and/or completely uncomfortable discussing changes in the body and seeing/hearing about romantic relationships at these ages. They can be uninhibited at home about their bodies but still be overwhelmed and embarrassed by these topics in public and particularly in front of the opposite sex when they're just starting to have crushes and notice changes in the bodies around them. Its not about "brainwashing" kids at home but rather making a space that will allow kids to be comfortable asking questions. Girls should absolutely get the boys' information in a girls only setting and vice versa for boys getting the girls' information. [/quote]
