[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]2nd grader boy attends a program outside of school. We are emailed that kids will do frog dissection. A teacher has teaching background on this science project and he raised all these frogs for this purposes. Parents are emailed/notified ahead to be given option to opt out. He has never seen a frog, and I am not sure if this project cause trauma or a wonderful experiences. I think they have enough frogs for this 20+ kids project. He has fishing before at camp, but he never touches bait and he releases fishes back to water. DH says he did not do frog dissection till high school. So any thoughts of opt out or not? My kid is the youngest child, 1-2 years younger than other kids. He gets into this project due to his academic giftness.

It does not depend on your child what he wants to do because he is too young to distinguish between what is right versus wrong. It is up to you as the parents to decide what values you want to inculcate in your child. If you want your child to learn respecting life no matter how big or small the life is, then that lesson starts at home, from you, and now. [/quote]
