[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's really horrifying is that some kids don't learn about this at home, from a parent/caretaker. I get that we need it taught in schools because it's basic info everyone truly needs to know, but when we talk about more or less instructional time being lost to teach about it it just hits home how much basic info some families punt to schools to teach their kids.

My kids have known about male/female anatomical differences and details of human reproduction since at least age 8. Why is this info so rarefied and secret??[/quote]

So you discussed nocturnal emissions with your 8 year old daughter? And your 8 year old son knows that menstruation is the shedding of the uterus lining due to no egg being fertilized? Did you also discuss STDs too?[/quote]

DP. But yes. The egg thing came up pretty early on in our family when kids could see mom has her period. Erections came up in late ESs. STDs came up not much later.

We have always been open and honest about bodies, reproduction, etc.
