[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is MoCo pushing a book about sexuality for 5th graders going into 6th grade.  I’m not having my kid read this book, and I find it extremely concerning that MoCo is pushing this.  What is middle school going to be like?  Are you not cool if you aren’t LGBT or gasp not yet sexual as a pre teen?  What are other parents doing to complain.  [/quote]
My rising 4th grader and her friends discuss sexuality (NOT sex). They're at an all-girls school and have open discussions about sexuality and how they feel. My daughter also talks openly with me about what she and her friends talk about. I've created an environment where she's comfortable asking me ANYTHING because I'd rather she ask me than get misinformation elsewhere. I also have talks with her when I do audits of her text messages and phone calls. We're a hetero/cis-gen family (if I've written that incorrectly, I apologize).

You need to get a grip because your poor child is already having these conversations and may not feel comfortable talking to you about it.[/quote]

You're doing a great job at home. So are we. That has nothing to do with what should or shouldn't be taught at school. Different thread.[/quote]
