Children as young as Five to be taught about sex! Has the UN gone ‘Bonkers’?

Has the world gone bonkers?

Children as young as five should be taught about explicit sex acts, according to the guidelines from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO).
These outrageous guidelines are due to be issued to governments, local authorities and education bodies around the world by end of next month. The report recommends teachers to begin discussing subjects such as masturbation with children from the age of five. How ridiculous?


According to the Daily Mail reporter, the UNESCO report recommends teachers should discuss the idea that ‘girls and boys have private body parts that can feel pleasurable when touched by oneself’.

In which world did these people at UNESCO grow up in? I don’t think their parents taught them about these sexual acts at such age? What does five yer old stand to benefit from teaching them about masturbation?

At the age of 12, teachers are expected to be covering issues such as ‘access to safe abortion and post-abortion care’ and the ‘use and misuse of emergency contraception’. Children should learn about the ‘right to and access to safe abortion’.

The report is intended to help countries improve sex education and sexual health, especially in the developing world.

It is just ridiculous to even think about talking to five year olds about sex. Will this work in our own Zimbabwe? I don’t think so, even older people don’t talk about some of these sexual acts. Very ‘inappropriate’ recommendations.
