U.S. could lose democracy status, says global watchdog
You're viewing a single thread.
And a few days after that, PragerU releases a video titled "Why democracies will fail eventually", which tells its viewers that democracy creates "moral decadence", and now a "strong leader" is needed to fix the issue, who might have told some noble lies like a parent tells their kid the stork brings the children when they're not ready for reality. And the video ends with a "Roman salute" over "God Bless America".
People tell their kids the stork brings babies because the parent is the one not ready to have the conversation.
The parent is avoiding their own humiliation. Telling kids how babies are made is not embarassing for kids. Kids have no reason to feel shame or judgement about these kinds of things….
Just pointing this out to show that the metaphor here is deeply flawed.
3-4 year olds don’t need to know about birds and the bees
Sex, procreation is not a horrible perverted thing. It’s biology, science, and should be explained as soon as they’re curious enough to ask.
Lots of 3 to 4 year olds are perfectly aware that they have a future sibling brewing in mom's tummy.
Knowledge of bodily functions seems to concern you. That is your problem, not the kids.
It literally matters zero percent if kids know how bodies function.
The fear and judgement is all in your head lol.
It’s not even the matter of how the body works it can lead to them watching porn and shit early on which isn’t good cause kids are curious and google exists literally speaking from personal experience I was told way to early on by older friends and it lead to shit I don’t need to get into
No
That's the problem. You were told by friends who left you with questions you answered in unsafe ways, not by adults who could answer your questions in an age appropriate way.
Giving kids age-appropriate sex-ed is a good way to protect them against predators. Many victims don't even know something wrong has been done to them because people like you are too afraid to give them the barest guidance.
Dude, they'll watch porn either way probably. It's more likely if you make it taboo that they'll get into some weird shit. If it's normalized then it's not some mysterious thing they need to discover on their own. Your thought process is what leads to kids watching porn too young. They're going to learn about it, like you did from older friends. If your parents made it normal to discuss maybe you'd be healthier.
You need some therapy. Telling kids the truth about how our bodies work early on doesn’t harm them, but maybe your parents not talking to you about it and your older friends having to do it, perhaps in a crude way, is what led to that shit you don’t need to get into.
I was told way to early on by older friends
There's your problem.
You were clearly abused by the church :(. I’m sorry that happened to you.
Lol, tell me you've never been on a farm without telling me.
3-4 year olds don’t need to know about birds and the bees
Why not? It's interesting and biology is part of the natural world around us.
Some kids probably won't care but others will be super interested. Start the conversation and see where it leads.
I hate that I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or if this really happened
