That is absolutely horrible. I do not understand why any one would put that book on their shelves or even what the author was thinking!!!koltonsmommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08191078618803618245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6676169243350415334.post-70936549786365736352010-05-10T00:34:01.057-05:002010-05-10T00:34:01.057-05:00As an aspiring sex therapist, Social Work major, a...As an aspiring sex therapist, Social Work major, and from a 19 year old's perspective, I ALSO COMPLETELY AGREE!!! Obviously, with being in tune with learning as much as I can about the mechanics and everything else that has to do with sex, I very strongly believe in education and protection, but I also feel that there is such thing as "stealing a child's innocence." Your daughter is 4? That's what too young! My mother is a RN and she taught me about sex when I was 11 or 12, if i remember correctly. At that age I still thought it was disgusting; I couldn't imagine what a 4 year old would conjure up in their mind! A boundary should be in place and I feel that most parents are just thinking, "Well, I should be the democratic, contemporary parent and teach my child early about sex." Problem: There is such thing as TOO early and her brain has not developed enough to the point of being able to understand everything she needs to know about sex. I feel a distorted image of what sex really is and what it should be would result as well. <br /><br />Check out my blog: http://ltyndall.blogspot.com/<br /><br />Really loved the post!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6676169243350415334.post-7735058136193685912010-05-08T08:26:10.104-05:002010-05-08T08:26:10.104-05:00OH MY WORD!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't think you are ...OH MY WORD!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't think you are overacting or crazy. That is the worst thing in the world. I agree that there is a time and place for everything and it is not in preschool or kindergarten. If I had the talent for homeschooling (trust me I have tried and do not), I would probably look at doing this. All I can do is be very, very active in Addison's school and pray that it will be okay. I have heard nothing but wonderful things about the Maize schools so for now I feel good about the decision to send her there. <br /><br />That book just makes me sick too!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03764075387620750938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6676169243350415334.post-70976558568189155812010-05-07T17:55:21.914-05:002010-05-07T17:55:21.914-05:00I'd like to send a letter to Border's and ...I'd like to send a letter to Border's and tell them not to stock the book, and send a letter to OneMillionMoms. They fight for stuff like this, and in their FAQ section on their website they openly state that they do it to promote biblical truths.<br /><br />Wow. That makes me kinda sick.<br /><br />And as far as learning that stuff in school, it makes me really appreciative that John and I both agree on homeschooling our kids. Not just for those reasons alone, but a lot of others. There will come a time when we let go and let them into the world to make their own choices. I think that six years old is not old enough, especially with a book like that around! Yikes!Rebekahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12473435852720086124noreply@blogger.com
