I was in 5th grade when my dad told me about the Nuremberg trials and the subsequent Milgram experiments.
Edit Wtf you sick perverts, I was talking about when your parents talk to you about authority bias and how you need to be suspicious of power structures that tell you to do things that you would normally consider horrible acts.
Jesus you can’t talk about Nazis without someone dragging out Sex Ed these days smh
My dad never gave me “the talk.” It was my mother. According to her, when I was around 7-8 years old, she overheard one of my friends making crude remarks about having sex with women. And he didn’t understand how a woman’s biology worked, so he was extremely inaccurate in his description of the act.
My mother decided at that moment that I needed a lesson in how sex actually works, so she went out and bought an educational children’s book about where babies come from. Then she sat me down and read through it with me.
Honestly, I kind of like the fact that I was taught so young. I was already mature for my age, and being taught before I was a ball of raging hormones meant that I could comprehend it from an educational standpoint and not a “what’s wrong with my body/I need to get laid” mindset.
My school didn’t teach sex education until 8th grade. By then, everyone was horny as hell and making poor decisions. Because I already understood how it all works (and no one wanted to ask our teacher all the embarrassing questions), I ended up being a bit of a relationship counselor for my friends.
How does this have anything to do with the Nuremberg trials?
It doesn’t, but then again, no one else seemed to be talking about them either, so I decided to contribute to the main discussion in the comments.
OP edited the post two and half hours after putting it up to make it something else entirely.
Nope, the edit was shaming everyone for their dirty, dirty minds. Right to the gutter they go. It says right there where I write edit
Btw this post, and thread, is filled with silly geese
Is 8 considered early? My kid is 6 and I am starting to feel like we have waited too long already.
Here in America? It’s super early. Americans don’t like to talk about sex with children, so they wait until we’re already experiencing puberty to finally tell us what’s going on. Hence why my Sex Ed class was in 8th grade (around 13-14 years old).
What the hell?
