Parents say No...to the sexual education content coming to elementary schools in Sept 2017

Parents say No...to the sexual education content coming to elementary schools in Sept 2017

The Issue

In September 2017, Québecs' ministry of education is introducing (mandatory), sex education content  in our elementary schools. It will not have a specific class but will be integrated into daily subjects.  Below is the link with the outline of the content on the website of the Ministry of Education.

 As a parent, I agree  that children should have knowledge with changing times , but I also believe that some material is sensitive, and not age appropriate that may lead to confusion and unnecessary curiosity amongst our little ones .We all have family values , traditions and different faiths. We decide what's appropriate not a system.  Join me in voicing your concern by putting a hold to this program until the Ministry of education consults the primary teachers (us parents) !
