The article is not suggesting actual sterilisation just long term contraceptives that last for a few years such as the contraceptive injection rather than the pill which has to be taken every day.....I would need to know more about this injection though before encouraging my daughter to have it.

Jay that is unbelievable that they would even consider giving sex education to 5 year olds!
What the hell is the point?
I'm pretty sure i had no idea what sex was at that age and wouldn't of wanted to know either!
What happened to innocence of youth?

Sex education for 5 year olds does sound shocking but the reality is not as shocking as it sounded in that article a few weeks ago. They weren't suggesting talking explicitly about sex to 5 year olds, just talking about body parts and their names, babies growing in mummy's tummy....it would all be age appropriate.
