Sex education in elementary school

To the Editor:

It’s hard to understand how the school boards decide what our children MUST learn. It appears that kids starting at 11-12 years old must learn about “homosexuality, lesbianism, abortion and masturbation” when a large percent can’t read, write or understand math at a proficient level. I may be too old to understand their reasoning, but I fail to see how substituting sex education for the basics of how to earn a living makes sense. I guess it will make them more tolerant and inclusive while they’re standing on the corner begging for money.
