10 is not too young?
Not in today’s world IMO
Better to learn in a planned program — before finding it on the internet.

Better to indoctrinate children into being "sexual beings" at 10 years old, or younger since these demonrat programs even target kindergarten children?...
No thanks... Children should be taught to avoid people like you, or anyone else who thinks children should be sexualized...
People like you who think children should be taught to be sexualized shouldn't be teaching children anything at all.

Gender ID? Yes, they begin to notice boy and girl is different, this doesn't mean they need to have sex education or know about Transvestites and transexuals and have their minds warped to think they are not meant to be who they are etc..
If people like you and that Community weren't shoving it in their faces, they wouldn't even be thinking about what Gender they should be... no way at all. They would just be the boy or the girl they are.

Her kids have unfettered access to social media and their smart phones- they are being blasted with the notions that society is shoving down the throats of kids. Gay, bi, trans, whatever, anywhere in between, I don't really care. What I do care is that a child find him/herself before making declarations or choices that may follow him/her the rest of his/her life.
This sister in law tells her kids EVERYTHING. Nothing is off limits. Ages of the kids are 13, 11, 8 and 4. The oldest 2 had a really hard time when mom decided to teach them about sex, around the age of 5. Not a simple explanation, but way too detailed for the kids. They were simultaneously taught that sex is bad and you shouldn't think about.
Anyway, back to my point in replying, because I know these kids know every detail about their sister's experiences, and because I can tell the mother lavishes the attention she gets having "unique" kids,
I asked her to not encourage and to ask her kids to not talk to my children about mental health/relationships/ anything that should be reserved for their therapist. This was also prompted after my 11 year old spent some time with them and they had diagnosed her with a tic- like Tourette's tics. Sorry, just because your kids are effed up because you are effed up, it doesn't mean you get to impose it on my children. (I don’t denote mental illness as crazy, and I think most people suffer from some form of it. But I also see that she seems to have some form of Munchhausen's by proxy, as other’s have observed too.)
My oldest is 14 and I know she is aware of a lot of this stuff. I am not dumb. But, I don’t want my younger children influenced into accepting a label. A lot of kids feel awkward, as the preteen and teen years are awkward years. We are trying to find ourselves, and that is hard enough without thinking “Well, maybe I don’t fit in because I am gay, bi, trans...” If any of my children decide they are “fill in the blank”, that’s fine. I love them all, no matter what. But I don’t want them to identify with “fill in the blank” as a result of a social contagion that is spreading like wild fire. And these issue have been identified as such, and the specialists that have spoken up about it have been canceled and/or forced to retract their professional opinions.
Needless to say, I am now labeled as a homophobe by this woman and her kids. While the rest of her family agrees with me in trying to let my kids be children for as long as possible. My ex has floated the idea of halting contact with his sister and nieces, since it is too hard for them to not dump info that is not meant for little ears on our children. However, I hate to do that.
I still think the article is BS. But sex ed is nothing new in schools. In 1986 when I was in 5th grade we had sex ed day. Our parents had to sign a waver. We watched a video about the birds and the bee's and had a discussion on it. Out of 100 kids only 3 parents didn't sign the waver.

It isn't BS. A friend's daughter is taking Early Childhood Education at a local college. This is being addressed in her training. We were talking about it last Sunday. She's uncomfortable with it.
