That's like saying that because I know what a Big Mac is, I'll never care to get another.
Wtf. The moment I tried McDonalds fries, I was hooked. What are you thinking?
Many people eat less fast food once they know the health effects of consuming it.

Again, you are teaching them about desire at an age where most of them do not desire because they aren't old enough to really have those hormones.
That's the best age to teach them. Once they're invested in it, you're not going to convince them otherwise.
So should we make cannibalism and incest ordinary too? There is a reason why they are taboo.
Ordinary topics? Yes. Discuss them and determine why they're right or wrong. Don't just shy away from the subject because you're scared that discussion means promotion.

It's not rocket science and the parents made the child! I think we can explain the act we performed without perverts "butting" in, thanks!

The things that I could say to rebut that statement are not even allowed here, and would cause people to see my dark humor.

You're not arguing for reality. I don't even know what you're arguing for. But I do know you don't have experience.

Great. So come up with a mechanism to ensure every parent does so.

I'm arguing for parents getting out of the way and allowing schools to educate. If you don't like the way the school does it, maybe you should discuss it with your kid.
Being a prude and not discussing things isn't how to educate someone though.

It's not my job to parent parents. It's also not anyone else's job.

So then it's also not right to hold those kids responsible for the failure of their parents... but we do.

If you tried to talk to these kids at let's say. the park about oral sex. Guess where you would end up?

There is nothing educational about it though.
Or are you someone who believes that if a school starts discussing whips, chains, submissives, safe words, and ball gags, then that too must be educational, entirely appropriate to educating 5-year-olds and parents need to just stuff it because schools know better than they do. After all, we need to make the taboo ordinary and it might prevent pregnancy to understand the rules of S&M.
