1.2 Please outline your reasons for your answer to question 1.1
(we would be grateful if you could keep your answer to around 1500 words)
Thanks for opportunity to express my concerns,my main concern about this current curriculum trying to be legislated is the fact it is sexualises children by giving them sexual rights.at no point should children be in position to be discussing what feels right sexually.if this was about protecting them from abuse parents would be for it but it seems to be doing opposite by exposing them to decisions at a much younger age.some of the wording about things feeling right or wrong totally contradicts actual criminal law where children shouldn't be exposed to this until a certain age.plus parents should always have the right to challenge education especially when it could be effecting their child mentally as not all kids react the same to every situation. Protection of children should always be priority and they should never be open to being abused and should always be able to confront it but some of this curriculum is talking about what feels right or wrong at such a young age instead of they shouldn't be experiencing it

I think all ministers need to think hard about implementing this bill especially if they have kids and grandkids it will involve their families too also we need to start questioning why these ideas sexualising or giving them sexual rights from birth is even a idea nevermind in curriculum. Children are innocent they don't need to be exposed to this at such a young age
