Yeah, you would have.

I only have one niece and she's 26 years old. It's a little different than keeping secrets with an eight year old.

I do remember visiting my friend out east and hanging out with her kid who was about five or six at the time until my friend got off work. We went out for lunch and I knew my friend never let the kid drink pop. I told him he could have whatever he wanted but not to tell his mother. Then I thought better of it and told him he should never keep secrets from his mom. He could still have whatever he wanted and I'd take the blame. He ordered an RC but the poor kid felt so guilty I don't think he enjoyed it.

That has absolutely nothing to do with "normalized" social interactions though. If we are going to scream about what is and is not normal, then shouldn't we start with the premise that it might not be all that "normal" for children to attend school exclusively with children of their own "sex"? Just Asking A Question.

Are you a groomer? Because you definitely sound like one.

This is why a teacher should ask parents at the Kindergarten orientation what their kids preferred pronouns are.

product of mixed school, public education, right there fellas

The studies include countries that have historically provided more gender differentiated, public schooling. However, I would not concede the point that catholic schooling equates to wealthy, especially in the time period when people like Joe or Seacrest were in school. Also, there are approximately 366 single sex, public schools in the US.

other than that, solid post

I'm against murder because I'm a closet murderer.

I don't think the age matters. We all shake our heads at things small kids say and do. We don't tell everything because we aren't rats who want to get kids in trouble. I also think parents would hate a teacher or relative who told everything their children did or said.

That's what friends, uncles, aunts, and grandparents do. We break the parents rules. It's done out of love. You were the cool "uncle".

Actually its you that does. You have a "perverted" fascination with children and sex for some odd reason.

I have worked in schools for over 2 decades and have never had a discussion with any child about their sex life. And the entirety of my great career has been spent at the high school level. I have taught MANY students that were in fact pregnant and still never discussed what they did with their bodies. I don't know MANY other educators that have either. Why? Because it's creepy as shit.

For some strange reason you have no problem with being fixated on young children and sex, which is creepy. You can't use the old lie about "being concerned about my own child" that people with your inclinations often use because you don't have any children. Which begs the question as to why you are so fixated on "grooming"? seeing as it really won't ever "touch" you as a parent?

Of course it does. My 26 year old niece is a grown woman on track for the C-suite at a major insurance company. Keeping her confidences is in no way similar to keeping secrets with a seven year old.

Comment a little too deep for ya aye? It's a little tough for ya whenever you have to move past Twitter soundbites isn't it?

Frank, catalogue this one for your next argument with LTG. He thinks you are deep.

I wouldn't start with the premise when the weight of information doesn't support you, unless by normal you simply mean that there are more blended sex schools in the US than single sex.

How were you not aware that is what he meant? Normal doesn't necessarily mean better.

because in other discussions he has rejected normal as meaning "that which occurs most frequently". I have taken LTG idea of normal to mean something like "that which occurs frequently enough for it to not to be shocking", which I think is an interesting observation and has swayed me a bit

It's part of parenting that you DON'T want to know every thing. You have to make room for error, and that's one of the things you do to create some form of independence. My job is to be a guide and always have their back, it's not to micromanage. But I gotta tell you, if my 14 yr old boy comes home in a dress, I did something drastically wrong. I don't see the point of lying to yourself, and I would throw away all that shit I said above. Because my child just made a decision to make his life 100X harder. The countless sleepless nights I'd have, thinking about suicides and mental illness, I'm just not that strong. That's real life, it isn't some abstract or some fucking social experiment.

There was really nothing to tell. And if my 26 year old niece had a heroin habit I would probably tell her parents.

It's painfully obvious what was meant by "normal". How can it be considered "normal" for anyone to attend a school where the opposite sex is excluded? Just Asking A Question

Although I attended a same sex school for four years, I'm not a proponent of such schools. I wouldn't send a kid to one.

But what's painfully obvious is that you're trying to imply some deviant sexuality in such schools and attempting to impugn the Catholic Church.

Once again you reference sex, children and education where no such thing was mentioned. Shocking that this would be the case given your "previous" history.

My point has nothing to do with sex. But yours surely does.
