Barack Obama is in favor of teaching sex education to Kindergartners? ABC News' Teddy Davis and Lindsey Ellerson Report: Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., told Planned Parenthood Tuesday that sex education for kindergarteners, as long as it is "age-appropriate," is "the right thing to do." "I remember Alan Keyes . . . I remember him using this in his campaign against me," Obama said in reference to the conservative firebrand who ran against him for the U.S. Senate in 2004. Sex education for kindergarteners had become an issue in his race against Keyes because of Obama’s work on the issue as chairman of the health committee in the Illinois state Senate. "'Barack Obama supports teaching sex education to kindergarteners,'" said Obama mimicking Keyes' distinctive style of speech. "Which -- I didn’t know what to tell him (laughter)." "But it’s the right thing to do," Obama continued, "to provide age-appropriate sex education, science-based sex education in schools." what are your thoughts

1. last part says it all: "But it’s the right thing to do," Obama continued, "to provide age-appropriate sex education, science-based sex education in schools." He never says himself he is for sex education at such a young age, and I'm sure that there are plenty of people with more power, influence and expertise that know what an appropiate age is for sex education and will see that children receive the education they require about this topic.
2. Hey the earilier the better, my parents have been telling me since I was five. I never had sex before, and i'm going to wait till marriage.
