Taiwan Teaches MOE To Kids


Future Moe?

TAIPEI, Taiwan -- Members of various parent and cultural associations denounced yesterday the "explicit content" of a new sex education program set up for elementary school students by the Ministry of Education (MOE). They further asked the MOE to withhold from the literature two illustrations that show how parents make love and have children, before the new academic year begins in September 2008.

"The risk is that children could imitate what they see in the illustrations," said Rosa Marie Shiao, head of the department of Abstinence Education Research and Development at Fujen Catholic University. She insisted that the MOE should consult with parents before allowing the new material to be used in elementary classrooms.


Oh, it's not the MOE I was thinking of. But anyway, same old argument. If they see it they'll want to do it. I guess nobody ever thinks maybe you should about where they will be seeing it...
