Boy gets sex talk at sleepover

Amom was left shocked and “disappointed” to discover that her nine-year-old son had been given a sex-education talk when he was at a friend’s sleepover. The post, which was written on Mumsnet, has left many users shocked after her son was given a lesson in ‘sex’ by his friend’s 15-year-old brother, who schooled the child about sexual intercourse and condoms.

In the post, the outraged mum wrote: “I was slightly disappointed that we hadn’t got in there first with ‘the talk’, but happy he had come to me to talk about it, so we went over everything.

“At one point, he asks me if sex makes a baby every time. I said, ‘No, you can use contraception.’ He said, ‘Like condoms?’”

“We talked about the age of consent and emotional maturity and things.”

“Right at the end, I mentioned porn, and just said that he’d probably hear people mention it, but that it was a very false type of sex, and in some cases, it can be very addictive and impact upon relationships.

“Son goes all quiet and then says, actually, his friend’s big brother told them to Google porn, so they did. They watched it (about six of his classmates) and then they all thought it was a bit wrong so they turned it off.

One shocked user replied: “I would go to town on it. It’s so inappropriate.”

ABritish mother claims that breastfeeding her daughter until age nine has created a lifelong bond.

Sharon Spink – a 50-year-old mum of four from Sherburn in Elmet, North Yorkshire – said she nursed her youngest daughter Charlotte, nine, up until eight weeks ago when she no longer yearned for ‘mommy milk’.

According to the Daily Mail, Spink said that breastfeeding her girls has created a strong bond because she has good health thanks to the nutrients.

The World Health Organization recommends that all babies be exclusively breastfed for six months, then gradually introduced to appropriate family foods after six months while continuing to breastfeed for around two years.

Although she sees no problems with breastfeeding her older children, she admits that she has been criticised for doing so.

She revealed that some have labelled it as a form of child abuse.
