Does getting voted one of four girls in the class most likely to get pregnant mean that her classmates see her as the campus mattressback?

[quote][b] Just because your little daughter is an Honor Student in SIXTH GRADE does not mean that she will be free from temptation in high school (unless she's a major bow wow) and that she is above getting pregnant.

Exactly.

If I were the dad I would be mad at the teacher too.

I would also be worried why all of the classmates thought his daughter had a good shot at getting pregnant....


6th graders by and large are really immature and to be asked to comment on an adult subject like that is beyond absurdity. The girls probably twirled their hair and dreamed of motherhood and stuff and the boys probably didn't even answer the question. I am quite sure my son who's a 6th grader would have thought the question as astoundingly dumb, and driven him to hold his teachers in more derision than he already (quietly) does. And that's the sad part. It's really not the teachers, it's the stupid educational programs they're brainwashed to believe are "state of the art".

The most that's accomplished by this would be the young lady set up by peer pressure. If I were her Dad, I'd be absolutely furious.

While by and large 6th graders are immature I think they are much more advanced as far as doing things in life than even I was.  Like I said the dad should be mad, but this can also help dialogue with his daugther on other issues.

School 'stonewalls' over pregnancy poll

Parents whose children attend a Mississippi school embroiled in controversy after a science teacher had 6th-graders vote on who was most likely to become pregnant – or be dead – by age 19 say officials now are stonewalling them.

Parent Curtis Lyons wants to see the assignment given his daughter, but is being told he won't be allowed to review it.

"I have a right to see that assignment," he told WND today, "but I've been refused."

Granted, but they are still immature. And if it does help with other issues, then great, but we shouldn't have to rely on the school systems to shock us into speaking with our children.

Oh, the teacher should be fired.  Let the kids think she's a hoar in private

Does potato have an "e" on the end of it? Wouldn't that be more relevant for a sixth grade class?

She's a Honor Student, so here's the lesson: when you are doing well for yourself, you're gonna have HATERS!!!!



It is what it is, that's just what it is, so I guess, that's what it is, ...if that's it. .....What?
