My reason for writing this is to let parents know what is being taught to their 5th and 6th graders at New Durham School and other New Hampshire schools in Health class. The following is a sampling of some questions supposedly asked by the students who put them in an anonymous open box for the teacher to then answer in front of a coed class.

What is sex all about?

What is a wet dream? I heard something about one but it sounds
different in health.

What does rape mean?

If you are drunk and have sex can you pass on the drunkenness?

Why do people have bigger boobs than others?
