My sister told us that she wasn't allowed to lift a kettle or an iron for six weeks!

well... indulge the poor woman.

    ^top

it's true ... you're told not to lift a kettle !

    ^top

Nor the iron.

But no mention of not painting the ceiling.

I wonder if that is the excuse for some of the people in the office.

very true ... stretching might be good

Let's be fair, though. There is no such thing as sex 'education' in England anyway. Most kids get shown a video of a stripper and are left to themselves and channel five to work the rest out.

My 'education' was a video shown to the class about 'respect', and although respect in a worthy aspiration, it hardly teaches you the mechanics and responsibilities of sex.

The whole system needs an overhaul.

You must be old if you think it's still like that!

I'm only in my early twenties, so not that long ago.

I can't imagine it's changed that much or that children are getting the right education.

I'm happy with what my children have learned.

What would you consider to be 'right'?
