Good intent, but as another poster mentioned laws are interpreted, and can be applied in different ways.
I agree that all prepubescent sex ed should be banned in schools, absolutely.
When it comes to raising your own children, having 'the talk' is not always a scheduled event. Kids learn about a lot of things that their parents didn't teach them, but they might ask their parents to explain it to them.
If a kid asks about sex, the accepted norm was to describe it vaguely without getting into details ("when a man and a woman love each other very much...") and always followed by the caveat that it's something adults do, and not children. Just explaining that sex is not something kids need to worry about can steer them back towards appropriate development, but could be potentially punished by this proposed law, leaving children to learn from the media and their peers, who may have degenerate parents.
