    Old news. Not outraged

    Kids who are abused often act out said abuse on each other. It's not like kids that young have a sex drive.

    I'm no psychologist, but I'm guessing its likely. Sad really.

    'It went down in the classroom, it went down in the bathroom and it went down out on the playground.
    Even if she was older than the guy I don't think it's fair to refer to her as "it".

    If their biology teacher had set up the apparatus it'd be more a concern

    :mad: Its disgraceful - the poor children and their parents are rightly worried. I certainly wouldn't have my child associate with a child that had been sexualised at such a young age - this is so wrong on so many levels

    Sex drive? No. Doing weird **** for the novelty? Yes. Get a litter (or whatever the correct term is) of rabbits and see what age they are when they start trying to hump siblings.

    I can't believe those quotes from parents either, wondering if their sons are "predators" even though only one girl is mentioned in the article but she isn't a "predator".

    Ugh, lack of supervision and adults attributing adult motivations to instinctive and novel behaviours, it's a strange mix.

    If it's handled right then "sexualised" will be an irrelevant term. Making a huge deal out of it to the kids is stupid. Kids do weird and stupid things, adults are meant to be around to stop them.

    Im dieing to hear the sigh Joe will let out when you tell him this on Liveline 1850 715 815 get dialing!

    One has to wonder where they got the idea from...its not quite the same as saying they have a boyfriend/girlfriend at the same age.
    EDIT: What's more disturbing is they had a video of it...

    I think we all can determine whether it is or isn't for ourselves. And don't forget to take two spoonfuls of 'cop on' before posting in future.

    They weren't 5 year olds.... They were midgets!

    Really don't see why the daily fail had to state it was a "Lutheran" school, pointless really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,408 ✭✭✭✭Grayson


    At 4 I played doctors and nurses with a girl. It did involve running around with no clothes on. It's not like there was anything even vaguely sexual in it.

    What's happened in this case is that adults are putting their own desires on their kids. They can't imagine anything like that being non sexual. And the daily mail is of course feeding the frenzy. The people to blame here are the adults with their sick imaginations and if the kids lives are "Ruined" it's because the parents have blown (no pun intended) it all out of proportion.

    'It all boils down to a lack of supervision,' Owen said.
    What a weird comment. That's not what "it all boils down to" at all. It's not like children just get up to this kind of activity the minute no one is looking at them. There must be something else going on in the school besides teachers not keeping an eye on the pupils.

    Cos if they weren't religious nutjobs they'd have viewed it as completly innocent kids who were messing around as opposed to sinful abominations?

    It did say that the reason the school closed was a student/teacher ratio that was two high.

    And although I think the kids are completly innocent, its not really something they should be doing in school :)

    Like you said there were no sexual thing about playing doctors and nurses naked, it was innocence, but to "perform" sexual act on each other is just wrong

    It's certainly an interesting moral scenario to ponder. Is it wrong for two five year olds to engage in such activity? Are the children in the wrong? Not in my opinion.

    So you don't think it should be illegal for them to engage in sex?

    But it's not sexual at all. That's my point. They might not have even realised that it had any sexual connoctations or that it was something that adults do. You're superimposing what that act means for you onto what they did.

    I never said playing doctors and nurses was sexual, the act of oral sex is sexual

    Like I just said, was it sex? Was it in anyway sexual? Was it imitating sex? was it imitating adults having sex? Or was it just something they did that happens to be like an aduly sexual act?

    If you catch a kid doing something like that, you should nicely tell then that it's not something that's done, like picking your nose and eating it.
    But calling it a "sexual" act is shows more about you and your inability to disassociate sex that it does about the kids.

    So every gynacological exam, by a male or female doctor is a sexual act? As is say a prostate exam?

    The same act, can be sexual or non sexual depending on what the circumstances are. A child that age has no conception of sex, it's not a sexual act.

    Stop imposing your obsession with sex onto a childs acts.

    I get your point about the imitating of what adults do, but it is still sexual regardless, why do they need to imitate what adults do?
