This Sex Education Book For Kids Is Tearing Parents Apart


"OMG I had to laugh, but seriously this is inappropriate to be in a kids' section."

There comes a time in every child's life when they have to learn about the birds and bees, and Fiona Katauskas' The Amazing True Story of How Babies Are Made is here to help assist with that.

It's been making the rounds on Facebook and has been causing a lot of conversations on whether it's appropriate or not.

It's described as funny, frank, and embarrassment-free — but some parents are torn on whether it's appropriate or not.

While others thought, "OMG I had to laugh, but seriously this is inappropriate to be in a kids' section."



The author knows that answering the question, "Where do babies come from?" can be terrifying for parents so she "figured that a hefty dose of humour would help alleviate the embarrassment."



The Amazing True Story of How Babies Are Made is currently only available in Australia, but you can buy it from Kmart for $12.00.

  2. I could not find what age groups would receive this book for sex education. However, if the child is too young (<12-years) this Carnal knowledge could lead to greater sexual promiscuity among adolescents, IMHO.

    1. In those Northern European countries where sex education starts early in primary school, teenagers are less likely to have sex in their early teens, and the rate of teenage pregnancy is much lower than in the puritanical US.
      Probably because they think sex is just boring schoolwork, like geography and algebra.
