Why are schools teaching sex education but not about child development from conception?

What is wrong with children learning about what science has revealed to be truth? Why would you want to keep the time line of child development away from children? What is the purpose? Is the act of one the cause of another?
vkira02, does that mean they should stop teaching sex education?
Some people assume that if you educate a child about something they will become that way or become corrupt. There was a big thing about teaching drugs in school. Parents assumed if kids learned about the effects of drugs they will go out and do them. It could be the same thing. If they are taught about child development they could go out and have babies. Not very logical, but ive met some people who think that way.
Do you apologize for your child’s bad behavior in public?
i was at dinner last night with a friend and my daughter (14 months) started to act up. It wasn’t embarrassing for me but I felt bad for my friend. She said she didn’t mind but I still apologized about it.
Do u apologize (to any one) for ur child’s bad behavior in public?
Yes, if you have a small child it’s understandable for them to misbehave but it is polite to apologize for having put those around you in that situation. People will be understanding and appreciative. However, when it comes to places like movie theaters I expect parents to leave babies at home and if you bring an older child but they do start crying, to take them out of the theater immediately. Anything less is very rude.
When they get older you should teach them to apologize or at least tell them they are being rude. Kids whose parents let them get away with bad behavior don’t see it as wrong and become bratty.
Bring Up the Introvert Child
Introversion is a common behavioral trait characterized on the far end of the spectrum by:
• Constant preoccupation with one’s own thoughts and feelings.
• An aversion towards meeting new people, going to unfamiliar places, or doing new things.
Introverted kids are perceived as hesitant or shy. If your baby is an introvert, this does not mean that your child is unsociable or abnormal. Almost all introverts, like extroverts, grow up to be successful adults—even geniuses.
Like with many traits, your child probably lies in the middle of the introvert/extrovert spectrum. However, if you feel your child is extremely introverted, here are some things to know.
Symptoms
Highly introverted babies may exhibit one or more of the following behaviors:
• Avoidance – Introverts may tend to move away from people, lights, noise, etc. Extroverts, on the other hand, enjoy being with people. Introverts are often perceived to be shy or afraid, when they are actually only hesitant of doing new things or meeting new people.
• Territoriality – Introverts generally do not like people intruding into what they consider their space, which includes their bodies, toys, or their beds.
• Lack of interaction – Many babies like to spend most of their time alone, and spend limited time in playing or interacting with other children and strangers.
• Intense staring – Some introvert babies tend to stare intensely at unfamiliar personalities.
Treatment
Introversion is not a disorder, and hence there is no “treatment” for it. However, there are certain things you can do to make introvert children more comfortable with their surroundings.
• Don’t mend when nothing’s broken: Trying to alter your child’s behavior needlessly may affect the normal developmental process. Do not force any activities on your baby.
• Avoid sensory overload: Your baby enjoys peace and tranquility and likes doing one thing at a time. Bright lights, commotion, noise, etc. may be exhaustive for an introvert, and should be avoided.
• Respect their space: Introverts like to meet new people and face situations on their own terms. Encourage people handling your baby, such as your babysitter or your friends, to respect your child’s space.

How can you tell if your child is a baby genius?
What are some signs? and how early can you tell? can a toddler be gifted?
All babies are geniuses, unless they are developmentally delayed. It just depends on what parents do with their babies, and how they are raised.
