The thing is, do you think that this is appropriate?

From the article.

Quote:The material for her first-grade class never used the term “masturbation,” Ms. Fonte said recently. The lesson was about private parts being private and included a cartoon in which two characters use anatomically correct names for their genitals and say that sometimes it feels good to touch them. “It’s OK to touch yourself and see how different body parts feel, but it’s best to only do it in private,” the narrator tells viewers.

The W.H.O. guidelines state that between the ages of 5 and 8, children should learn to “identify the critical parts of the internal and external genitals and describe their basic function” and “recognize that being curious about one’s body, including the genitals, is completely normal.”

Exactly how "basic" of "function" needs to be shown or taught to children between the ages of 5 and 8 regarding those parts of the body?  What exactly defines the "critical parts" of the internal and external genitals of a child between the ages of 5 and 8?

The other part of the problem is that now many current public schools indoctrination centers are teaching children this young that it's "OK to be gay" or to "change what you have".

In my opinion it is disgusting to be exposing children that young to these ideas and pretty much amounts to child abuse.
