Keep control gentlemen, keep control." Ah, the sound of the stern classroom reprimand of yore, really takes me back. I have to remember though, I'm not a student in this group (even though I don't look a day over 15 to most people). However, I am a little jealous because this group of junior students from Streetsville and Mississauga secondary schools has arrived at Toronto's Lorraine Kisma Theatre for Young People to see Are We There Yet? for the first time.
Back when I was in school, sexual education started in grade one, with a purple and yellow rooster puppet named Rusty, who counseled kids on inappropriate touching (some psychiatrist somewhere is definitely making a living off of stories about this puppet). In the later grades, there were PBS specials featuring a camera up the birth canal and a repetitive jingle that's still stuck in my head, "My body's nobody's body but mine/You have your own body, let me have mine."
