Shanghai sex-ed camp for kids falls flat

Despite the warm reception it got in the apparently more sexually open city of Nanjing, Shanghai's first sex-ed camp for kids fell flat. The course, which opened yesterday for children aged eight to 13, only managed to attract six male students and absolutely no females. It seems many parents were put off by the high cost: 2,880 yuan for just three days and others commented that this style of frankness “conflicts with Chinese people's cultural traditions.” Still, parents of the children who did go said it was worth it. “It's an information explosion age and there is much misleading information on the Internet,” opined one mother. “It's better for kids to be instructed by professionals.” Source: Shanghai Daily
