China : Kindergarten Class Uses Realistic Dolls To Teach Sexual Education

Yaolan Kindergarten, a school in Zhengzhou, the capital city of Henan province in central China. Young children learning about the human body by playing with dolls that feature very lifelike parts, including genitalia with pubic hair.

The dolls have, naturally, drawn criticism from some parents. "I am worried that it's not good for the kids to know sexual knowledge so early," one parent said. But China, which has one of the highest abortion rates in the world, is, like many countries, grappling with how to effectively teach sex education in schools. Do you think these dolls are effective for teaching sexual education to children? Are the children too young?
