Belgium authorities are getting worried by a series of school arsons believed to be connected to newly mandatory school sessions in some parts of the country.
I can think of many things that could be argued as fitting in those categories that are happening in some countries that are unsafe. for example having books in schools that are already categorized as not suitable for children. you can find may youtube videos of parents trying to quote some of this books to the school boards and the school board usually shuts them up for indicency. so i don’t think that content that the school board is not comfortable with and think it’s indicent as safe. but you can frame it under ‘Promoting the capacity of everyone to communicate on sexuality, emotions, relations and to acquire necessary vocabulary to be able to communicate it properly’.
can you be more specific? i shared information. its not safe to expose kids to pornographic novels, doesn’t matter if it’s lgbtq or not.
edit; to ellaborate and be as specific as possible, it’s not ok to have 10 year olds reading oral sex instructions and telling them that it’s not only ok but that it’s good to do it? so it seems unsafe to me to encourage a 10 year old to give blow jobs.
Your edit is what I was looking for, specifics about what is and isn’t safe according to you. And for that specific one, I think that’s reasonable.
Though I don’t see even improved sex ed as ever teaching the specifics about how to do various sexual acts. It would be more of a dos and don’ts list. Like don’t reuse toys without cleaning them, be aware that sexual fluids have enough volume to sustain bacterial and fungal life, so you should always clean your toys after use. Or if you’re rubbing your skin raw, use some lubrication. Or that it’s normal for there to be a bit of pain the first time, but if it keeps up like that, you might have a medical issue that a doctor can help with. Or how to tell the difference between normal discharge and abnormal discharge that should be checked by a doctor. Or symptoms of early pregnancy and how tests work.
I really hope you are right. they should also do it when it’s really relevant to their experience/hormonal development, and I know some people develop earlier than others so it should be on the younger end of the time window.
They have great objectives. Hopefully they are pursuing them in a safe/sane manner.
What would you think of as an unsafe manner?

“Previously categorised as unsuitable to children” and “offends some school board members” aren’t useful metrics.
please share what would qualify as useful metrics .
Something that contains information rather than just referring vaguely to what other people thought about it.
Your last comment was a long paragraph with 0 actual information about what you consider unsafe.
