      Believe it or not, but some of the religious edge cases either don’t have internet access, or don’t let their kids use it. One of my kid’s friends is insanely restricted in that regard, but that’s a public school, so I don’t doubt there’s some roughly factual information that gets to them anyway.

      A private school though? I can see a person being a full adult and not even suspecting they were lied to until they run across something.

      Mummy Laid an Egg - Babette Cole

      published 1994. literally all the information a kid needs.

      I read it in Year R (the UK equivalent to Kindergarten)

        Unfortunately, no one at her school handed out the official “Books PrettyFlyForAFatGuy Read as a Child” list so she could catch up.

          I didn’t say they did. I’m pointing out the assertion “Information was not as easily accessible in the 90s” is false.

          It was, and it was in an easy to read and fun format for children.

          The 90s wasn’t a dark age.

          Someone made an active choice not to educate this child properly. don’t blame the 90s

            Yeah, it’s not that the information wasn’t there, it’s that religion withholds it.

      Come on now, that info was widely available well before the 90’s.

      This is some troll level bullshit.

        As a kid? In the 90s? No. It wasn’t.

        America Online didn’t present easy access to porn unless you knew what you were doing. And even then, it’s like you could reasonably see video on a webpage at 14.4kbps speeds. (0.0137 Mb/s or a little under 10 minutes per megabyte.)
