Sex Ed
I learned the basic mechanics (penis in vagina) from a third-grade friend when I was in second-grade, and of course went right home and shared them with my first-grade brother. I'm the only Democrat in my family, so that (sort of) answers your question about Republicans, RT. I bathed regularly with my brother until I was 7 or 8, and my parents always used correct anatomical terms.
I'm not sure exactly how much Magnus knows, and I'm pretty sure he'd clam up if I asked him. We read a really cute book at the library a couple of years ago, in which the parents tell the kids some euphemistic explanation for where babies come from, and the kids correct them in some detail. We asked him if he was interested in seeing his little brother be born (he was almost 5), and he wasn't. Haven't offered yet this time around (I'm betting he says no again), when he'll be 7.
