It’s for the Children

In Connecticut, the Greenwich school district is under harsh criticism after playing a cartoon video for a second-grade remote class featuring an erect penis.

The video features two owls talking about fear before displaying images like parents fighting, physical abuse of a child, and child sexual abuse.

The sexual abuse portion featured a profile of a man’s erect penis standing in front of a small kid and graphic descriptions of abuse.

Greenwich Schools Superintendent Dr. Toni Jones said in an email to outraged parents that the cartoon was most likely meant for a private therapy session for kids who have experienced trauma.

“Around the midway point in the video there is reference to situations in which children may become afraid, including being afraid of abuse, both physical and sexual,” she said. “The content at this point in the video was not appropriate for our GPS second grade classrooms.”

She also apologized for any “questions or concerns this may have raised for children.”

The video did contain a warning:

CAUTION: The film contains some graphic material regarding sexual abuse – so please watch the film before you show it in a classroom setting or a similar setting.

All children are normal scared, but what do children who are embarrassed scared or painful scared need? “Alfred Jr. & Shadow- A Short Story About Being Scared” is an educational film for children aged 6-14 years. The children learn about different ways of being scared, what they need when they are scared and suggestions for actions. Adults also get some tips on how to meet a child who is scared.

The film is produced in collaboration with the Council for Mental Health in Norway and with funds from Exrastiftelsen. The film aims to convey about fear and anxiety in a direct, concrete and honest manner, also about difficult topics such as death, bullying, alcohol abuse, violence and sexual abuse.
