A bill in Florida could ban talk about periods in the younger grades in elementary schools.

According to the proposal, the subject should not be brought up until the children are around 11–12 years old.

If the bill passes, it means that conversations about human sexuality, sexually transmitted diseases and related topics will be limited to grades 6-12.
