Plot:When 12-year old Adeline's parents aren't forthcoming with information about the facts of life, she jumps to her own misguided conclusions and causes a scandal. (IMDb)
Sounds more than interesting! ghost comes always up with all the good shorts - maybe he knows where to search ...
(I confess that I think the largest file at 1.3Gb for a 15 minute film is excessive.)
This story takes place in 1976, and I kind of remember what kids were like then. If you don't object to major spoilers or have seen it already, here is my commentary on how WRONG-HEADED this dingbat girl really is:
Spoiler:
(Grandma tells the young girl Adeline to keep her "knees together".)
I don't think Grandma entirely understands. Because I'm pretty sure keeping your knees together won't keep a baby from being born. The key is to not get pregnant in the first place. But, how?

Of course! Married people are always kissing! Sperm from the dad gets into the mom through saliva! Forget about keeping my knees together! I'm keeping my lips together so I don't get pregnant in the first place!

Grandma was absolutely right, of course. Little Adeline must be especially dense, because my memory is that girls in the 1970s all knew that shutting their legs and using their mouths was the best way to AVOID pregnancy! (But great for getting herpes.)
And I have never understood why any young person would actually want their school teachers to instruct them on sex. Eww, creepy. And learning about sex from Mom & Dad? Incestuous education?!?! Learn about it from friends your own age, it is more fun that way! And damn the consequences!
I enjoyed the film even though I thought the girl rather unbelievably absurd.
