My 9 yr old Daughter Told Her Friend's about Sex EDIT in red

So a friend called and told me that her daughter told her that my girl told her and another 8-9 yr old about sex and how it happens. I asked her about it and after refusing to tell me for a while it comes out that she got the info from her sisters science book.
I'm upset that my 14 year old shared this with a 9 yr old and that the 9 yr old went and told her friends
Now my friends (the other 2 girls' moms) are distant and I think they're afraid of letting their daughters play with mine.
I talked till I was blue about how we don't share these things and how she should talk to me about this stuff.
WWYD?
*EDIT* Ok I'm not upset that she knows now, I'd have preferred she'd learn from me and later on. I was just upset that her sister shared that with her and that she told the other girls. Here where I live in the Middle East it's not taught till 8th grade and people wait to tell their kids details until they are a bit older than 9.
He corrects the bad info they have heard too.
I got nothin', I don't keep this info from my kids.
I can get why the other parents may be upset, but I would be more than ok with my 9 year old knowing the basics of sexuality
oh well, maybe the other parents need to get over it? sex is a part of life.
Your upset that your 14 year old had to be your 9 year olds mother. yeah that would be upsetting .
You should have told your child yourself a long time ago. and you should have taught her about modesty, privacy, and how she does not need to share this information with the other children.
Had YOU been the parent, this wouldnt have happened.
Would you be ok with an 8yr old constantly correcting you?
