Sex Education or Training in Schools
12/12/2014



I found this article online: Chicago schools teach anal sex to 5th graders and was shocked a school is allowed to teach students more about sex than ever before. I've never been a fan of sex education in school but to teach students about sexual pleasure is crossing over the boundaries. 

My husband and I were shocked almost 12 years ago when we found out that in the state of California a child can leave the school campus without parental knowledge or consent to seek medical advice/care including an abortion as long as they asked a school counselor for permission. They have to seek their own transportation, i.e. bus, taxi etc. Unfortunately, we found out the hard way. We pulled our daughter out of public school and started to homeschool. Our daughter is thankful we did this.  She is now 26 years old and a successful business owner. We parents need to be in charge of our children's education not a board or teacher.
