More than just my opinion Twinnie?
Well, there's an entire professional literature on the subject. I suggest starting with the Guttmacher Institute. They've been producing real peer-reviewed research on the subject for decades. But it's made up of icky things like "facts" and "research". It doesn't mention your Imaginary Invisible Sky Friend and doesn't assume its conclusions and demonize anyone who disagrees. It also uses big words. So you probably wouldn't like it.
like I said: Diseases, pregnancy, and how to prevent both, INCLUDING abstaining. And NOTHING else. Thats what it should be. if you have to reform it, like I said, take them to the welfare office. Take them to see crack whores. Whip out the medical text book and show them infected stuff looks like. Take them to meet someone DYING from cervical cancer because she got HPV
for example, if you think the mission of ex ed is to make sure teens have a good sex life, you might be stupid.
if you think the mission of sex ed should be to make sure teens dont catch disease, or get pregnant, you might be onto something.
now what is the ONE way to make sure one doesnt get pregnant or catch a disease?
as Ron White put it:
You Cant Fix Stupid
no amount of sex ed will get stupid people to be smart, or irresponsible people to suddenly act right.

it is all about MISSION. Civilians have a hard time grasping the concept of "mission" for example, if you think the mission of ex ed is to make sure teens have a good sex life, you might be stupid.
if you think the mission of sex ed should be to make sure teens dont catch disease, or get pregnant, you might be onto something.
now what is the ONE way to make sure one doesnt get pregnant or catch a disease? and that just so happens to be the one thing that the social "reformers" want to leave out.....

The ones who are in favor of keeping children ignorant and filling their heads with ******** say it's because they want to guard morality.
The ones who want children to learn responsibility and to guide their lives based on what is real do it out of pragmatism.
If you read my quote, you would have noticed that my father EXPLAINED the consequences that would arise due to my actions. I both feared and respected him. I also love the old bugger. He never used "just fear" to keep me in check. That is not at all what I am advocating.I dont buy into the whole using just fear as education. IMO, an answer or reason why kids should not do this or that, is required to help and give a better understanding. If this is not done, well, let me use the martial arts as an example...
You're in class learning a kata. Teacher shows you 3 moves and you ask what they're for, what applications they have, etc. The reply is.."Well, umm....you do those moves because...........................................................................................................because thats the way the kata is done."
Doesnt sound like a good reason does it? Maybe, if the teacher said, "Well, the first move can be blocking a punch, it can also be a defense against a lapel grab, and you're now putting them into an arm lock. The 2nd are 3rd moves, are defending against 2 attackers, 1 trying to punch you and the other trying to kick you."
Option 2 sounds much better. So instead ofa parent JUST using fear or JUST saying dont have sex, a reason why, a list of risks, etc. should be added.
Just my .02.
hetero=homo
thats a MORAL judgment, not a factual one (even tho i agree, but honesty forces me to call it what it is, a moral judgment)
so Irene, they ARE trying to teach morality
and yes, the PARENTS should be talking to them, not some hack job teacher that is only still employed because the union wont let them get fired.....
FACTS
disease, pregnancy, how to prevent both
everything else is judgment calls, and outside the realm of what the schools should be teaching.
Not to mention, you cant trust a teacher to JUST teach anymore, every other week there is some teacher on the news either screwing a student, or preaching politics
you cant tell me you trust them to NOT inject thier own judgments into it.
