My Sex Education Experience

Myself

[AVNevis]

If you can believe it or not, Planned Parenthood teaches the sex education classes at my middle school. (Yes, the school board actually allows an activist organization to teach sex ed.) It was amazing some of the things they said. They actually let us know that sex before 18 was illegal. However, then they told us not to worry about breaking it because the police will never catch you. As the week went on it actually seemed like they were promoting juvinile sex. The instructor gleefully talked about how to put a condom on. She explained how flavored condoms could make oral sex a more enjoyable experience. I had to practically force her to say that lying to your parents about sex was a bad thing(I did this by asking her if lying to your parents about sex was a bad thing during annonymous question time.) Even then she didn't seem too sincere. If you have a middle or high school student in the Sacramento Unified School District or many other school districts, this is what your kids are learning. Please, for their sake, give them a good talk about not having sex until marrage before this is taught at your child's school.

P.S. I am planning on starting a Conservative Club at my High School sometime this upcoming year after I get to know the school(I'm an incoming freshman.) Getting PP out will certainly be a priority

Sorry. Please forgive an angry old man.

A troll against pp,that's a troll I'll live with.

I'm sure I'll have the same thing this year in high school, so I'll think of how I can sneak a tape-recorder in. Might see if any talk radio hosts would help me get the proper equiptment to do it without getting noticed(example, give me one of those things news anchors wear and I'll pin it on the inside of my jacket.)

Very good post and article. I too have an incoming freshman this June (my youngest). He has been homeschooled totally up to now so I do have some worries about public high schools. The H.S. he will be going to is one of the better in this liberal hell they call Oregon.

His Mom and I feel he has a VERY solid conservative and religious base and will do very well.

Welcome to FreeRepublic! My congratulations and best wishes in your upcoming years of education and conservatism.

A Radio Shack pocket tape recorder in your backpack would do just fine. Make sure to use fresh tape and write the date and time of the class. Also, write down any specific information about the instructor, any other organizations they belng to (ie. NOW, GLAD, GLARP etc.). Make sure to ask the questions during class so they can be recorded and do not under any circumstances voice your opinions until you have documented what has been said.

Thanks for the positive comments!

Thanks for the report. I'm curious to know (if you don't mind discussing it), how much did this "instructor" instruct on homosexuals and homosexual sex?

Btw, these classes are starting at an earlier grade than eighth. A friend of mine has a 10 year old daughter in the public schools who has already been subjected to a sex education class. Only they called it "life skills" to hide it from the parents.

Those ar high functioning pieces of audio equipment.

Radio shack used to have some stuff that is priced in your range and would work. Sound acutated tape recorders and the like that fit in your pocket and are made to pick up "faraway" sound sources with less echo.

There is also a DAT (digital audio tape) stereo microphone (mic) that looks like eyeglasses or fits into a hat. These can be gotten for less money today because DAT is getting old. People used to use them for recording concerts and such. They work with battery powered DAT decks.

Talk to your parents about it--it may be illegal!

[AVNevis]

That was probably the only good thing about the week. I don't recall even hearing the word homosexual mentioned.

My first sex-ed class was at age 11 in 6th grade, but it taught strictly about the sex organs, nothing about condoms or abstinence. And PP didn't teach it.

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

Thanks for the report. Stay alert and be strong. Remember the motto of the left: speak up even if your voice trembles. We should heed that motto, too.

Just out of curiosity, has she discussed abstinence at all?

If you wanted to provoke her, you could suggest that it is a "conflict of interest" to have an organization teaching "how to do it" that also provides "the" service of getting teens "out of trouble" when the instructions successfully produced the result they are designed to produce (pregnancy). It would be similar to the owner of "Fred's Used Cars" teaching the driver-ed class.

Good luck and team up with others like yourself!!

"Uh, this is NOT an 8th grade student,"

You are right.
An eighth grader would not be spelling "juvinile" and "strangeley" incorrectly.
Most likely an idiot adult.

[AVNevis]

Yeah, if I did this it would be only after I had gotten a lawyer. I'm not sure about the legallity. TV station do hidden-camera investigations all the time, but maybe it's different if it's in a school.

[AVNevis]

No abstenance

[AVNevis]

Pardon my spelling, but I as a said in the earlier post I am much more political than other people my age. Sorry I have bad spelling. More info see first post responding to Don.

[latte lib]

Wow, alot of you conservative types will eat up any right wing propaganda that comes your way, no matter how poorly disguised it is.

"Flavored condoms"!! I about fell out of my chair when I read that.

"I am much more political than other people my age"

Don't know about, that but I do know that you are the oldest "Eighth Grader" on earth.
Do your grandchildren know that you are on the net?

[Osage Orange]

Getting PP out will certainly be a priority

And when you get older, it will be the ONLY priority.

[Darksheare]

Sounds alot like the schoolboard near me that got slammed for wanting to implement a curriculum that would've taught sex-ed to 3rd & 4th graders.
To the point that they were teaching them some rather 'out of the norm' things.
5th graders here are taught the mechanics and such of it already.

[searchandrecovery]

Getting PP out will certainly be a priority.

Er, might wanna edit that line.

[AVNevis]

If you don't believe teens can be political than go to Google and look up 'Tim Bueler'.
