Being a home educator and mother of two, I have often been asked the question: "Why do you homeschool?"

But I've come to the conclusion that the question most begging to be asked is: "Why do you public school?"

The simplicity of this really puts things in perspective.

It hits like a brick between the eyes when you understand CRC's questioning of the school board's decision to include oral and anal sex in the video and then their request for parents to make an informed decision about whether their child should view the video or not.

That any school board would even consider this appropriate is disgusting!

A 10th-grade class should not even be covering topics along this line.

This should be the parents responsibility.

My kids go to a private Christian school. Recently I noticed a book in my 15 year old daughter's bedroom, called "The State of the Arts: From Bezalel to Mapplethorpe". Knowing who Mapplethorpe is, I picked the book up to see what my daughter was studying about this freak. Well, she read about Mapplethorpe's photo of a man urinating into the mouth of another man. And Annie Sprinkle's performance art of masturbating on stage then inviting the patrons to come up and view her genitalia with a flashlight. I blew a gasket at the school but they defend their position on having the book in a Christian school, to teach the children what is not Christian art. I'm of the opinion that any moron would know that what I described is not Christian art, so my kids are not going back to this "Christian" school next year.

"Today's PG ratings resemble what R used to be.

What crapola. Try watching Raiders of the Lost Ark again. Or Temple of Doom, where a guy's heart gets pulled out while he is still alive. (and this was 1981/84)

"a young woman shows students how to put a condom on a cucumber"

Won't the boys feel inadequate after seeing this and need psychological counseling ? ;^)

Apparently where you child goes is really NOT a Christian school. Many like to label themselves "Christian" including schools.

I believe that if the left had their way, children would be taken from their parents at a young age so as to not interfere with their leftist indoctrination.

More like public prisons, actually. Perish the thought that one day all those bright yellow school buses take the kids to mandatory Islamic schools. If that ever happens, it may be high time to "eliminate" those school buses during the night.

We found that out the hard way. We took it at face value when they said they were a Christian organization. Never again will I make that mistake.

I saw Annie Sprinkle once and they should have used a searchlight. A flashlight just didnt do her justice.

As for putting Condoms on Cucumbers, I think maybe they should use carrots, Cucumbers are much too large.

What is wrong with the method we used in the 50's Trial and error.? We got things right with practice.

In all seriousness the only thing they should teach in school about sex is abstinence till marriage.

All they should be teaching is biology.

Kids need to know about reproduction. They need to know how a baby is conceived, about ovulation, gestation, etc. They should know the differences between different animals, and humans are still an animal.

Lets hope the parents win out on this. It's too bad so many parents check out of their kids lives as soon as they darken the door of the classroom. That in large part is the reason some schools stink and others don't.

Was it Lenin who said "Give me a child until he is eleven, you will get him back then, but he will still be mine."? This is why the Public School Systems have fought parents on who is really capable of training your child. Parents today are too busy trying to keep up with the payments on their homes and new cars to be bothered with the responsibility of training their own children.

Rob Reiner is involved in a cigarette tax funded program to convince parents that they ought to put their children in day-care as soon as possible after birth. There are adds on the television all the time heralding the benefits to society if children are placed in day care centers at an early age. It is stated that the earlier they enter, they more likely they are to be well adjusted, excel in early school, more likely to go on to college and ultimately more sucessful in life.

Relatinships or bonding with parents, is obviously non-essential.

Ah yes, Steny from Maryland, where taxpayers are about to fund a new, experimental species of sex education. Students will be instructed on the correct placement of condoms on cucumbers.

A majority of parents support using the seedless variety of cucumber, a minority prefer bananas, gourds were ruled out as too seasonal, although longer lasting.

Most Maryland residents support a higher level of taxation so that all students from ages 3 to 18 can participate. Teachers anticipate that a fully funded program will enable them to achieve optimal dexterity in this vital intellectual pursuit.

3/13/05 Glad to see this post - see my previous comments (sarcasm) sp
