NEA, Liberal Groups Release National Sex-Ed Standards
Citizen Link ^ | January 11, 2012 | Catherine Snow

Kindergarten through 2nd grade.

That’s the grade at which the National Education Association (NEA), the Future of Sex Education Initiative and a coalition of sex-ed groups want children to start learning the names of body parts and alternative family structures.

The recommendations are outlined in the National Sexuality Education Standards released on Monday to school districts nationwide. Although they are non-binding, having the weight of the NEA behind the recommendations could give them the gravitas needed to quickly — and quietly — be implemented around the country.

CitizenLink Education Analyst Candi Cushman says it’s important for parents to understand that this is a public relations effort for activist groups and private associations. “This is not a government mandate,” Cushman said. “Schools are under no obligation to carry out these so-called standards.

“The unfortunate reality is that these guidelines could still be used by some schools and liberal education officials as leverage to undermine parental rights and expose children to controversial sexual teaching against their parents’ will,” Cushman said. “We’ve seen this happening in other states. Yet oftentimes, these efforts were blocked when parents spoke out.”

The “soft-sell approach” by the coalition is purposeful, said Chad Hills, CitizenLink’s sexual health policy analyst. “If parents knew who was on the advisory committee that crafted these recommendations, they’d take immediate action (see TrueTolerance.org).

“Explicit, anything-goes sex-education groups would have our children and youth believe there are no values, principles or moral foundations associated with sexuality,” Hills said. “We disagree. Sexuality is an inherent part of our humanness in God’s design.”

According to the Future of Sex Education website, Advocates for Youth — formerly known as the Center for Population Options — Answer and the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States(SIECUS) envision a “future without federal abstinence-only-until-marriage funding … (as they seek) how best to advance comprehensive sexuality education in schools.”

Cushman says one way parents can be proactive in protecting their children’s innocence is to make school officials aware of the tools on Focus on the Family’s website, TrueTolerance.org, which houses carefully researched legal memoranda, as well as helpful data regarding how they can approach issues in a way that respects parents’ rights and students’ religious freedoms.

“No national, special-interest group should control how local schools address these issues,” she said. “This should remain the domain of local communities — parents and school officials are the most qualified to develop good policies based on their communities’ needs.”

Anyone who is surprised by this has not been paying attention.

I can think of a body part that the NEA can insert their recommendations into.

All parents and educators should read Dr. Melvin Anchell’s book, “What’s wrong with Sex Education?”

Sex Education was designed in the 1970’s by Cultural Marxists to “destroy fixed beliefs” of children (particularly Judeo-Christian Ethics) and confuse them and destroy a normal sexual identity formation during the “latency period” when respect for their bodies and privacy is essential.

This topic—focusing attention on body parts in a classroom setting with both girls and boys-—will be humiliating and degrading because they are immature children with no concept of the meaning of the sex act.

This exposure will put undo focus on body parts to increase their interest in sex and will lead to earlier experimentation and lead to ridiculing the opposite sex and an increased interest in comparing sexual organs. This is to sexualize children==the same as what child abusers do—so they are more susceptible to Sandusky’s in the world.—It normalizes sex among children-—

Just talking of sex in the classroom tends to give implicit permission to delve into sex. That is what they teach-—it is normal—even abnormal things are taught as “normal” to create an illogical atheist worldview. To make the Bible, “Hate Speech”.

Sex will not be considered special in the classroom setting. It is reduced to an animal act. This also takes away the humanity and destroys the intimacy and life force in the sex act. It conditions into orgy setting and exposing one’s body in public. There is no privacy and specialness in individuals. Group—collectivism—to destroy the future natural family that Marx so loathed.

What sex ed does—is remove morality from the act-—reduce it to an animal act and remove mystery and awe—an essential element in romance and respect for the opposite sex.

Since the introduction of Sex Ed in schools-—promiscuity, STD’s, Abortions, unwed prenancies, dysfunctional sexual practices have skyrocketed-—by 700%.

The psychology behind it destroys respect for parents and family and destroys respect between boys and girls and reduces people to base animal behaviors. All from the Cultural Marxists books-—the easiest way to destroy a country is to corrupt the little children. Make them believe there is no God and no meaning in sex—and life.

Where is the outcry from the so-called “good” teachers that Freepers claim to know? Where are the boycotts, placards, marches on the state capitols,the law suits against the NEA and withdraw of funding to this evil organization? Where is the storming of the school board meetings, and organizing of the parents by the so-called “good” teachers?

Answer: CRICKETS!

Personally, I have made a decision. I have personally concluded, after listening to the deafening sound of crickets, that there are no “good” government teachers. I will no longer have a government school teacher or worker as a friend and will do all that I can to remove them from my social life.

What I see are: Evil teachers, stupid teachers, Useful Idiot teachers, and timidly weak teachers who love their paychecks and pensions more than their so-called “conservative and Christian” values. ( Looking at the evidence before me, that is what I personally conclude.)

God will not save a nation that does two things:

1) Allows innocent babies to be murdered in the womb, some having their skulls crushed seconds from their first breath.

2) Willing sends its children into godless and socialist schools. The children must think and reason godlessly just to cooperate in the classroom. How could it be otherwise? Yet, Christians and conservatives across the nation willingly make this choice for their children, willingly support forcing other citizens to pay for it, and will often be found on any Friday night wildly cheering on the godless government gladiator sports teams.

Well...At least the children who are aborted fly straight to the arms of a loving Jesus. Those children who learn to think and reason godlessly by attending government schools risk loss of their eternal souls, and living in a nation that may quickly descend into hellish tyranny.

Personally, I have concluded that our nation will likely not survive one more generation of children being taught to think and reason godlessly in their socialist-entitlement schools. Yes, I believe it is **that** serious!

So?...If anyone has a link to government owned and run K-12 school that is not godless in its worldview, and not a socialist-entitlement, please send a link. If the government school is not godless, specifically, which religious denomination is established in the school? I've been hammered here on Free Republic for being so blunt and using the words “all” and “every”. Some have have threatened to have me banned even and taken off ping lists.

If I am wrong, please send links showing otherwise. I will apologize.
