What every happened to teaching:

1.) Reading/writing
2.) Math
3.) History
4.) Science

People graduate from these schools and can not read/write or even fill out a simple EMPLOYMENT APPLICATION!

But they know how to put on a condom, etc..

This is pitiful.

Where are the "Christians"? They are asleep and a DISGRACE

Folks, you do have rights and can have your children excused from any inappropriate material. At least in my son's middle school, they are respectful of parents' wishes. Because of more rigorous academic requirements, the previous touchy-feelie semester of "life education" was mercifully replaced with a few days of basic reproduction and gestation in biology class which every 12-year-old should already know.

However, less than 10% of the parents showed up at a preview of this info and one incredible dolt asked "how" they were going to demonstrate the condoms. The teachers just about passed out and the principal said this was an urban legend - never happened in any school she knew about. Parents said they were embarrassed to talk to their kids and wanted the school to do it or at least give them books to give to their kids. Mind you, the school is right next to both the library and Barnes and Noble and all of these are affluent folk with internet access and presumably had sex themselves at least once if they managed to produce a seventh grader. I think this embarrassment/ignorance is the main reason these programs are tolerated despite their proven tendency to increase teen sex. One mom actually asked if kids would be told to abstain. Principal said, "You're the parent. You're going to tell them." Good for her.
