And it’s all billed to you, the taxpayer. Is that what we want?

My lady is a teacher. I have just interviewed her for this post. She says that, at her school, sex ed is provided in the seventh grade science class and that the teacher does demonstrate the use of condoms in a very matter of fact way with either a cucumber or a zucchini squash (she isn't sure which). I am not talking about a public school. I'm talking about one of the most exclusive private schools in this country.

Should this kind of information only be provided to kids in private schools?

I really don't know why condom demonstrations are required in any schools at all, so I shan't lose a wink of sleep worrying that some elite private school kids get to watch this nonsense while some public school children are deprived of the spectacle, no matter how "matter of factly" it is done.

It is ridiculous to think this needs demonstrating.

NO. It should not be provided to kids at all. They'll have plenty of time to learn about condoms after they are married.

All of institutional (as opposed to familial) sex ed can be summed up in a few short sentences:

Don't have sex before you're married. If you do you will screw up your life. Leave adult problems to the adults.
