Currently the Crane Independent School District "does not offer a curriculum in human sexuality, according to its student handbook, but does offer a three-day course in sex-ed each fall semester. Texas law mandates that such courses emphasize abstinence, and indeed a district committee recommended Scott & Whites Worth the Wait Abstinence Plus curriculum three years ago.
If kids are not having any sexual activity, they cant get this disease
Thats not a bad program, said Jim Rumage, the districts superintendent. But residents say theyre not too thrilled with the results:

Yup.
Besides since when is knowing the mechanics of sex, prevented anyone from getting an std? Its apples and oranges to say they got an std because they didnt have sex ed. They got an std because they had sex.
It also isnt the name of a gal in a greek epic, either.
that was harsh

Sorry, I don’t like failed parents assuming others can’t do it right. There have been no shortage of them here. But in reality, he can keep his Marxist sex ed; my kids only saw the inside of public schools when they took their SATs.

So 24 years old is still considered an adolescent? I wonder what our soldiers and airmen think about that....especially the 17, 18 and 19 year old MEN who fought the Second World War.
Good solid bet.
IMO sex education is not the responsibility of the school district. I agree that parents need to get their head out of the sand but birth control discussions and the spread of STD’s needs to begin at home. This issue is no different than checking the contents of your teen’s or tweener’s cell phone and computer, discussions about the dangers of social media, etc. Schools interject themselves in the raising of the children because parents allow them to. Parenting is never easy and each generation presents its own special issues. The ones I deal with with my grandson are some different than the ones I dealt with my son - except for the hormonal one. It’s never changed even from the time I was a teen!
If I remember correctly, there was a character by the name of Gonorrhea Gladly in the book Unintended Consequences.

She went by G.G. in adulthood.
Wait til it's HIV. I hear with that Syphilis is making a grand comeback in the gay community. Good stuff.
Popping Plan B like Skittles has its consequences.
Crazy. Raise your kids right and you will have either no problem, or very very rarely a problem. Serious parents do not have sleep-around kids.
Homosexuals push sex ed all day long and yet they are the most highly diseased group.
