Yeah, thanks. But it only comes around once a year...unless you're taking health & a science class at the same time, then you sit through it twice a year.
Basically what we are getting at, is that information needs to be presented. Sex education is being taught in schools today, no matter what we think about it. The problem is, that only abstinence is being taught, and we are being told that condoms don't work, so they aren't being used. We believe that information needs to be presented in an unbiased fashion, which is not what is happening today.
No, I mispoke. What I meant to say was that most boys aren't going to warn their girlfriends of the consequences they could face after they have sex. I was running out of room in my comment, I had to make my comments shorter.
In your earlier statement, "Most boys aren't going to tell a girl they shouldn't have sex..." are you suggesting that SOMEONE needs to tell them they shouldn't have sex?
So it sounds like you'd agree that this is a moral issue. What business is it of public schools to impose their morality (or lack thereof) on impressionable students?
We believe that students should be given the information about sex, condoms, pregnancy, statistics and such, but no one should blantantly tell them that sex is wrong and you shouldn't do it no matter what. Which is exactly what our school does, as demonstrated in the video. That may have been a dramatization, but it was not over-dramatized. That is how it goes at our school. Well, we threw the Ann Coulter book bit in, but the rest was taken from what we've heard in the sex ed class.
Why is it the role of public schools to teach anything other than the three R's? How about placing the responsibility for sex education on the parents, where it belongs?
Because, especially where we come from no one talks about sex. There are kids at our school who didn't have an inkling about what it was until well after they got into High School. Before that all sex education was offered but you had to have parent permission. I know several teens who didn't know about sex until they had a boyfriend. They didn't know the dangers, the risk, and were taught completely by their boyfriend.
And then had sex, not knowing the consequences or anything. Most boys are not going to tell a girl that they shouldn't have sex. Not knowing about options and risks greatly increases a chance that a girl will be taken advantage of. And when parents don't tell their children that, thinking they will remain pure until marriage, the exact opposite happens.
Nice video, and I'm sorry you have to put up with such bs in your class. . .

This is why we are asking this question. The schools, ours at least, are imposing their view of Abstinence-Only on the students.
