House passes Parents Bill of Rights, as enraged Dems level wild charges against it. Right to know what’s being taught in schools and see reading materials, Right to be heard, Right to see school budgets and spending, to protect your child’s privacy, to be notified of any violent activity at school.

The problem on the conservative side of sex ed, however, was that their alternative was abstinence programs--which worked about as well as expected around horny and curious teenagers--or pretending that sex just didn't exist.

And I'll admit that my view of sex ed is probably influenced by the fact that it was precisely the dry, factual version that I got from my school. And my educational years were long back, before this stupid shit took over.

Teaching abstinence should be a parent's prerogative. If schools could be trusted to stick with facts and leave moral considerations to the parents then I'd have less of an issue with it being the purview of schools but the growing track record of so-called "educators" seeking to exclude parents from the process leaves me with a resounding, "hell no!"
