My guess is they would have been rewarded if there hadn't been public outrage.

Unbelievable.

[Clara Lou]

Just unbelievable.

"Teenage abstinence was dismissed as an unwise choice and indicative of religious hang-ups."

It's because Sex Positive teaching advocates consider sexual pleasure a birthright and want to end all moral judgements over sexual pairings. They want everyone to "get it on" at every age.

They consider abstinence an unhealthy supression of sexual desires.

They've come for your children. But some on FR are quite ok with teen sex and a double standard in statutory rape laws. Age of consent laws are being slowly whittled away. Just another culture war battle being waged.

Education/Homeschool Ping

Boulder...
where they have 12 step programs to recover from their 12 step programs.

This is what happens when God is kicked out of school.

By 2010, and I just pulled off all these statistics from the internet so you can get them as well, two-thirds of all jobs in the US will require a college degree... It turns out that only 18 percent of freshman in high school wind up graduating from college.

I guess this means 18% of the population will hold 66% of the jobs.

No wonder people claim to be overworked.

Boulder couldn’t turn any further left without falling off the Globe.

I certainly don’t agree with this kind of “education” for children. However, my nephew attends Boulder High School, and told me that they were not required to attend. They were given the choice between completing a written assignment and attending the presentation. Also, he seems to feel that some of the comments have been unfairly interpreted. According to him, most of the students and parents thought the assembly was a positive experience.

I don’t see the value in presenting some random person’s opinions to high school students, no matter what it is. Why are their opinions worth more than anyone else’s? Especially not, when they present drug use and teen sex as acceptable. I just wanted to point out that the some of the information from this article is incorrect.

The takeover is just about complete.

"I am going to encourage you to have sex and encourage you to use drugs appropriately," Becker said. "Why I am going to take that position is because you are going to do it anyway,"

I assume it will be o.k for gangbangers to get paid lectures on proper gun control when shooting at targets from the NRA because they are going to do it anyway,"

Junior Monsur Gidfar...I watched this confused little twit speak on O’Reilly .
We will probably see him running for office some day .

[kaehurowing]

It’s not too late to pull your kids out and send them to Christian schools and boycott the public eduation system in the U.S. If enough people do it, we’ll also have the votes to cut off their funding.

[socialismisinsidious]

"I am going to encourage you to have sex and encourage you to use drugs appropriately,"

Do you realize how incompetent this guy must be as a psychologist?....he actually believes he can say the word "appropriately" to a teen and that they will 1. hear it 2. know what it means 3. act on it.

The elite liberals of the world, those who spout rhetoric like: "I'm a heart liberal, but a mind conservative." (thank you Hillary) really mean "I'm a MINE conservative" MY kids will go to private school without all the socialist indoctrination. (do you think Chelsea was ever told this crap?!) MY money and property will be hidden from the tax man. MY house will have gas powered lights and MY transportation will be by private jet.

The senators said the production, a part of the Conference on World Affairs of the University of Colorado, was "a disgrace."

Secular-progressives don't care about grace, and don't care about disgrace, either.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. If you want on/off this list, please freepmail me. The main Homeschool Ping List by DaveLoneRanger handles the homeschool-specific articles.

[dandelion]

And my colleagues wonder why I homeschool!

Honestly, we had a whole boatload of these people around when I was in school, too. They’d go on and on about how it wasn’t natural for teenagers to be virgins, or for anyone to not drink, smoke or do drugs. I firmly believe they were trying to preach a self-fulfilling prophecy, and I believe they are trying to do so now, as well.

They were even more insistent when I was in college; as educators, we were not supposed to expect anything but hedonism from our students. Even then, most teachers wanted more for their students than libertine wantonness, but the humanist education movement was busy telling us that values were relative, no one value system was better than any other, and anyone who thought any differently was not fit to teach...

That’s what “Education Inc.” has brought us: thirty years of trying to destroy the moral fabric of America.
