I hope they get sued. I’m not allowed to send an aspirin to school with my daughter but the school has a right to medicate her without my permission, or even my knowledge?

As long as it’s regarding sex, it seems the schools have unlimited discretion to do, say, or give anything they want to the kids.

What’s next? Will they provide a bed and some private time for the kids who want to have sex?

And I’m sure B/C hormones don’t affect the development of girls going through puberty...

This is madness. We are killing ourselves with chemicals.

"Parents should be the sex educator for their children," Levkoff said. "The problem is not every parent feels empowered [to do so]."

Given the recent opinions of California judicial activists, East Coast government indoctrination camp kommissars - excuse me, I meant "public school superintendents" - and ACLU lawyers, who can blame them?

And what in blue blazes it is of the school’s that anyone is sexually active or not? Not to mention just because someone says they are or aren’t doesn’t mean they’re telling the truth.

Parents don't feel empowered? Well, the solution is obviously to take all power away from parents and give it to the schools. That'll help. [/s]

Thank God i don't have children in school anymore! I'm afraid there would be a serious arse whipping in someones future. With me having to do a little “time out” in the county jail.

Science and the MSM won’t admit that the chemicals in Birth Control Pills/Patches cause cancer.
Anybody else notice the dramatic increase in women’s cancer begining about 20 years after the introduction of the pill?

[gridlock]

Has the school bothered to determine how many of the sexual partners of these children are adults? Or are they just going to provide birth control and look the other way?

[ArrogantBustard]

Logan Levkoff, a sexologist and relationship expert, should be publicly flogged, and pilloried in the town square.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. If you want on/off either list, please freepmail me and let me know which list it is that you want to be put on or taken off of.

Whatever happened to schools doing the teaching they're supposed to be doing?

Instead, they're trying to become medical clinics handing out medicine by a school nurse and LEO by strip searching 13 year old girls for contraband Advil.

[metmom]

They’ll get sued as soon as the adverse health affects of being on hormones hits these girls.

Wait until you see this one. I am so glad to get my child out of the school’s hands. Why they think they have the right to give my child at 11 yrs old birth control is not ok with me.

[metmom]

Not if I were on your jury.

[metmom]

Not likely, and probably.
