Child to view Sex Ed movie tomorrow

[ALLFORHIM]

wow what kind of school did you go to! We never covered homosexuality! and I was in sixth grade in 1996! Much more recent than the 80s. We never covered that graphic stuff in high school either. You had an unfortunate experience but that does not mean that all schools are like that. The parents should be involved in the school enough to know what it is like.

You should hear what my ninth grader is being taught about homosexuality. Her teacher has an agenda–not sure what it is but it doesnt agree with God–that’s for sure.

Apparently 2 years ago she told her health class that is was OK to experiment witth homosexuality

Im glad that kids mom warned me about the teacher and OF COURSE, my daughter got her for health

Thankfully I was warned and have open communication with my daughter daily about what this woman says.

SHE is being WATCHED!!

My child is 11 years old and is in the 6th grade he brought home a permission slip to be signed wether or not to let him view it. My wife feels that he shouldnt, I have mixed feelings about the situation and am wanting to hear what other Catholic parents would do in this situation.

He attends a local public school.

Thanks!

Did they give you the option to see the material that will be presented first? A LOT of parents have concerns about the public school sex agenda. If you got a bunch of parents together and asked to review the material before it is presented to the kids, you actually might succeed.

wow i’m sorry, maybe being from the south has kept me sheltered…I just can’t believe that is going on in the schools…I teach at the college level and I still feel uncomfortable talking about homosexuality from a psychological point of view…The only exposure to it in my liberal undergraduate college was how the Greeks and Romans were fond of it and used it in their art, and it used to be a psychological disorder but now it isn’t due to social pressure. Lol But I also feel that I was educated enough in my religious life to sort out the info if it presented itself.

I guess I am thankful that the south is a little more “religious” Hopefully I’ll have an easier time dealing with my children. But by the time I have children all that filth will probably be rampant everywhere. sigh But you can’t really say much nowadays without being called “intolerant”…I hate that excuse!

I know a woman whose 14-year-old daughter was removed from her “abusive” home by CPS because she told the school counselor her mother would not allow the boyfriend to spend the night. Mom was told that it was important to let her daughter experiement with her sexuality and that her religious restrictions were fanatical and psychologically damaging. This is a plain-ol Catholic mom – not a nut case. The flags went up for the public school folks when this woman decided to home school starting with the following semester after her 3rd grader came home with material affirming the homosexual lifestyle.

Clearly, the woman’s a flaming right wing lunatic. Right?

He’s 11 and I’m betting that sex has been a topic of conversation between him and his peers for a while now. It certainly was when I was that age back in the 60s. When my kids were in school in the 90s, girls not much older than he is were offering oral sex for money.

I’d let him go to the class and ask the teacher to view the material that is presented – I’m not sure an 11 year old boy will want to discuss what he saw with his parents. His peers? Yes. His parents? Not likely.

Goodness. As if I haven’t lost enough faith in human beings, any shred of it that I had has just been burned up after reading this. I am so, so, so sorry to hear this…

Foxnews would tell her story. Really. Try to get her on it.

Now the government is trying to tell us that raising our children with a religious background is ABUSIVE? Do they know the psychological ramifications of sex at such a young age? not to mention risk for stds! You would do more psychological harm allowing the boyfriend to stay over…and that isn’t even religion speaking…that’s science! This isn’t right, this needs to be prosecuted! Did she get her daughter back?

Call the school and ask to view the video before class time, you can decide based on that.

As for teaching at home, I’d suggest Mast’s work (google Mast Sex Respect and you will find a link to her web page).

I would rather not go into this further lest I violate a confidence. But it IS ghastly. That mom is a very strong woman!

That is fine, but don’t let this slide. Encourage, even insist that your friend do something about it!

At one time they used to allow the parents to sit in - boys were in one class and girls in other. I know I attended for my daughter at this level but it is really the questions that the students themselves ask. Whatever they ask, the instructor will answer but they answer from their own viewpoint.

I took a son out of junior high health only to have the teacher call me and tell me that she hoped I talked to him about HIV because I was doing him harm by not letting him take the class.

I later took my son out of high school health class, even wrote a letter to the local newspaper on it hoping other parents would do the same. My son felt bad because they put him in a room by himself during the class. I probably should have just kept him home.

The sad part for me was that my husband and I knew some of these teachers as they were our peers in school.

My parents were never asked to sign anything before I took health in 7th grade back in 1997. There was a lot of biology involved, and the process of fertilization was shown in a documentary from the point of view of an artificially inseminated sperm with a camera attached to it was shown. We also learned how to use condoms and spermicide and why we should use latex condoms instead of sheepskin, and I remember asking what those allergic to latex should do about wearing condoms (they had to abstain). We had to carry flour babies around to encourage us to do anything necessary to avoid teen pregnancy, and we saw a really old after-school special movie about a 15 year old girl who got pregnant and whose boyfriend then abandoned her. I had to take health again in 8th grade to reinforce everything.

It wasn’t until my brief stint at a Catholic high school two years later when I had to read “Did Adam and Eve Have Belly Buttons?” that I learned that a lot of that stuff was wrong.

I live in NJ–an EXTREMELY LIBERAL state so that probably is why it is more rampant up here.

Feel blessed that you live in the south:thumbsup:
