[quote=Anonymous]It is easier for both the school and the parents if people who object to public school sex ed are allowed to opt-out. There are fewer fights about the curriculum. Religiously conservative people feel more respected by an institution to which they also pay taxes. To me, as a liberal, that seems like a win-win. The MCPS curriculum doesn't look much different from the one I experienced 40+ years ago - lessons on plumbing, periods, disease, danger and death. It's important that kids who might receive absolutely no information about puberty get that information. Aside from that, we do not have a national consensus on how to best manage human sexuality so it's hard for the school to go beyond the basics in any direction.[/quote]
