Let me begin by Asking that my Wife by Respected in this Discussion and not the Issue. I Know about this because my Wife is an Elementary Teacher in Jefferson County, the Largest School District in Colorado... The last time she Taught 5th Grade, which was 3 years ago, she had this Material provided to her and her Class by the County... This is from her copy.
Again, I will NOT answer questions about her and I am asking that she NOT be Discussed.
This has been an ongoing Debate between myself and some who Deny this Exists or that it is and has been Taught for Decades in "Growing and Changing" for 5th Graders in Jefferson County...
Adams County, which includes a lot of Denver Public Schools, were using the same type of Materials in Elementary back in the late 70's when I was that age and it's my Understanding that DPS proper has the same Materials.
Here are some Notable pages from the Handbook that is given to each 5th Grader, unless their Parents Opt them out of the Course:
Note the "Sexual Intercourse" section that starts on page 35.
The reason this EVER became an Issue was because some on the Left think that "Gay Children" are Underserved in the Education System and need to be Included.
My Question was, what do you do with this SexEd book?...
It certainly doesn't Include ANYTHING for Homosexuals and thier "Intercourse", so should it?...
If they aren't Included, isn't it Exlcusionary and Wrong?
Or should, as I Believe, the subject of Homosexuality be Reserved for Adults?
If you Believe that Homosexual Sex should be Included as not Exclude any Possible Homosexual Children, then how would you word it, Considering how "Sexual Intercourse" is Described in this Booklet for 5th Graders?
Discuss.
peace...
