What you have to know before facing the school board or Sex Ed committee
Imprinting
Imprinting is a powerful force that influences cognitive and emotional mechanisms that direct future behavior. Educational materials can imprint and influence your child’s sexual decisions.
Sex Crimes
Sex Crimes are illegal sexual acts, activities, or behaviors. If caught, participants are punished and labeled “Sex Offender” for life.
Gender fluidity
Gender fluidity is being taught to young children. They are told that they can be male one day and female the next regardless of their unchangeable chromosomal gender.
Sexual Identity
Sexual Identity is how one thinks of oneself in terms of to whom one is romantically or sexually attracted. Not to be confused with Sexual orientation or Gender identity.
Demonstrations
Find out if your school is teaching condom use by demonstrations and with co-Ed teams practicing putting on condoms. This classroom teaching method assumes and prepares underage students to engage in risky and illegal behavior.
Legality of sex
Curricula may be telling your child that sexual behaviors are permitted as long both parties consent. Children can’t legally consent to sexual contact until age 16 or 18 yet it is assumed that children are engaging and should be equipped with drugs and paraphernalia, without parental consent or knowledge.
Consequences of Support Enforcement
Is your school teaching about Support Enforcement. All non-custodial parents regardless of age are financially responsible. Your son or daughter will be mandated to make payment into middle-age under the threat of garnishment of wages, loss of license, inheritance or college opportunities.
Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor
Any action by an adult that allows or encourages illegal behavior by a person under the age of 18, or that places children in situations that expose them to illegal behavior is contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
