Default Re: 9th Circuit Decision Regarding Children and Sex

[ QUOTE ]
My question in all of these issues is that the school system has a right to determine a curriculum and determine what is appropriate to be taught. If the parents object to the curriculum, they can homeschool or send their children to private school.

What's next, parents will feel that teaching children about slavery is too detrimental to their mental health, so they have to strike that from the curriculum?

Agreed, but key here is not the issue of sex education. That is really neither here nor there. The problem is the 9th court ruling that parent to not have an "exclusive" right to the education of their children.

With that precedent, you may see homeschooling being shut down and maybe even private schooling shut down. It is a horrid ruling.

Its even questionable to the constitutionality of federally funded education. So 9th Court is dead on both counts.

9th Court needs to stop existing...
