William F Dankenbring

Millions are concerned about the latest trend in U. S. education - sex education beginning in kindergarten. Outraged, indignant parents protest. Others approve. What is all the uproar about? And now, sex education has erupted onto the scene. Newer than the New Math, sex education has become one of the hottest, most controversial topics of our day. In communities throughout the United States, parents have organized to combat modern progressive trends in sex education. They are especially opposed to sex education in primary grades. Mill ions of others are confused, perplexed. They wonder, "Isn't sex education a good thing?" "Shouldn't young children learn about sex at school?" The battle lines have been drawn between the advocates of "the Old Morality" and "the New Morality." Much of the growing concern over sex education comes from the middle class. It is time we looked at the real answers to today's questions about sex education for children. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
