What the heck!!

So..I'm taking Christina to the doctor today and I turn on WMUZ and it's the news hour with Bob Dutko show and he starts talking about Boulder High School and the Conference on World Affairs they had.
From what I have researched there was a 4 person panel that encouraged the students to have sex, and experiment with drugs, the reason..."your going to do it anyway"!
We are talking about mature adults telling 14 -17 year olds to have sex and take drugs responsibly! Now I don't know about you but this kinda upsets me to think that this type of forum could be set up in a PUBLIC school, with mandatory attendance by the students.
I don't have a problem with educating our kids on certain issues, but I think that the responsibility lies at home and not in school, are we as a society so lazy, that we can't take the time to tell our kids about sex and drugs?
Here is what distresses me the most, being a part of celebrate recovery, and having my own addictions, I can tell you that there are alot of hurting people out there, and I just don't think that this type of stuff is going to make it any better for the future of our kids.

Can anybody say Statutory rape? Statutory rape is the crime of sex with a minor under the age of consent (AOC), the age at which individuals are considered competent to give consent to sexual conduct, but past the age of puberty. It is a generic term; different jurisdictions use many different statutory terms for the crime, such as "sexual assault", "rape of a child", "corruption of a minor", "carnal knowledge of a minor", or simply "carnal knowledge". Statutory rape differs from forcible rape in that overt force or threat need not be present. The laws presumes coercion, because a minor is legally incapable of giving consent to the act.

The term statutory rape generally refers to sex between an adult and a sexually mature minor. Sexual relations with a prepubescent child, generically called "child molestation", is uniformly treated as a more serious felony.

That is the way of socialism. It just isn't in markets but in your individual life as well. The government knows best!
