Guidelines for Educators

In order for schools to receive particular funding, they have to abide by several rules when they are teaching sex education. These rules are taken directly from a government website and state that in order for a program to qualify for funding under the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996. Teachers must cover all of these points in their presentations of sex education:

(A) has as its exclusive purpose, teaching the social, psychological, and health
gains to be realized by abstaining from sexual activity;

(B) teaches abstinence from sexual activity outside marriage as the expected
standard for all school age children;

(C) teaches that abstinence from sexual activity is the only certain way to avoid
out-of-wedlock pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, and other associated
health problems;

(D) teaches that a mutually faithful monogamous relationship in context of
marriage is the expected standard of human sexual activity;

(E) teaches that sexual activity outside of the context of marriage is likely to
have harmful psychological and physical effects;

(F) teaches that bearing children out-of-wedlock is likely to have harmful
consequences for the child, the child’s parents, and society;

(G) teaches young people how to reject sexual advances and how alcohol and
drug use increases vulnerability to sexual advances; and

(H) teaches the importance of attaining self-sufficiency before engaging in
sexual activity.

All of this is taken from:

Along with those guidelines, there are also some of the myths that are being taught in the classrooms.

In addition to these asinine rules, I also have a little funny video that touches on abstinence-based education:
