Should parents have to sign a permission slip for their children to take sex education?

Asked at Borders, 700 N.H. on June 15, 2005

“No. I feel it's something that should be standard in school. It's something every kid should go through.”

“No. I think that education is supposed to be on every aspect of life, preparing the child for adulthood. I think parents should get involved beforehand by participating in the school system.”

“I would say no, because then you would have conservative parents preventing their kids from receiving the necessary education.”

“I would say no. Sex and procreation are necessities, and it's necessary for children to learn about it. Especially the scientific and medical aspects as well as the responsibilities and dangers.”
