Dear Parents, Shut up. Love, Maryland
0 Comments Published by Hilary July 16th, 2007 in "Comprehensive" Sex Ed, Principles of EducationI’m afraid I missed this little gem from the Wash Post over the July 4th holiday. Apparently, in Maryland, parents are not fit to educate their own children. That responsibility lies to the state:

Jason Evert on Abstinence Education
1 Comment Published by Hilary July 15th, 2007 in "Comprehensive" Sex Ed, Principles of EducationJason Evert of the Pure Love Club and an affiliate of the Abstinence Clearinghouse, was recently interviewed by Zenit.

0 Comments Published by Hilary July 9th, 2007 in Contraception: Hormonal, Contraception: Prophylactics, Guest Commentary, Planned ParenthoodThe following commentary is by Joey Kerlin, Researcher for STOPP Planned Parenthood.
