NEA to UN: More Graphic Sex-Ed Needed
Perhaps you
thought public school sex education programs are graphic enough as it is. Not
so, according to a statement by the National Education Association's (NEA) Diane
Schneider to a U.N. panel last week. According to a
report by C-FAM, Schneider told the
audience at a panel on combating homophobia and transphobia that “[o]ral sex,
masturbation and orgasms need to be taught in education,” and that anyone
opposing homosexuality is “stuck in a binary box that religion and family
create.”
In other words, schools need to rescue children from “indoctrination” by their
parents and religion, and the U.N. should see that they do. Schneider also
“claimed that the idea of sex education remains an oxymoron if it is
abstinence-based, or if students are still able to opt out,” the article states.
ParentalRights.org disagrees with the notion that schools know better than
parents what is best for their children or what their children can handle. We
disagree with the idea that schools should undo all the character building and
value instilling that parents do at home. And we adamantly oppose the view that
the United Nations should take a role in any of it. And we know you do, too.
What We’re Doing to Address This
The NEA can
sway the U.N. more easily than they can persuade the American people. They know
that if they establish something at the U.N., they can find progressivist judges
who will uphold it here as “Customary
International Law.” And they must hope to see us ratify the
Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), thus obligating ourselves to uphold
whatever standards in child education the U.N. might dictate.
But we are championing a resolution in the U.S. Senate to prevent CRC
ratification. As of Friday it had 5 original co-sponsors, but we expect that
number to be closer to 30 when the resolution is introduced in the next week or
so. When we reach 34, any effort to ratify the CRC will effectively be killed.
Even more, the proposed Parental Rights Amendment will halt the use of
international law in our court rooms as it pertains to children and family. The
NEA’s end-around will be defeated; they won’t be able to impose their distorted
views on our kids without first winning over the American public.
Action Items
First, please spread the word. Encourage friends and family to sign the petition at ParentalRights.org and join upcoming call blitzes to push these pieces of legislation.
