correlation between early Sexuality education and excellent results (re: teen pregnancies)...among several countries, not just the one I highlighted. Given the dismal results here in the U.S., it makes "Common Sense" to me that change is needed on that score and since others have consistently performed well over 30+ years, we should not reject such an approach out of hand.
We haven't even talked much about the benefits of such programs on "De-fusing" the animated debate over LGBTQ issue, which I believe is essential to reducing the incidence of suicides and other mental distress for fellow citizens dealing with those circumstances....based on some of your earlier posts, certainly you have some degree of empathy for that objective...true?
As far as my being "Hyper Focused"...I'm just sharing my views on the OP of someone who is truly "Hyper" when it comes to this issue...just look at the myriad posts of those who won't even look at real world data that runs contrary to their unsubstantiated opinions...also, and perhaps more importantly, I'm concerned that a potential Presidential candidate...Ron DeSantis...is taking ever increasing "Hyper" steps to inflame the electorate over something can and should be left to local school boards to consider...that is, to say the least, bothersome. Obviously, I disagree strongly with him and therefore I speak out in opposition...with hopefully reasoned arguments.
