Remove links to websites with offensive content
 

Please remove from Virginia School Health Guidelines the Advocates for Youth website, and any other links that provide content on abortion access, sexuality, gender identity and other related topics that should be discussed with parents. The amaze.com website is particularly inappropriate.

I disapprove of offensive websites that promote campaigns like “Abortion Out Loud” and “Free the Pill Youth Council”, that offer resources for abortion access, and provide animated video series aimed at young kids that talk about issues like abortion, sex, sexuality, and sexual identity, which should be reserved for parents to discuss.

Virginia schools should not promote materials or resources of a sexual nature with a child without parental knowledge; this undermines parents' rights to direct the health and education of our children.
