Remove links that undermine parental rights re VDH, Virginia School Health Guidelines
 

I urge the VDH to remove from the Virginia School Health Guidelines, the Advocates from Youth website and any other links that provide and promote content on abortion access, gender identity, sexuality and any other subject that should be age-appropriately set aside for discussion as parental rights. 

As a parent and grandparent in Virginia for many years, I disapprove of the offensive campaigns such as "Abortion Out Loud," and "Free the Pill Youth Council" which offers resources for abortion access and provides an animated video series aimed at young kids promoting abortion, sexuality, sexual identity, and sex which I strongly believe these subjects and discussions should be reserved for parents.

The VDH cannot promote materials and resources of a sexual nature that could be shared with a child without parental knowledge and undermind a parent's right to determine the health and education of their children.
