Remove links to websites that undermine parental rights
 

To Whom it May Concern,

Please remove 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 from the VA School Health Guidelines.

I disapprove of the offensive content that promotes things like Abortion Out Loud and Free the Pill Youth Council; the resources for abortion access and any series that is targeted to young kids that talks about issues like abortion, sex, sexuality, and sexual identity.  These conversations should be reserved for the parents to speak about to their children - not the state or any education system.

You cannot promote materials and resources of a sexual nature that could be shared with a child WITHOUT PARENTAL KNOWLEDGE, and undermine a parent's right to direct the health and education of their children.

Sincerely,

Shana Daniel
