Remove links to websites that undermine parental rights
 

VDH needs to remove the Advocates for Youth website from the VA School Health Guidelines and any other links that provide content on sexuality, gender identity, abortion access, and any other related topics that should be discussed with parents.  I disapprove of the offensive website that features "Abortion Out Loud" and "Free the Pill Youth Council", along with other matters.  These and other resources aimed at young kids that talk about abortion, sex, sexuality and sexual identity should be only between children and their parents.

VDH cannot promote materials and resources of a sexual nature that could be shared with a child without parents' knowledge. They are seeking to undermine a parent's right to direct the health and education of their children.
