Remove sexual content and website links leading to such inappropriate, offensive content...
 

#BeNotified #VoicesForOurChildren #DoTheRightThing2022  We urge the VA Dept. of Health to clean up the Virginia School Health Guidelines by removing the Advocates for Youth website and any/ALL links that provide content on abortion access, sexuality, gender, and other related topics that only we parents and grandparents should be discussing with our young'nes.

The offensive websites that promote campaigns like "Abortion Out Loud" and "Free the Pill Youth Council" are WRONG.  We fully disagree with offering resources for girls/women to take the life from babies in the womb or outside the womb.  Just as offensive is the VA Dept. of Health's animated video series aimed at young kids who have NO NEED to be exposed to issues about things like aborting baby boys and girls, sexual intercourse, and sexual matters that belong to the responsibility of us parents.

Also, we urge you to remind the Virginia Dept. of Health that they cannot promote materials and resources of a sexual nature that could be seen by a child whose parent(s) are not made aware of it first-hand; To undermine a parent's right and responsibility to direct the health and education of their children is to break the law of ethics, humanity, and faith.
