Opposed. Please reject this amendment.
Opposed. Please reject this amendment.
Parents already have the right to opt their children out of material to which the parent objects. This legislation is unnecessary and would be a poor use of our teachers' already limited time.
Parents who object to specific materials: talk to your children's teachers. If, after discussing material with the teacher, you still object to it, opt your child out. You are already entitled to do this.
