DailyKenn.com — Parents will decide if their children may be taught sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression in government schools if legislation passed by Arizona's House of Representatives becomes law.
Without parents' express permission, government schools in that state will effectively be prohibited from indoctrinating children with sex education.
Some criticized the measure, condemning it as anti-homosexual.

• While the federal government appears to be regressing under Democratic Party occupation of the White House, red states are infused with sanity and compassion.
• Government schools have assumed the roll of surrogate parents as if they believed natural parents and traditional families are toxic. In reality, traditional families appear to be the most beneficially effective social structure in existence.

The 31-28 party-line vote by the House also spells out that sex education of any type is forbidden before the fifth grade. And SB 1456 would mandate yet another special permission — beyond what parents need to provide for their children to take sex-ed classes — to be taught anything about AIDS and the HIV virus that causes it.
Approval of the measure came as proponents said this ensures that parents know — and approve — what their children are being taught. SB 1456 specifically gives parents more rights and time than they have now to review the instructional materials and activities before deciding whether to opt-in to such instruction.
