Sex education ‘is under attack’ by a wave of proposed legislation, advocate warns | PBS News Weekend

"It's really important to understand that sex education is under attack. And it is under attack by the same groups that are trying to ban books stop trans youth from being able to play sports or use the bathroom that they need, and the same groups that are trying to ban teaching accurate history. The [ bans] are all connected, and which tells us that these groups are actually working to exert power and control our kids. They are not trying to keep kids safe and healthy. 

 Parents can do something about these [bans]. You can start by finding out what's currently taught in your kids school. And if it's not sufficient, ask for better. Now we did mention that there are people who live in states and communities where sex education is not permitted to be taught in schools."
