Although I am aware that HB 88 would still allow for Abstinence Until Marriage (AUM) to be taught in our public schools, it would no longer be the standard and parents would have to intervene if they wanted their children to receive Abstinence Until Marriage.Abstinence Until Marriage has helped reduce teen pregnancy rates since its inception in the mid-1990s. It requires that students be taught that abstinence from all sexual activity until they are in a “mutually faithful monogamous heterosexual relationship in the context of marriage” is the expected standard and is “the only certain means of avoiding out-of-wedlock pregnancy, [and] sexually transmitted diseases …including HIV/AIDS.” Anything other than this as the State’s standard does not provide our children with the best protection.Thank You, Representative,

We have been married for 20 years and have 5 children. We are against the idea of our children being taught that anything can be considered Mutually faithful. Marriage between a husband and a wife (1Man 1 Woman) is the only healthy relationship that should be involved in sexual intercourse. Children are being pushed to grow up to fast, they are being pushed into thinking that somthing is wrong with them if they are not in a relationship. Children do not have the concernment or maturity to be involved in relationships. Teaching them about sex in these ways is another way of making them feel like sex is for everyone at any age. I do not want my children to be harmed in this way. The pregnacy rate will increase with this change in what is taught in schools. The number of STD's will increase as well as HIV. Deaths at a younger age will follow. Please do not follow through with these change's to our curriculum. We Are very concerned about this recent decision.
