I guess this is especially for SRS and Bill D, but the rest may read as well:

The Kansas School Board announced early this week that they have passed (standard 6 to 4 vote) a new regulation.

Instead of parents being permitted to "opt out" of sex education for their kids if they didn't want their little darlin's being taught nasty stuff, now ALL PARENTS who want their kids to have sex education will be required to formally and individually request (*opt in) that their kids be given this filthy stuff.

So "We'll run the schools, but you have to bring a note from your mommy if you want to learn anything."

A day or two after this change was announced, they released the information that they intend to consider, and expect to pass, a new standard requiring that "sex education" be strictly limited to "abstinence only teaching."

So "We'll run the schools, but you have to bring a note from your mommy if you want to learn anything, but it won't matter anyway because we don't intend to allow teaching you anything."

* Reports say this makes Kansas the 4th state to adopt the "opt in" rule.
