The morally misguided idea that elementary children can give consent to sex is evil. Children are being abused when they are introduced to explicit sex.
Teaching children about giving consent 'presupposes that sexual activity even at the ‘earliest ages’ is alright, providing that you consent,' says REAL Women's Gwen Landolt.
A coalition of groups is trying to create public acceptance for the curriculum that was shelved in 2010 by running newspaper ads, hosting a website, and holding public meetings in an attempt to white wash the sex ed program.
