I do hope they offer an "opt-out" option for those parents that feel such as I do. Because if I lived in Cleveland, my child would not be apart of thiss.

I think that what you are saying is valid, and I would not want my young children(when I get some) being taught something I don't believe in. However, there are probably some parents out there who don't care what their children learn at all. Those children can grow up with warped perceptions of what is healthy and appropriate. Cleveland's plan doesn't seem like it would be giving out "how to have sex" guides for elementary school children, but rather guiding them to be aware of the dangers out there. If I were a parent in that area, I would want a syllabus or copy of the curriculum so I know where my role would differ, if any, from that of the school district's.
