Too bad if you want sex

"Wow the nurse is here. I wonder what that means?" Greg said mischieviously as he walked into the classroom. "You're late Greg, hurry up and sit down, this lesson will be of particular importance to you" I gently chided. The rest of the class broke into laughter. Greg had a pretty new girlfriend and always made sure everyone else knew, both staff and students.

"Is this a sex talk sir?" piped up Jane from the back of the class. The rest of the class erupted."Sex talk" "Great, sex" "I know it all" "If you need some advice sir, don't be too shy to ask"

"Settle down kids, I've got some shiny new books for you to look at. Greg, come up here and help hand them out." The school had ordered one hundred books dedicated to teaching students about "Life Skills" and I had been asked to talk about sex, and contraception.

After brainstorming ways to be safe, we turned to our new books, the chapter titled "Sexual Health and Disease." The kids began to read. I quickly scanned the first page, not finding what I was expecting to see. I scanned the second and third page and I regretted not checking out the new books beforehand.

The kids began to laugh. The book did not mention 'Condoms' once. It didn't talk about any actual contraceptive devices. It talked about 'Healthy relationships, abstinence, and friends who don't put pressure on you'

It did talk about HIV, and told them to 'take up a hobby'

I'm requesting the school send the books back.
I've also heard a rumor that the USA has passed laws restricting what sex education books can say.
I want to know if this is true.
I will bring a book home from work and give you the name, authors and publisher.
