State Mandated LGBTQ Lessons Coming to Your Children’s School


Massachusetts’ Board of Elementary and Secondary Education has adopted a new sex education curriculum that will be more inclusive to LGBTQ individuals.

In other words, new state-mandated education on LGBTQ topics to children.

Fox News has more on the story:

Massachusetts public school students will receive updated sex and health education that is intended to be more inclusive of the LGBTQ+ community and teach about bodily autonomy, mental and emotional health, dating safety, nutrition, sexually transmitted infections and consent after officials unanimously voted to adopt new curriculum.

For the first time since 1999, the state Board of Elementary and Secondary Education (BESE) will adopt a new set of curriculum frameworks for schoolchildren from kindergarten to 12th grade.

While these new frameworks have been approved, Massachusetts does not require schools to teach sexual education, but recommends them. Districts can choose whether to adopt the curriculum or write their own standards.

Gov. Maura Healey, the nation’s first openly lesbian governor, celebrated the decision, saying in a press conference Tuesday that the state “is leading the way by providing a health and physical education framework that is inclusive, medically accurate and age-appropriate to help them make decisions that are right for their health and wellbeing.”

“We are grateful to the Board for approving the first update to the health education frameworks in more than two decades, and we appreciate the input we received from residents across the state,” she added.

The state’s new sex and health education standards include different guidelines for four age groups: pre-K through second grade; grades 3-5; grades 6-8; and grades 9-12.

Democrats always made Republicans out to be crazy for believing in a slippery slope with all this LGBT stuff.

But here we are.

More states will start to follow suit; just wait.

Let’s turn it over to CBS News for more on the story:

For the youngest students, the standards have to do with learning about healthy eating; managing stress and demonstrating self-control; practicing hygienic habits such as washing hands; learning how to respond in emergency situations; discussing gender-role stereotypes and treating all people with respect; defining bullying; explaining why taking medicine as directed is important, among other goals.

As children get older, the guidelines include education about sex, healthy romantic relationships, gender identity, substance use and misuse, how to identify and stay safe from human and sex trafficking, and more specific, science-based methods for physical education.

This was always part of their plan.

Mold children why they’re young and ensure they think all this madness is ordinary.

Teaching gender identity to kids? What else is there to know other than your biological sex?
