On March 11, 2021, the State Board of Education unveiled the new 60-page proposed K-12 “health” curriculum. It was comprehensive – and alarming.

The outrage by parents across the state was swift. One week later, NFFV released a five-page list of the obvious “red flags” in that document.

NFFV began spreading the word and meeting with parents across the state. At one NFFV workshop, parents met with Mark Bonkiewicz, the NFFV leader, to ask what they could do. Mark worked closely with them to form Protect Nebraska Children Coalition (PNCC), a group specifically focused on organizing parents on this issue.

Protect Nebraska Children Coalition gathered over 20,000 Facebook members in four short months. Together with NFFV, they became a major force in the battle!

These should all be taught, especially where the parts of your reproductive parts are and their functions. Have you ever been on the Internet? People’s knowledge is atrocious. 10-11 sounds like the perfect time to explain puberty, gender, sex, etc since sone girls would start their periods at that time and before teens become very interested in other teenagers.

I don’t get their complaint about how having kids determine how people express their gender is somehow inappropriate. What does “gender identity and sexuality identity go hand in hand” have to do with this?

If you took out all those “red flags”, what even is left? “Sex is bad, do bad things to your spouse only”? That didn’t *ever* cut it, and in the age of the internet, it’s basically less than nothing.

Reminds me of the saying, “My church taught me two things – God loves me and I’m going to Hell, and sex is evil and disgusting and you should save it for the person you love.”

Oh, and based on what little I know about social media, 20,000 supporters in four months doesn’t sound like a huge groundswell.

Your kids will either learn this stuff from teachers with actual facts on their side, or from internet porn. Either way, you can't shield them forever. Learning how your body works and what's going to happen during puberty is important for kids.

And if the latter becomes the case, they might later quote Billie Eilish and claim that porn destroyed their brain. Maybe they fall into the trap of thinking that they are supposed to do everything they’ve seen in porn on the internet, even things they don’t feel comfortable with. Or else they’re ‘prudish’ and to be looked down on.

I still believe she making excuses for being a womanteen.

It will very likely fuck up their perception of their bodies, their partner's bodies and what their partners might expect of them. There are plenty of teens out there who think there's something wrong with their labia because it doesn't look like in the porn, for example.

@Speakeasy #111217

Don’t get me started on how women’s parts are perceived that has no basis in reality. There are actual people who think women with big labias must have had sex with a lot of men.

Teens talk to each other and they will spread misinformation amongst themselves. The parents here are idiots if they think this protest will keep their kids from learning anything contrary to their beliefs.

These parents are trying to glue the stopper shut on the bottled genie. They still think, laughably, that they can control what their children are exposed to in the age of the Internet.

And who will pay for their failure? The children they're so desperate to protect.
