NY Times sinks to a new low... (I thought they couldn't get any lower)

So to say “many schools” is a lie.

In my county, the earliest a student begins to learn about the reproductive system is 5TH grade (11 years old). And even then, parents have the option to opt out if they so choose to.

What is a "flat out lie" in what I stated?
You stated that many schools are teaching kids that’s it’s OK to be gay or to “change what they have”. Which isn’t true. 

Many schools aren’t teaching that. Do you have an exact number?

I’ve been teaching for 14 years and have never once heard either of those things being taught. In fact, when I teach the family life portion, I answer many questions with “ask a trusted adult at home” because it’s not my place to answer some of those questions. I teach reproductive anatomy and that’s it. The boys and girls are separated and parents can opt out if they don’t want their child to be in those specific lessons. Good hygiene is also taught.  

Now are there a few teachers preaching their own personal beliefs? Sure. Just like there a few bad apples at every job, there are a few bad teachers. However the majority of teachers I have worked with are encouraging, smart, thoughtful and do their best to help every kid learn.

So your statement (which was made without actual facts but instead feelings), is false.
