Re: Sunday School classes teaching sex education

So even if I thought the curriculum was okay, I still might not want my child to hear it from certain people, because the curriculum will always have the slant of the teacher.
Bottom line, though, the church staff does not have the right to teach on sensitive topics (to minors) without the permission of the parents. Period.

I do agree that these things need to be discussed, and from a biblical perspective. But parents are NOT the enemy, and should never be left out of the equation.
