As a sycophant of the incoming president, DeSantis is rebbing up to implement as much of Project 2025's objectives as he can. With the plan to create a Department of Life out of Health and Human Services which is focused on promoting the birthing of any child conceived, and not preventing any conception either, because of the Christian Nationalists writing the document, this is exactly what is wanted.
In fact, the education will be what John Dewey believed in, which is Experience in Education. That is to have a series of experiences leading to understanding of a topic. Usually provided by the teacher. In this case, all of them will learn about sex from experience, and unless they are prevented from having cell phones, or being around others their age who have them, kids are going to get most of their sex education from pornography on the internet. Or from personal experimentation.
I think that someone should take them to court for saying that abstinence is the only 100% safe way to prevent pregnancy or STDs because as far as I know masturbation also fits that description.
So, will be interesting to see how DeSantis handles his own daughter's sexuality. Will he stay in line, or treat her totally differently than the other children he is entrusted to protect and serve?
The lawsuit is an interesting idea; wonder what the courts would do with it? Or maybe a suit on behalf of children who become pregnant through lack of knowledge at some point? Hard to believe this is all happening...
It would be really hard to blame pregnancy on the state because they will say this is false, but one can poke holes in what they are teaching in courts. Also, gets the courts to take a stand on masturbation, which I think would lead to pushback. While pushing back the word would get out because the press would cover it. That would be a way of educating the students. In fact suing for every thing that is factually wrong would be a round about way of informing children. A suit that claims the truth is... on STD and pregnancy information is going to help spread the word to the ignorant masses.
We need to also find ways to educate children. A new comprehensive series on sex ed easily available online might help supplement what schools are not teaching and parents are not teaching.

Law for thee, but not for me. CONservative guidepost.

'poke holes'. you are so funny.
The conservative hope is that parents will take the place of schools in teaching sex education.
The better, but by no means optimal, solution is for schools to provide comprehensive sex and anatomy education allowing for parental opt outs.
We need to end the "I don't like it therefore YOU can't have it" dogma that pervades too many of us and leads to legislation like this.
