The following comes from a June 1 story in the Christian Post.
A first of its kind sex education program is being taught in the Los Angeles Unified School District, in which students as young as 12 are encouraged to share their HIV and STD status with their sexual partners by way of a text message that reveals they were tested for HIV, chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis. The text message also includes a disclaimer which reads: “This person MAY have had sex since being tested. Always be safe, use condoms.”
In their heath classes, students in the seventh through 12th grades will watch a three-minute YouTube video created by the company Qpid, pronounced cupid, which tells students to go to the nearest Planned Parenthood clinic, or HIV testing center to be tested, and to then register at the qpid.me website to share their results online or by phone. The test, however, doesn’t confirm a diagnosis of HPV or herpes.
The Qpid YouTube video states that students must be 13 to use their free program. However, their website also notes that “children as young as 12 can get tested for STDs without the need for parental consent in the state of California.”
….The list of advisers for the Qpid program include: Dr. Roni Zeigler, the former chief health strategist for Google; Dr. Jeffrey Klauser, former director of STD prevention at the San Francisco Department of Public Health; Vincent Vigil, director of the LGBT resource center at the University of Southern California; Kicesie Drew, a blogger who has an adult sex channel on YouTube; and Tim Kordic, the program manager for the HIV/AIDS prevention unit at the LAUSD….

Sure every parent should feel really warm and fuzzy about this one!
Your child’s medical information and admission of sexual activity will be out there on the net for every freak and pervert nationwide to hand pick their next target!
Talk about an abuse of authority, common sense, technology and morality all rolled into one big fat offensive mess! You can’t make this stuff up!
Parents – TALK to your kids about abstinence.
Save their health and Save their Souls at the same time.
Weren’t priests molesting kids as young as 7 or 8? Isn’t incest and sexual assault by family members against minors still a problem in the U.S.?
It’s not always the case that these children are promiscuous. Sex is sometimes forced on them by adults who are supposed to know better. When children can’t trust the adults closest to them, it is critical that they have a means to get help outside of their innermost circle.
The referenced article certainly makes it sound like this bill is promoting promiscuity amongst children. That is most certainly NOT the intent of this bill. We have a moral imperative to help protect these children. So, I think it best that we think through all possible scenarios – even the most horrendous – and figure out how best to server our youth.
Is there any time devoted to teaching core subjects, such as reading, math and science, so that the children can go on to higher education? No wonder test scores on basic subjects are so low. It sounds like L.A.U.S. D. is training some of the children to work in the sex industry. What are parents to do? Private schools are too expensive for most families, and home schooling isn’t possible if both parents work.
Sarah,
What would happen if one parent did not work? What would you have to SACRIFICE? If you don’t SACRIFICE now and do what needs to be done to save your kids, just wait until they become teeanagers. As the voice of experience, “I’m just sayin'”. Pray about it. Our Blessed Mother will help you.
I’m really concerned. This is not just this issue but the real issue is the lack of parent authority. Parents need to parent again and take back their children. If it becomes a united effort, then those bad behaved kids won’t be able to influence other kids.
How does Planned Parenthood gain so much power? It is the lack of parents joining together to stop this evil organization. Maybe it is the fact that there are many Hispanics in that area that do not speak the language or they just trust too much or are not home to notice?
We are forgetting that in order for this government and or Planned Parenthood to continue in power, is that people have to keep supporting it. There is obviously an huge number that supports these wicked things, whether they be deceived into it or not. I remember in high school Planned Parenthood knew how to appeal to the youth. They thought free health care support, they saw it as their friend. Still that is strong today. I didn’t even know that Planned Parenthood meant abortion, of course that was when I was ignorant and naive about the adult world. I was the youth, they glorified us. They acted like our friends. Praise God I was always suspicious of them and I had morals….especially I grew up fearing the Lord…too bad many of our youth today do not fear the Lord. Many act like they are bigger and better…..to no fault of their own…the adults have scandalized these children.
Abeca,
It is very likely that the people did not support the present government. Have you read about the massive voter fraud? With it, we have become another banana State!
God bless, yours in Their Hearts,

Mr Fisher I have not heard any facts on that. I have not been up to date with news and such. Thank you for keeping me informed but I will see if when I have time, I will do my research. I know that there are a lot of rumors that go around but to know which are fact? Well that is another story and if things are true, then what can we do about it?
With current media revelations how the fed govt has been “wire tapping” zillions of emails, can there be any doubt that rigging voter machines and gaining inside information on private business matters, as well as digging up black mail dirt on competitors is a stretch?
