Activist: Teachers abuse 100 times more than priests, but we trust them with sex ed?

Though governments argue that teaching sex ed in schools is about student safety, one leading anti-sex-ed activist recently warned parents that it can actually put kids’ safety at risk. Many parents strongly object to government schools stepping in on such an intimate and personal matter. But is there also good reason for parents to distrust teachers’ motives in the classroom?

“As the sex-ed lessons start to be rolled out in classrooms across Ontario, parents need to critically evaluate the claim, repeatedly made by Premier Kathleen Wynne, that teachers are more trustworthy than parents to give sex education lessons,” Jack Fonseca of Campaign Life Coalition told LifeSiteNews. 

Fonseca laid out his concerns about teachers providing students with explicit sex-ed in a meeting with concerned parents last September at the Thorncliffe Park Library Community Centre in East York.
