An Oregon school district is facing backlash after slides from a sex-ed class surfaced revealing explicit language and emojis being used in lesson about pornography.
confirmed to Fox News that the series of slides about pornography are part of a state mandate that"students receive age-appropriate instruction to help them recognize and respond to unsafe situations and to increase awareness of child sexual abuse."
"You’re all getting triggered by the explicit words, but the message is obviously a warning that they should not believe the situations depicted in porn are normal," one Facebook user wrote."These kids live on the internet. Your teen children have all discovered porn, and they will not tell you that."But parents like Pulliam, whose children attend school in a different district, say the curriculum may have been well-intended, but the language in the slides goes too far.
Another slide is titled"Child-Like Porn & Power Dynamics" followed by teen, barely legal, step-brother, and"Daddy's Little Girl" as examples. A slide labeled"Small Groups" prompts students to read a scene, discuss, rewrite the scene and share it with the class while considering how"mainstream porn" may have influenced the situation.
Before teaching the sexual education lessons, Graser said families receive a letter notifying them about the topics to be covered. Parents may opt out of individual lessons or the entire curriculum.
