Ep 663 | The Truth About 'Comprehensive ...

BLAZE PODCAST NETWORK
About this episode

Today we're joined by Monica Cline – public speaker, consultant, and founder of It Takes a Family – to talk about the dangers of comprehensive sex education for kids and how parents should be involved in their kids' education. Monica started out as a family planning educator for young people at Planned Parenthood, where she learned the tactics that end up encouraging kids to think about graphic sexual activities. We discuss why comprehensive sex education at a young age can actually pressure kids into having sex rather than prevent them and why "consent education" for kids shouldn't exist when kids aren't capable of sexual consent. Then we talk about the importance of parental roles in this sphere – how kids need boundaries and clarity from their parents and how many governmental institutions, as well as Planned Parenthood, see parents as "barriers to service." Then, Monica shares her story of how she had her son and came to Christ.
