Bush administration propaganda masking itself as sex education

The site is drummed out by the Department of Health and Human Services and sponsored by National Physicians Center for Family Resources. Sex education is a stretch here, the entire site promotes abstinence and abstinence only. The information obtained from the site is misleading and in most cases it uses inaccurate statistics to promote it's pro-life agenda. It also advises parents on how they can spy on their children and plants messages about the benefits of joining the military after high school. The National Physicians Center for Family Resources has links to The Heritage Foundation on their site.

I was at the store yesterday and ran into Kendrick, Mrs. Jakes' son. He joined the military after high school. What do you think you want to do when you graduate from high school?

Meanwhile…
Set goals for your future.
Join a community- or faith-based organization.
Help start a neighborhood project.
Join an after school activity like band, the choir, a sports team, etc.
Decide what you want to do after you graduate from high school … military, college, work, etc.
Look for summer programs and internships.

Join the military and die in Iraq!"
