VALUES

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a born again Christian. I read the Bible regularly and govern my life with biblical principles and ideals as my guide.

Who is responsible for teaching sexual education to children, and what is the appropriate age when it should be taught?

Parents are responsible for teaching sexual education to children. When I was in public school, the administration separated the girls from the boys and gave us basic information about how our bodies would develop. In that day and time, they did not go further with the information and it was general enough for students to understand and yet did not interfere with common values of families.

If you support the teaching of Sex Ed, please answer the following question: Sexual education should include these topics (list all that apply and add your own, if needed) -- abortion methods and side effects; abstinence; consent; contraceptive methods; human anatomy/the reproductive system; physical and emotional health outcomes; sex acts and pleasures of sex; sexual orientation and gender identity; stages of pregnancy and fetal development

Below is an excerpt from the policy EHAA Basic Instructional Program: Required Instruction (All Levels)that is used across the state of Texas in most public schools: Present abstinence as the preferred choice of behavior for unmarried persons of school age; Devote more attention to abstinence than to any other behavior; Emphasize that abstinence is the only method that is 100 percent effective in preventing pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, infection with HIV or AIDS, and the emotional trauma associated with adolescent sexual activity; Direct adolescents to a standard of behavior in which abstinence before marriage is the most effective way to prevent pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, and infection with HIV or AIDS; and As long as parents are required to OPT-IN and this is taught with parental knowledge - I support policy EHAA

Children have a right to reach maturity without chemical or surgical castration, which would damage their healthy bodies through surgeries and may cause infertility and a life-long dependence on cross-sex hormones.

Strongly Agree

I will speak out against the idea of promoting transgender ideology. I will stand against glamorizing the idea in the presence of minors. I am fully against pushing transgender idea on minors as I believe it is one of the cruelest things adults can do to minors.

Children have the right to be protected from hypersexualization (including drag shows and explicit materials) in schools and libraries.

Strongly Agree

Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman essential to the formation and sustaining of a civil and prosperous society.

Strongly Agree

Parents have the fundamental right to raise their child in accordance with their beliefs and values, including the right to make decisions about the child's education and healthcare.

Strongly Agree

Parents should have full and timely access to any and all records, including school and medical records, associated with their minor children.

Strongly Agree


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

EQUALITY

Biological males should not be allowed to participate in women's sports.

Strongly Agree

Strongly Agree
