Dombrowsky says the Catholic community should know the topic of her new ‘sex ed’ curriculum espouses their values, but after defending the changes for two days, Premier Dalton McGuinty announced a change of heart yesterday. He says it’s important to educate elementary kids about sex, but adds the government clearly didn’t do a good enough job of consulting parents on the ideas. The proposed changes outraged some religious and conservative groups, who say they’re not comfortable with teaching kids in Grade 3 about same-sex families and sexual orientation.
