My calendar agreed.

A few weeks ago we had a thoughtful presentation at church teaching us what is now allowed in the schools here in California concerning sex education, gender identification, etc.

Regardless of how a parent feels about this, or what they wish to teach their children instead, or how they wish to teach their children, it should be the parents' decisions not the schools'.

And furthermore, the way I understand the law states now, any teacher at any time during school, can randomly teach your child about sex and other personal issues. 

We were advised during that meeting to educate ourselves in these matters and do all we can to question what is being taught, and to fight against laws that take away parental rights.

In other words, the parents should be the ones making these decisions about our children, not the schools. 

We were encouraged to voice our concerns or questions during this church meeting.  

One man in our ward, a father of 4 little daughters, stood and quietly said he had something to say. He talked powerfully about how we need to stand up for what is right for the benefit of our children. 

He explained that he was the only one who stood outside his daughters' school with a sign on "take your kids out of school day." 

I was in awe by his courage, and determination, and taking the day off work to do this.

The very next day was July 1st and time to turn my calendars in our house over to the next month. 

When I flipped over the calendar in our laundry room this is what I saw:
