KREM2: Washington Faces Condom Conundrum

Item: Washington schools face condom conundrum /KREM2

More Info: A new Washington State law requires schools not only teach 12 and 13-year old children about condoms, but also how to use them. Condom use is already taught in sex education courses but the key phrase is that the state now wants to teach students “how” to use them, and that has some school officials looking for a way around the new rules. “Check expiration date.” “Carefully open the condom wrapper.” “Roll the condom down.”
