"Parents will be given barely any say in the content of sex education classes under [British] Government plans to make the subject compulsory for children as young as five" (Laura Clark, "Parents 'Will Have No Say' Over Sex Education in Schools," Daily Mail, July 20, 2009).

According to the report, this subject will become mandatory for primary and secondary schools. The article went on to state that "there is a different agenda at work to undermine the role of parents and to tear down moral standards." (Source: Daily Mail [London].)
