Noelle shares insight from her work as a certified sex ed teacher, a Paralegal for the Child & Parental Rights Campaign and as the Co-Founder and President of Protect Student Health. She gives eye-opening examples of how Comprehensive Sex Ed is desensitizing and manipulating children in classrooms across the country and what parents can do about it.

Schools today are no longer a playground. They're a battleground for a child's mind, will and emotion. Listen in as Suzanne poses some critical questions that determine if a parent's vision and desired outcomes align with what and who is teaching their child?

• What is the true definition of education?
• How do you define success in the world of education?
• What could education look like if:
  • Processing was encouraged and questions were expected?
  • Students were discipled rather than indoctrinated?
  • Facts were presented and opinions were processed?
  • Freedom of thought and speech was valued and choices with consequences were practiced?
  • The truth was taught and theories were discussed?
