Those Fraser guidelines seem very sensible, IMO - I had not seem them before. My concern is motivated by the fact that in my experience with sex-ed programs in both Colorado and New Zealand, I witnessed the role of parents being actively undermined (a practice which those guidelines would seem to discourage). Sure, some people are shitty parents, and if my daughter is seeking such advice behind my back, maybe it's just because she should be able to, maybe it's because I'm already failing in parental responsibilities. But when I've heard the phrase "don't tell your parents about this" from multiple school officials as a student, I as a parent start being very concerned about whether or not government employees who are in a position to council students are generally going to follow the procedure, and actually encourage children to keep their parents in the loop when making serious decisions.
