In response to parents who were uncomfortable with the existing sex ed curriculum, one school district in Minnesota created a two-track program, offering an abstinence-only class alongside the traditional one, which covers contraception, abortion, homosexuality, and other hot topics. Parents could enroll their child in the class of their choice. The tale of how conflicts among members of the Osseo (Minn.) Human Sexuality Curriculum Advisory Committee led to divisions in the district's high schools and the community at large is told in "The Sex-Ed Divide," by Sharon Lerner, The American Prospect, special supplement, Fall 2001, http://www.prospect.org/print/V12/17/lerner-s.html
