I understand the concern. However the question before the court is as follows:
Quote:

The question before us is simply whether the parents have a constitutional right to exclusive control over the introduction and flow of sexual information to their children.

The Ninth Circuit responded to the question. Counsel for the parents framed the question. The reasoning is sound and suported by opinions in the 1st, 2nd 3rd Appellate Districts in addition to the US Supreme Court.
Items like this demonstrate the lack of parental involvment children have and blame the public school system for their shortcommings. The survey was approved by the school district, including the specific questions. If the parents wanted to know the specific questions they could have contacted the school district after recieving the authorization form. They made no such inquiry. They signed the authorization form and now try to blame the school district. I blame the parents not the school.
Agreed, the Ninth Circuit is the most overturned circuit. I don't agree with everything they say, but on this one I find they made the correct decision when looking at the question they set out to decide.
But then again, I guess the study should never be performed because we, as adults, should not conduct any research into the paterns and behaviors of children who are inappropriately proposed by pediophiles. I guess we should just close our eyes and ears and pretend it doesn't happen.
Parents who want to have a say into exactly what it taught to their children should look into private schooling. The Consitution simply does not provide the fundamental right alleged by the parents. It is the way law works.
