There was an old saying about sex education in schools. The gist was that the kids who NEEDED to be taught that in schools were the ones who weren't getting the education form the parents - who were most likely to be the parents objecting to the school teaching it.

I certainly see the problem in trying to figure out "who decides" when it's time for someone else (not necessarily the state - could be a relative) takes over.
