Legislative committee consideration of a sex education measure included very diverse opinions about its content. The bill requires public school districts, as part of a health curriculum, to include instruction on human growth and development. That could involve the class showing of a three-minute computer-generated video on conception and fetal growth. GOP Committee Chair Kim Moser said the “Baby Olivia” video shown to lawmakers is not mandated in the bill.
“No one is saying it needs to be this one. This doesn’t really opine religiosity or I mean it really is just a very general starting point for a conversation with kids,” said Moser.
