Rockville, Maryland has become the epicenter of America’s culture wars. Parents in the area largely support a new sex education curriculum. National conservative religious / political groups oppose these local efforts to educate children about sexual issues. The fault lines are everywhere.

The program has been suspended by a court order until the curriculum can be further studied. Gazette.net reports on the reaction from parents
