Condoms in Elementary School

The latest policy innovation from Provincetown, a well-known gay and lesbian mecca: Schools can now legally pass out condoms to first graders without so much as notifying parents.

As a reaction to the HIV crisis, I understand why condoms are important to the Provincetown school board, which voted unanimously to pass these new guidelines. But why are they trying to subvert parental authority in order to sexualize kids as young as six?
