Seven years after "graduating" from homeschooling, I decide to take a look back at the most horrific textbook I used during my homeschool years. It's a set of two books: a health textbook and its companion book, "Life Management Under God (second edition". This post will focus on the latter of the two, which is aimed at grades 11-12. It was published by A Beka (they're baptist folk) in 2003. With only 103 pages, it scarred me in a way no other book has. So let me give you a glimpse into a 17 year old's health education.... Meeting new people or "I'm so glad that someone's finally teaching me how to properly socialize."  Dating platonically Sex isn't even called what it is. "Going all the way" is kept at a PG level throughout the book.  Even kissing has an air of shame to it.  There are also Dating Guidelines for both guys and girls. I'm only going to post the girls' side because it's what applied to me. Also because of the whole "dressing that way gets you raped" thing it's got going on.   Marriage is the best! There was an entire chapter ("unit") called Preparing For Marriage. It's my favorite part to reread, but since the passages in it are so long, I'm just posting my favorite short and sweet sections.   If you couldn't tell already, there are a lot of dramatic "anecdotes" written to probably instill terror in a sheltered teenage heart:  Bonus features yikes....  There are also random illustrations throughout both books. Here is my favorite from the Life Management book:  And, even though I haven't shown anything content-wise the health textbook itself, here's my favorite illustration from that:  So that's that. To this day, I'm still not sure what a penis is.

Did you ever look into becoming an emancipated minor when you were a child?

Was she one of those freaks that wore the long denim dresses too? Those stinky loving retards are the worst. Christians are loving loathsome.

Melissa was a huge oval office and wasn't missed by anybody is what the story forgets. She was just another soulless middle manager. Also, waaaaay picky about the dick she wanted.
