Parlabane, I agree that it can be badly phrased, and that I’d want to be very careful about raising the point. It’s an important question, however, and I’d want to know the answer before sending in a deposit, or saying “no” to other schools.

I’d prefer to send our child to a school whose values we share. That’s the point of the exercise. One way to raise it would be to ask about the school’s health program, as such programs should discuss sex, drugs, alcohol, and other risky behavior.
