Description:

Parents in Hopewell are outraged after they say controversial material was included on a quiz given to students at Carter G. Woodson Middle School.

A ‘shocked’ mother reached out to 8News after her 11-year-old daughter brought home an assignment from her Family and Consumer Science class.

The quiz asked students for proper labels of family members, but included questions such as, ‘what do you call the much younger and beautiful wife of an older, wealthy man?’ and ‘what do you call the much younger boyfriend of an older woman?’ which required answers ‘trophy wife’ and ‘boy toy.’

Tara Sample, whose 11-year-old daughter, Faith, brought home the assignment, said she is baffled that a teacher would think the questions were appropriate for middle school students.

“It was highly inappropriate for a teacher to bring this up in a family class, which was family and consumer science because it had nothing to do with the family unit that is outside the family unit
