Its the kind of scenario that makes every parent cringe: a California preschool is shutting down as allegations surface that two 5-year-old girls were performing fellatio on fellow classmates while teachers turned a blind eye.

I know that those who have homosexual children still love them...and so do those whose children are bi-polar or schizophrenic.
But just because you love them doesn't make their disease OKAY.

Fix it...don't hide it!

As it ought to be.
