"They say it's their job to expose children to the world's diversity."

Funny. I'm glad I don't have children and I want my property taxes back!

That is not the problem. Ash takes the most mild and makes it out as if the Parker's are completely intolerant hate-filled maniacs. The problem is that the school is DEMANDING that they be allowed to indoctrinate your children any damned way they want and if you don't like, pull your kids out of public school and homeschool or send them to a private school. If you cannot afford it, TOUGH!

This is why school vouchers are needed so desperately.

Nonsense. It is their job to teach them how to read, write and do math.

This statement exemplifies the major problem that exists in schools. Teachers don't even know what their job is.

I would treat them the same too, but I still don't think any book should have same-sex parents in them. That is indirectly promoting homosexuality.

On the other hand, I have to wonder what would happen if they came out with a FULL HOUSE book nowadays.

To me this "diversity" garbage is all about world population control.

Homosexuality and abortion can go a long way to prevent any future generations at all.

Is he the only parent who objects to this? I hate to be one who cuts and runs but in this case I would.

Does anyone ever wonder why Rush or Hannity never talk about this or similar circumstances? It's been going on for a while.

Not mine. But I do agree that the gay stuff does not belong in the schools.

I'm in no way harmed by their proximity, as far as I can tell. I believe this parent is overreacting.

So being appalled that their 5 year old was exposed to sexual deviance is "overreacting"?

Not promotion? The kids gets the message that there is having two male parents or having two female parents is the same thing as having a mother and a father Pure inculturation, since the child is below the age of reason, But I will tell you that as a former teacher and union rep that for the past ten years both union have been advancing the homosexual agenda. Ash is not being honest.

"True, no matter what, someone can get offended about something. I haven't had much problem with the parents of my students though. They know they can talk to me."

Involved, reasonable parents are a blessing to teachers... I once had a 16 year old female student who was spending more than half the school day in the boys bathroom.

When the principle called her mother in he was told that we had better stop trying to inhibit her daughter with our fascist gender roles or she would sue us back to the stone age.

It is Italian for showing that you are annoyed, angry or fed up.

They should send their kids to a private school or homeschool them because the public schools are pretty much ruined, especially in a place like Massachusetts. However, I would note that public schooling managed to survive a long time without homosexuality becoming an issue. It's an issue now only because the pervert lobby is using public education to indoctrinate children. Were children poorly educated until recent years when this pro-homosexual garbage became part of the curriculum?
