HERE'S WHAT VT DEPT OF ED WANTS PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS TO USE FOR TEACHING SEXUAL HEALTH TO CHILDREN:

If you love your children, you better check out what's going on in your child's local public school. It may be necessary to make sacrifices to protect your children's health, safety, innocense and very lives by seceding from the public schools. You may not be able to stem the flow of outrages & dangers at the local public school. You may be faced with having to home school or sending your children to a private - secular or religious - school. It may not be easy. But our children are precious. Parents, grandparents, teachers, taxpayers, concerned citizens - beware!

Think the Catholic Church has a problem? Wait until the abuse in government schools breaks wide open. It will be a bloodbath.

[DoughtyOne]

A word comes to mind. It's obsessed! Do these teachers think of anything other than gay sex?

Okay, I have to admit that I find this topic interesting.  Even at my age I didn't know about lesbian men.

[RWBaral]

Yes, public school teachers do think about things other that sex, gay sex, etc. Such as? Indoctrination. Keeping their jobs at all costs. Adding to their pensions. Lying to parents. Encouraging pain, suffering, disease and death by their silence or outright approval of sexual perversion. Telling parents "But you are the only one who has complained..."

[Restorer]

The story of a 13-year-old boy, his emerging sexuality and his realization that he is gay. Trevor describes what it feels like to know that you don't belong and that no one understands you.

Obviously, if you are confused and feel like you don't belong, then you must be gay.

The problem is that these feelings are the very definition of being adolescent. I have seldom seen more blatant recruiting publicly avowed.

[LarryLied]

Do these teachers think of anything other than gay sex?

"Michael" a 3rd grade teacher who posts on teachers.net/chatboard boasts that 75% of primary grade male teachers are, as he is, gay."Bill in Conn" heads the Gay/Straight outreach program in his school. Teachers.net is worth a look. Scary people. No need to register to post.

[DoughtyOne]

Sounds about right.

[DoughtyOne]

Thanks Larry. I'll put on my hip boots and venture over.

[Jimmy Valentine]

Somewhere, Ethan Allen is rolling over in his grave.

[thesearethetimes...]

Exactly!! It infuriates me to see young people taken advantage of at such a confusing time in their lives! "that no one understands you" is what darn near EVERY adolescent has felt since the dawn of time!

Here's a Note to Activists:

Want to do something? Go here:

Ignorance Making You Ill? Cure It!

for links, tools, & instructions about how to contact a pile of different people, and how to send a link to this story right here ( or anywhere else ) to a "mass email" using Outlook Express.

And a personal note? The schools have no dam' business teaching this garbage, swill, & bilge to children. Parents and any decent adult ought to be outraged and demand an accounting.

HEATHER HAS TWO MOMMIES has been around for years. Check out your local library. Most library boards are run by liberals. Anyway, this whole thing is not about sexual harrassment (which is how they get this stuff into the schools), it's about recruitment to the gay/lesbian life style.

I'm glad my children have graduated. Of course, this garbage continues in college; but, at least they have somewhat of a choice there.

[Aquinasfan]

Wait until the abuse in government schools breaks wide open. It will be a bloodbath.

The teachers, administrators, school board, and taxpayers all have a financial interest in covering it up. It's a perfectly diabolical system.

I ran for school committee in the town where I grew up. I talked about a lot of things that NO ONE wanted to hear about, except the kids who were trapped in the system at the time.

[Alas]

One more good reason to homeschool!

Unless of course you would like to see your child turned into a public school slut, pervert, bisexual, disease ridden zomby.

[governsleastgovernsbest]

Yes indeed. Lesbian men. Men who are attracted . . . to women. Seen on the PC-left as a tragic problem, inevitably leading to sexual abuse, STDs, domestic violence, etc.

[tutstar]

bump the warning to parents to check out what's going on their kid's school. Try asking your child if there are any books they use in class but "do not" bring home. You might be surprised.
