Let these girls lead normal lives...please?

That would be entirely unPC and must not be allowed.

"We see every combination," said Clarence Bagby, a board member with the local chapter of Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays.

I'm sure you do. And I'm sure you condone it, too!!

Isn't it strange that when homosexual couples want to adopt children it is touted that it is not a problem, but here they say:"While it may be unusual for such a dispute to reach the courthouse, gay-rights activists say family conflicts over sexuality issues are common.

Homosexual's lie like Palestinians...

[The_Reader_David]

No, homosexuals lie lie Muslims. I know honest, good Christian Palestinians who are living in the U.S. to get away from both their Muslim compatriots and the Israelis.

[The_Reader_David]

lie lie = lie like

Imagine the outpouring of PC support amd sympathy for these girls if they had left because their mother was a chain smoker.

PFLAG meets in a church???
The devil is having some big fun.

PFLAG meets in a church???

Probably one that's part of that [un]Holy Laughter movement.

Quick! Someone call Rosie!!

[BibChr]

Good catch.

[Red Jones]

wow, but wait a minute, the girls left their mom's house and are now living with uncle and aunt. Why don't the police go and get the kids from the uncle's house and return them to mom's house? Mom is legal guardian. Kids are now allowed to leave their parents' house and stay somewhere else when they have a dispute?

...So very true my friend...Lord have mercy!

1. CPS spokeswoman Estella Olguin confirmed the counseling but said it was only for parental issues and not concerning homosexuality

2. Olguin said an investigation showed there was no abuse or neglect, including no inappropriate sexual behavior happening in front of the children.

But then: In a petition filed July 17 in 310th state District Court, the girls allege their mother had numerous homosexual relationships and brought sexual partners into the home

Ms. Olguin of Child Protective Services clearly has an agenda that is pro-gay and anti-church and has little to do with the welfare of the children.

[I still care]

I'm just guessing, but the ages of the girls probably have some impact here. They are 16 and 17, which is a lot different than if they were, say, 11 and 12. In one year at least one will be a legal adult. If I were this mother I would mend fences, and fast, because they will disappear forever on her.

Worse yet, imagine if the parents were Constitutionalists (gasp!) and owned firearms (double gasp!)..

"Green said she "no longer practices that lifestyle"..."

For many homosexuality is a choice.

"... and is receiving counseling from CPS."

How is CPS qualified to counsel her about her choice of practicing a homosexual lifestyle? She will need other counseling to be fully healed. Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays (PFOX) can help.
