Parents! We Don’t Need No Stinking Parents!

Get thee to a private school or just keep your children home. File this story as reason #3,493 to get your family out of public schools.

World Net Daily did a story on the San Francisco School District’s launching of a website that says “April is Gay Pride Celebration!” in an attempt to make schools “safer” for gays, bisexuals, and transgenders, as well as “questioning youth.”

According to WND, the site has testimonials from school officials on how they’re making their schools more friendly to LGBTQ students. Susan, a school nurse from Burton High School, for example, explains the steps her school is taking:

“Probably the most fun activity that we’ve organized and I think the most informative for the students is what we call the Rainbow Café,” writes Susan. “One week during Gay Pride Month … we have a room that’s set aside and there are snacks. The [Gay-Straight Alliance] has usually chosen a topic, and each day at lunch there’s a speaker on a different topic. So Monday might be gays in the military, Tuesday might be gay parents, the next day might be gays and religion, and then it might be legislating civil rights for gays. We usually culminate the week with a Day of Silence. We’ve asked teachers to give extra credit to allow kids to come who wouldn’t normally come. But because they get extra credit, kids who wouldn’t be exposed to this kind of programming will be taught to think about it.

So they’re offering kids free eats and extra credit in order to expose them to their gay agenda. I’d bet these are the same folks who are against trans-fats in every other case but here’s they’re willing to hook up Ring-Dings to the I.V.’s in order to get the kids to listen to “Heather has Two Mommies and a Questioning Pet.”

But then Susan really puts the icing on the cake when she says that, of course, there are some challenges to their attempts at indoctrination.

“When asked about challenges she faces in creating an “equally safe, equally loving, equally equal environment” in schools, Susan responded, “I think any time you talk about youth relative to sexuality, and sexual behaviors, there are barriers to overcome – whether they’re personal barriers or family barriers or whether they are barriers within the schools. … But I don’t think they’re insurmountable. We always manage to either cross over them or get around them.”

So family objections to such things just need to be gotten around. But that can be difficult so many times they just don’t tell the parents.

In fact, the school district then comes right out and says it in its parental notification section,

“A discussion about gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and questioning people does not constitute a discussion about human sexuality or family life education and does NOT require parent notification according to the California Education Code.”

Specifically, the website states, parents do not need to be notified of homosexual parents talking to students about their careers, intervention in name-calling incidents that violate the anti-slur policy, reading books that highlight LGBTQ characters or celebrating Diversity Days or Gay Pride Month at school.

Public schools clearly see parents as impediments to indoctrination. You are something to be “gotten around” while they busily mold the mind of your children. Never mind, that it’s your child and your taxpayer money paying their salaries. Many of these school officials have nothing but contempt for you and your beliefs.

Remember always that to our cultural elite, whether or not you are in the majority, you are an anti-social backwards thinking impediment to a “New America.” If you doubt it, check out the website or just watch a Miss America pageant.
