In Our Schools - Normalizing Same-Sex Unions
Do children really need this?...
At CNSnews.com, Adam Brickly reports:
"The Alameda, Calif., public schools are adopting a curriculum that will require first graders to read literature that equates same-sex unions with a family made up of a mother, father and child.
Parents will not be allowed to opt their first graders out of the curriculum.
Members of the Alameda United School District (AUSD) school board voted 3 to 2 last week to implement the 'Safe Schools' curriculum, which supporters say is aimed at stopping anti-homosexual bullying in schools.
The program includes a between one and four lessons each year between grades 1 and 5 to introduce students to 'LGBT' (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transsexual) issues."
