Interesting how so many conservatives here have so little respect for states rights. They don't even live in California, yet they believe that they have a right to dictate how the state is run.
I was a bit beyond "Dick and Jane" when I was 6. And even Dick and Jane had "Mother and Father" characters--is that too sexually suggestive for you?
Well naming your kid an offensive name like "Dick" may get your kids taken away nowdays like what happend to little Adolph Hitler. Abuse don't ya know.
Nobody is dictating anything. This is an opinion forum and some are expressing their opinions. Don't like it don't read it.
If a state decided to teach that homosexuality is wrong and I criticized the state for it, many of these same conservatives would be screeching about states rights and telling me to shut up.
I don't want to make any of you who were involved in the law that brought this to the state unhappy but you surely do realize that the majority of people, even in California, aren't going to win anything from something like this.

Excuse me I live in California. Just because I respect the right for a state to determine its educational curriculum does not mean that I have to agree with it or not work to get rid of the parts that are worthless in my opinion. That's MY right as a Californian.

Wrong is the wrong word. Unnatural is a better description. I would tell you your position is wrong. I would never tell you what you can or cannot say.
