What is wrong with having curriculum that acknowledges that some families are headed by same gendered couples?

from their website:
Well, how exactly are you defining objective? Do you mean "both sides" are presented, because that's not necessarily objective. I wouldn't call a science class that gives equal time discussing a heliocentric model as it does a geocentric model as being objective. I'd call it a bad science class. One of these is objectively untrue.

Interestingly enough, they posted their objectives and you posted them as well. What of them is troubling to you?

From the article in the OP is doesn't appear that those topics were covered in the pre-K classes at this school. So there was no class time to teach those topics.

See how this works?


This is the one way street bigot PRog-Agressives have created.


Don't like it when they teach your 4 year old about homosexuality? suck it. leave. whatever.


on the other side, when you don't teach it, or you believe its a sin, you lose your job. you lose your life.




We are all free to do as the Bigot PRog-Agressives tell us we must do. We are free to think as the PRog-Agressives tell us to think


Its the new FREEDOM man!

Did anyone notice that the child is from an interracial family? Not too long ago that family would have been taboo to discuss in class as well.

I don't think that those things are appropriate for toddlers. They lost their minds.

You, obviously, are a pizz-poor Progressive if the only options you gave them were based on their genitals.

They talk about other family structures like mom and dad, step parents, aunts or grandparents as guardians, adopted parents. Why is it such a stretch to discuss two moms or two dads?

I'm guessing they're just indoctrinating them to one side of the issue and they don't read other books like 'Keep Your Wee-wee in the Boys Room'.

There are never really two moms or two dads.
