I wouldn't necessarily want my children reading stories about adult relationships in any language. Why is it necessary to include stories about couples leaving each other for whatever reason? I am sure there are many age-appropriate stories that can be used as a learning example.
As already pointed out, this is all third-hand or worse, reported by people who don't like it. The base truth here is very likely to be something quite different and probably far less "activist" and "inappropriate" than has been presented.
Not that I can think of any reason kids shouldn't learn current terms and issues along with the drudgery of "My aunt's pen is on my uncle's table" and 1950s ideas of Mexican culture.
Good point. Explain which is which in relation to the Spanish teacher in the OP.
In this case, all of it.
There could be a factual discussion of the history of LGBTQ rights in parts of the Spanish speaking world, without focusing on relationships, which is inappropriate IMO for middle schoolers. The rainbow stickers and chanting are propaganda.
I understand teaching acceptance but she is a Spanish teacher. Having her students read Spanish stories about a woman leaving a man for another woman and 2 men getting married. What does this have to do with Spanish? Her young child is gay and she has become and advocate but I don’t think it needs to be in Spanish class. She passes out rainbows and has this kids chant LGBTQ. Now, if it were my child I would probably would just leave it alone. Times are more progressive and you have to go with it to a point. My cousin is sending emails to the school and asking her daughter be taken out of class when they have to read the Spanish passage about gay relationships etc....at first the principal said the teacher shouldn’t be doing this in the classroom but then changed her mind and said the students should have access to all curricular materials but it’s the parents right to not have their child participate. What are your thoughts? I just think this teacher doesn’t need to be pushing anything accept teaching Spanish.
If it's in Spanish I wouldn't see a problem. However, passing out rainbows and chanting LGBTQ sounds odd in any class.

This LGBTQ+-#69 agenda is being pushed through everywhere. It is social programming. Speak up against it to the teacher, parents, and administrators and stress the point that it is not relevant to the curriculum. Tell the teach to obsess over it on their own time and stop indoctrinating the children with this agenda.
