You might want to explore why parents have a right to control what their kids learn and think. If you have the right to teach your kid anything you want aren't you doing them a disservice? If you believe that the earth is 6000 years old, whites are the master race and all other races are inferior, do you feel your kids will be well served by not hearing alternative views? Isn't it better to expose your kids to a wide variety of views and allow them to develop their minds?
Apparently you don't have confidence in the strength of your own beliefs if you think exposure to alternative beliefs might sway your kids away from the echo chamber you have created for them...
I didn't say control, I said pass on, children learn all through out life, they will develop their own opinions as they grow, school are there to educate not to push an opinion. Apparently you don't comprehend very well.

Oh, I understand more than you think. You mean you believe you need to get to them first and instill your prejudices and biases before they are exposed to the real world. Making certain that they carry on your beliefs. Time people like you expand your horizons, you are not any better than anyone else on this planet.
If you want to teach your kid to hate, knock yourself out, it's a fee country.
That was not the question.
The question is do you believe it is normal or abnormal to be homosexual.
If your child had dyslexia, would you just not do anything to correct it and tell them that it is just a normal thing to have dyslexia? Or would you try to fix it. It has nothing to do with if you would teach them to hate people with dyslexia.
That is the question being asked with homosexuality.
Disagreement and intolerance are two different things...
Oh please. How is "disagreeing" with me - and I'm not talking about "disagreeing" with me in the sense of disagreeing with a position I hold, or an opinion I have - but actually "disagreeing" with ME: "disagreeing" with my existence, my humanity, the core component of my being that dictates how I form intimate relationships with other human beings - not hate?
Telling a gay person you "disagree" with homosexuality is similar to telling a black person you "disagree" with black skin.
