[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't want the discussion at school. If there is a gay family..I would like to direct the conversation and not have it interpreted by a teacher. This is very sensitive stuff and actually <b>why would you need to read a book about two men who raise a child in K? That is clearly pushing an agenda. </B>If there is a gay family in school so be it..a child has a right to a great education and should be treated fairly and I think families should treat other families fairly but teaching kids about gay families is over the top. It is not the school role to be the nanny..I am paying for education not advocacy of very very very very very small percentage of US families. I would say there are more families where mom decided to have a child because there are no good men around (not gay but single by choice) and I am guessing most schools would not be reading books about that in K.[/quote]

But...then, why read a book about a man and a woman raising a family? Doesn't every child deserve to have a chance to see their experience reflected in the class? [/quote]
