[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never realized how homophobic my kid's middle school was until this letter came out.  I actually thought moving to Rockville was a liberal safe area.  It seems most of the parents are supportive in person, but here on this board - a lot of hate.  Maybe it is just the same conservative person?  [/quote]

I commented earlier. My child is gay, as are several other close family members. It is not clear from what was in the letter how serious this was and not is it clear it’s not an “in-joke” among kids who are gay themselves-I assure that type of thing happens. Of course it’s possible that it’s actually hate based and was an actual attempt to foment homophobic hate but that is not evident at all. Furthermore, the principal seems to be treating it as though they were actively recruiting to the club-if you want kids to sometimes think better of bad ideas and delete them you should distinguish in your response to actual events and aborted passing ideas.

you are troll and not from Wood - the LGBTQ community is horrified and scared for their kids.  Not thinking "oh a gay person in the school did this."  That is not this kid or their friends.  So please stop [/quote]

Of course, anyone who disagrees with you must be a troll.

You do realize these are KIDS? [b] Quite posible kids who come from religious homes, where their families do not condone a gay lifestyle.[/b]  They are trying to figure things out and reconcile what they hear at home with their own feelings.

Kids say stupid things.  We don’t need to call the police for it.  It is possible the kid who did this is gay.  Either way, there was truly no hate crime committed.  [/quote]

Then they should enroll in a religious school.  Public schools are secular and open for everyone.

And please stop saying kids say stupid things or this kid might be gay.  this was a slide presentation and sign up to join a homophobic club. It was well thought out.  All 3 kids involved have had prior issues.  [/quote]

You don’t understand the point of public school eh?[/quote]

So you are saying homophobic kids who are homophobic because of their parents should get free passes on creating hate clubs? I am not following [/quote]
