[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d be ok with it if they also had books about religion. Not sure why one is more appropriate than the other. MCPS can choose other books that are less controversial at that age. How about a book about kids with special needs? Or kids from different cultures? If kids see the LBGTQ as an option to build a community vs how they really feel about their sexuality, then they will sign up. I have 3 nieces (brother’s kids) who are all trans. Seems a little odd.[/quote] MCPS forbids even teaching about religious holidays in schools! My kid’s ES teachers were explicitly told that they could not read books about Christmas to the class. Or about Halloween or Thanksgiving (which made no sense to me, as neither are religious). No way they would put religious books on the reading list, especially if they are Christian in nature.
