[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is most offensive in this situation is that they're pushing their agenda on you and your kid. Schools- of every level- need to stop doing this. I am  in 100% support of gay rights, but don't expect me or my kid to dress up in rainbows just to make your school look good.[/quote]

I'm same as you - LGBT is fine by me, but all this liberal political hogwash in schools needs to stop.[/quote]

The suicide rate of LGBT teens is 4 times greater than non-LGBT teens. So yes, LGBT teens need to know that people support them. [/quote]
So preschoolers wearing rainbows will help gay teens? What about all the other people who commit suicide?

I don't actually think the 4 year old has a clue, but a teacher may be 20 something and struggling with LGBT issues or a teen may  have a 4 year old sibling in the preschool and I do believe having the parents dress their kids in rainbows will help these people know they are loved. The suicide rate is highest for 12-25.

I think we need better mental health care for "others", also schools have made huge strides with bullying to help prevent "other people" from committing suicide. Also, kids with learning disabilities are getting better support (another cohort that commits suicide at a higher rate).  I don't think there is a one prong approach, I think there needs to be many things done to help those struggling with thought that they are not loved  or valued.    [/quote]
