I can't and wouldn't teach your kid to be gay. I can't get him to write his fucking name at the top of the page.
That’s generally not what they’re really concerned about. “I don’t want teachers teaching my children to be gay” is just code for, “I don’t want teachers teaching my children that it’s ok to be gay.”
Or just tolerating them in front of their kid. In fact, they'd probably prefer the teacher teach Timmy to hate like mom and dad do.
I hate that more people don't understand this. It leads to a bunch of discussion and anxiety about nothing at all.
Rough day, huh?
Parents can be overprotective, (I.e. become shitty parents) and you can't really do anything about that, except hoping that the universe educate them.
