- I would be fully willing to respect your viewpoint if you were in any way
- willing to respect mine. As a taxpaying citizen who may or may not have
- children to send to school, I find that teaching my children views which
- are in direct conflict with my values a violation of respect for me.
- When you teach me how my values can be respected, I will be sure to follow
- your great example. Until that time, I don't believe you have any say in
- the matter. When any mention of heterosexuality is removed from schooling
- of children, I will be able to fully agree that any mention of homosexuality
- and bisexuality can be deleted also. I don't want my children to be
- indoctrinated into a belief system which is in such conflict with my values.

- Your children are just as likely to be homo/bisexual as anybody else's.
- Your attempts to control their sexuality will come to nothing in the end.
- Your children will be who they are whether you like it or not. Simply
- stated, you are just advocating making your lesbigay child's adolescence
- and adjustment in society that much more difficult by insisting that they
- should be indoctrinated into a homogeneous heterosexual society whether
- they are heterosexual or not.

- Respect breeds respect...
