- I understand that you would like to be able to define gays as "immoral" for
- your children. The schools have to define some things as immoral, but,by
- and large, this should be limited to libertarian-style force-and-fraud
- issues.
-
- However, you have *no* right to insist that your children be sheltered from
- knowing that gays exist, form families, and raise happy children.
- This is especially because your children may become gay (hey -- if it
- is true for Phyllis Shlafley's son, it can be true for your kids). If
- that is so, then the school system has failed if sie has not been exposed
- to the notion that gays exist, and exist happily.
