After hearing this story, I would not allow my kids to attend school in Massachusetts until I had had a long and productive conversation with their principal and teachers.    <\/p>\n<p>The only beneficiaries of this determination to indoctrinate children about homosexuality will be the private schools, as more religious parents decide they&#8217;ll forego other luxuries, like family vactions, in order to educate their kids in schools committed to teaching the truth.   Unfortunately, many parents will be too poor to pull their kids from public schools, no matter how many lies their children are taught.   This will greatly increase the number of kids questioning, experimenting, and as a result, suffering, with their sexuality.  <\/p>\n<p>Fortunately for us, large majorities of Americans oppose gay marriage.  Because gay activists know a frog jumps from boiling water, they are trying to be careful not to raise the water&#8217;s temperature too quickly.   It is therefore important for those of us who have witnessed the rising temperature to point it out to others.   Hopefully we can persuade society to confront what they know to be wrong before great numbers of kids are hurt.  <\/p>\n<p>Please email <a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/features\/feature.php?wfId=3915906\">this story<\/a> to your friends and family who know the truth. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just a few months ago, defenders of traditional marriage predicted that should government recognize gay marriages, public schools would soon give equal treatment to homosexuality in sex education classes.
