[dynachrome]

Is eight years old too young for a public school student to hear about homosexuality?

Yes

No

[dynachrome]

Why not teach them at conception?/major sarcasm.
Is this a stealth way for pedophiles to groom their prey?

[darkwing104]

hompsexuality?

[onyx]

YES!

[dynachrome]

Just shaking my head at this one.

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

[Redcloak]

It's strangely Freudian.

[Fierce Allegiance]

I don't want my kids to ever learn about hompsexuality

[TommyDale]

I don't think 8 years old is too young to teach a child that homosexuality is an abnormality. Teaching them it is a "normal alternative lifestyle" is wrong at any age.

[Gay State Conservative]

No school kid should be compelled to hear about homosexuality unless it's within the context of a discussion of psychiatric disorders.

[flashbunny]

I'mm uch older than 8 and I'm not sure even I want to learn about hompsexuality!

[digger48]

Is eight years old too young for a public school student to hear about homosexuality?

The question should be..."Should Public Schools be telling eight-year-olds about homosexuality?"

[dynachrome]

Type in haste, regret at leisure! Turned out kinda funny!

[A knight without armor]

Hompsexuality?


Why am I thinking unnatural things about Barney the Dinosaur?

[dynachrome]

"hompsexuality"

pro rudy forces have tampered with my post! lol

[pcottraux]

I think parents should teach their own kids about it, and the schools should back off.

[flashbunny]

don't fret, typos and strange posts usually become the most popular legends here.

Welcome to becoming part of freeper lore.

BJC, one for your list here.

"2 thubs up"
I am honored! LOL.

[dynachrome]

"Welcome to becoming part of freeper lore"

2nd time actually, but the first one didn't take. maybe this one will!

[zoomie81]

8 years old ? Teachers shouldn't be teaching sex of any kind at all. How about reading and math? In NYC some of the schools are teaching sex and hompsex as early as kindergarten!

[dynachrome]

"don't fret"
Never. I get a laugh outta other people's typing errors on FR. This one is better than the usual ones I make.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

My bunch already knew about hompsexuals, we'd wait until they clustered up in the restroom at the city yacht pier, toss a couple of lit cherry bombs through the door, and run like hell! We called them something else!

[pandoraou812]

I think you are right. Theres a movie that Garden State Equality wants shown. http://www.gardenstateequality.org/

I think the school doesn't need to teach my child about different family lifestyles or about being Gay. Some links for interested readers......

petition to sign against showing this film

http://www.gopetition.com/sign.php?petid=241 Steven Goldstein, the Chairman of the group Garden State Equality, says he's shocked that anyone would have a problem with this video, because it has won several awards and "it was shown at the White House in 2000- before educators and child advocates from across the country who praised the film." He adds if people don't feel comfortable with having their kids see That's a Family, "maybe New Jersey is not the right place for them."

This sounds like it may be related to this video in this thread:

Some South Jersey Parents Upset About Award-Winning Diversity Video Being Shown In School

See post 77 for the clip samples.

I think this material was shown in Massachusetts also.

bump :)

[word_warrior_bob]

I voted, apparently 28% of people are out of their minds.

To these people I have a question: Click

[pandoraou812]

Do you mean 28% of the people here?.... My child is 7 yrs old ...She does not need to see any movie this group promotes. I can very well explain diverse families to her . I don't need Garden State Equality Group Doing it for me nor her school. If that makes me out of my mind.. good. I don't take my child to the movies and she is still a child and watches movies meant for a child on DVD. I don't care what Gays do nor how they raise their own families. I don't bash them. However I will not have them telling me my child needs to be taught about homosexuality at her age or about their lifestyle and families.. I sure think Steven Goldstein has a lot of nerve telling people in NJ..... If people don't feel comfortable with having their kids see That's a Family, "maybe New Jersey is not the right place for them." What gives him the right to say that???

[Calpernia]

>>>>....apparently 28% of people are out of their minds.

???

Why Bob? You want Barak Obama as the Democratic nominee?

[LongElegantLegs]

My homp, my homp my homp my homp! /fergie

[toldyou]

"Type in haste, regret at leisure! Turned out kinda funny!"

Yes, and they are always so much fun until the mods correct them. Shhhhh...no one tell.....

[word_warrior_bob]

I don't understand either of your replies, when I voted 28% of the people in the poll said it was OK to teach homosexuality. I don't think anything about sex should be in public eductation, and homosexuality shouldn't even be up for debate to be taught about in high school, to talk about it to 7 year olds is sick.

Where did I say 28% of the people here??? How is saying homosexuality shouldn't be taught make me want Barack Obama UNLESS I read the pole wrong and the 72% were lunatics, someone tell me.

[baubau]

"I don't think 8 years old is too young to teach a child that homosexuality is an abnormality.

By teaching an eight-years-old or younger that homosexuality is abnormal, you'd be teaching the kid about homosexuality.

It's also NOT what the parents thinks about homosexuality, it's about what the child thinks and lies to the parents about what he thinks.

[pandoraou812]

I made the mistake WW Bob . I misunderstood what you were saying.
I thought you were talking about this darn movie and this issue of sex/ homosexuality taught in the schools.. I totally agree with what you posted to me... I am so sorry and I think the pics of your dogs are soooo cute. Please forgive me ~~Pandora~~

No it didn't. The results from this poll aren't up yet. Those results are from the previous poll.

Flashbunny is right. This thread could become series and hugh.

[TommyDale]

"By teaching an eight-years-old or younger that homosexuality is abnormal, you'd be teaching the kid about homosexuality."

Okay, so teaching an 8 year old in a very limited manner, teaching that it is abnormal, is fine with me.

"It's also NOT what the parents thinks about homosexuality, it's about what the child thinks and lies to the parents about what he thinks."

Actually, it is ALL about how the parents decide to teach their child. An 8 year old shouldn't be thinking about it, and certainly should not have been exposed to it in school. That is a family/parental responsibility.

[dynachrome]

You are on the poll ping list. Enjoy!

"Award-Winning Diversity Video"

Anything with a title like that, you know is going to be propaganda for the homosexual lobby.

[mikelets456]

Thanks for your support people. This is becoming a very serious problem in our area. The latest is the school board has let garden state equality now about the 2/13/07 board meeting's change in venue...However, the school board did not yet alert the tax paying citizens of this!!! This is a very corrupt school district. Keep spreading the word, this is not an easy fight. This is where we need to rely TOTALLY on GOD!!!

Funny, we started getting some "hate" mail and one line read "Keep your beliefs and religion out of this..."
Well to you oppositionists, thanks for mentioning that, because that's EXACTLY what we are fighting for...To keep YOUR believes out of my FAMILY and out of the schools!!!!

[pandoraou812]

How true.....I went and signed the petition to stop the movie from being shown....only 126 people signed it. If they wanted to show this later on in middle school fine. I talked to my daughter's teacher about it yesterday. She and I believe children who are young really don't notice who has 2 mommies or 2 daddy's unless it is pointed out to them. I am sick of Gay propaganda. I sat my child down and said there are different lifestyles and she knows that some families are different. I think the film clips I saw (what they chose to show you) weren't so bad. BUT I also think all they will do is make your child question why . At 7 yrs old children don't need to know about homosexuality. I don't care how much power Garden State Equality has ...I believe some issues need to be taught by the parents not the gay agenda people or the schools. I hope more people will sign the petition and as a PTA member if this what they are pushing I think I don't care to be a part of them anymore.
