5. A miserable story. Wouldn't sex education help?
Edited on Wed Dec-30-09 09:23 AM by Smarmie Doofus

This variety of sexual harassment... i.e. of kids who are perceived to be gay.... goes on everywhere.

The schools have dropped the ball on this one. Charter, or non-charter. Very few have sex-ed curricula for kids that age and almost NONE have curricula that teach that homosexuality is a normal, naturally-occurring phenomena in humans and other mammals... according to all the science that is available to us.

To *not* teach this science is the equivalent of perpetuating a lie... it seems to me.

And an *evil* lie at that.
