Warning: Gays To Invade PTA Meetings

Focus on the Family reports that – horror of horrors – gay parents are being encouraged to play an active role in their child’s school and education

Gay-activist group Family Pride has produced a pamphlet to guide homosexual parents in introducing themselves to their children's schools.

"Building Family Equality in the Classroom" suggests parents attend the first PTA meeting together and introduce themselves as a couple.

Barbara McPherson, legislative affairs coordinator for the California Family Council, told Family News in Focus such activism doesn't belong in school.

"It's a crossing of the line almost between information that helps people understand tolerance within their community versus an indoctrination," she said, "trying to get other people's children to think that same-sex partners are normal."

The pamphlet at issue has the audacity to suggest that gay parents meet the school principal, get involved in the PTA, understand the curricula, and volunteer to help out with the school’s clubs, groups or activities – which seems like something Focus on the Family would support

It's critically important today that parents be a part of public education in their community, especially if their children are attending a local public school.

This is only “critically important,” apparently, if said parents are not gay. 

If they are gay, then they had better not attend a PTA meeting or meet the principal unless they want to be accused of nefariously trying to indoctrinate other people’s children.
