◼ Anti-bullying? No. Leftist indoctrination? Yes. - Weasel Zippers
Superintendent Paul Finch told The Poughkeepsie Journal the presentation was “focused on improving culture, relationships, communication and self-perceptions.”◼ Girls Told to Ask for Lesbian Kiss at School - CBN
Parents say their daughters were told to ask one another for a kiss and they say two girls were told to stand in front of the class and pretend they were lesbians on a date.
“She told me, ‘Mom we all get teased and picked on enough. Now I’m going to be called a lesbian because I had to ask another girl if I could kiss her,’” parent, Mandy Coon, told reporters.
Coon says parents were given no warning about the presentation and there was no opportunity to opt-out. Both the school principal and the district superintendent are defending the workshops and advising they will schedule more.
“The school is overstepping its bounds in not notifying parents first and giving us the choice,” another parent said. “I thought it was very inappropriate. That kind of instruction is best left up to the parents.”
“I was absolutely furious — really furious,” a parent who asked to remain anonymous told reporter Todd Starnes, “These are just kids. I’m dumbfounded that they found this class was appropriate.”

It was an anti-bullying presentation, natch. And parents were not given the option to opt their children out. In fact, they weren’t even warned that this “workshop” was being given, according to parents. The superintendent claimed it was ”focused on improving culture, relationships, communication and self-perception.” Further, the workshop was reportedly organized with the help of Bard College students. Case closed.
