    The fact that a parent can just “pull” a kid from school with no good reason is just insane. It’s such fertile ground for all manners of child abuse.

      That’s insane… Do you think you know how to raise other people’s children better than they do?

        A drunken Orangutan would do a better job of raising this woman’s kids, she’s literally sabotaging their education because she’s mad someone made it harder for her to raise little bigots.

        Found the Nazi.

        Must be looking in a mirror.

          Look at this monkey grabbing a fish and saying, “hey I’m going to save you!” … while you put that fish safely up a tree.

          And you sound like you think parents rights to control their children should trump the child’s right to an education. Which is the sort of bullshit that religious child abusers think.

          Someone needs to check this user’s hard drives stat!

    The video in question: “Why is PRIDE in June?!?”

    The video was first published in 2017 on the Queer Kid Stuff channel, where host Lindz Amer discusses the origins of the gay rights movement and the history of civil rights activism. In the age-appropriate video, Amer speaks with a stuffed bear and recounts that Pride Month dates back to 1969. An animated segment depicts Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera standing up for queer rights during the Stonewall uprising in New York City.

    The video notably doesn’t call the famous protest a riot or delve into a debate about civil disobedience. It also never discusses sex. It does describe the nature of activism, including through education.

    “Just watching and learning from Queer Kid Stuff makes you an activist too,” Amer says in the video.

    But Varchetto said her 9-year-old returned home with what she considered an alarming takeaway: that the video said the child could identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, asexual, transgender, nonbinary or Two-Spirit.

    “I need parents to be informed of this,” she told the radio station. “Parents have the right to know what was taught to their kids. Whether or not you agree with it or disagree is irrelevant. You don’t get to teach and go rogue on subjects that are this controversial without providing parents a notice to opt out.”

    Yes, yes. How horrible for your child to be aware that LGBT+ people exist and it’s ok if they’re one as well.

        Better idea: let’s throw the parents and any assholes who view children as property into the deepest hole we can find and forget they ever existed!

          You’re property of the government…

          At least parents usually care more about their property(kiddos.)

          I think that’s an amazing idea and I encourage you to find any hole you can! The deepest one possible and jumping it yourself! Take nobody else with you! Just yourself!
