I watched a show on that the other night, and Im not really sure what I think about it tbh...
They said that it was basically just that they wanted to teach about EQUALITY in school. Where as some children have a mummy and a daddy, others just have a mummy OR a daddy. They wanted to point out that it was just as likely that someone may have 2 mummies or 2 daddys instead and that was it. They said that they were not really talking about being gay or lesbian as such... Just that all children's home lives should be considered equal. I thought "Fair enough"...
Then it showed all the muslims protesting outside the schools, and admitly, while my first thought was "if you don't like it, go live somewhere else' when they explained what the problem was, it was that they didn't want the school 'promoting' gay and lesbian lifestyles to their children. They would explain Gay and Lesbians to their children themselves and they didn't want it done at school... And again, I thought "Fair enough"...
So then we see a lesson taking place in a school. A group of children are sat around a table with a teacher, talking about their families. One child pipes up that some children ONLY have one parent, a mummy or a daddy, then this particularly precocious child (Lets call her Mary) starts shouting over the other children in a 'know it all voice' and saying "Yes, yes, BUT there are Gay and Lesbian parents too, they are VERY important" and the teacher says 'Yes Mary, that's right, they ARE very important" and Mary looks pleased with herself...
But I though, Whoa! Hold on! They are NOT very important. They are EQUALLY important - Which I thought was supposed to be the point established at the start of the show - That they were being taught about EQUALITY...
So, that's why I thought "I don't know WHAT to think anymore"... Then the program ended, it had given me a headache, so I relaxed by soiling myself... But if it confused ME that much... THINK OF THE CHILDREN !!!!!!!
