“Starting last fall, some seventh grade health classes in the Prince George’s County Public Schools system were shown an anti-bullying video that promoted gay-to-straight therapy as an option for LGBTQ youth.”
The video has since been pulled from the curriculum, but when asked why, the school system replied, “We pulled the video because there was too much focus on alternative lifestyles.”
Yikes.
