Liberals: OK for Kindergarten to Read Gay Marriage Book

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 4, 2005 — The author of a conservative children’s book is condemning published reports that a public school in Lexington, Massachusetts, is forcing its kindergarten students to read a book promoting gay marriage. Katharine DeBrecht, the author of “Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed” (Kids Ahead; hardcover $15.95; ISBN 0976726904), criticized the school and asked why the very same liberals who have vocally attacked her book and called her a “Nazi” have been so silent in this case.

Reports recently surfaced that Estabrook School mandated that all kindergarteners read “Who’s in a Family,” a picture book that endorses the controversial topic of gay marriage, and invited gay parents to come into class to talk to the young children about the topic. The story came to light when David and Tonia Parker — two parents who ironically support gay marriage but do not want their son exposed to the topic — sought and failed to get their child exempted from the controversial curriculum. Their protests have not only fallen on deaf ears, but the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Massachusetts has intoned that it supports the school’s decision to have five-year-olds learn about homosexuality over their parents’ objections.

“This is yet another example of liberals bringing their ideological agenda into our classrooms,” says DeBrecht. “It is bad enough that a public school would seek to expose young children to an issue like gay marriage in the first place, but it is even more outrageous that they would ignore the request of parents who want to shield their kids from this topic.”

DeBrecht added that liberal children’s books have long been finding their way into our nation’s schools. Another pro-gay marriage book, “King & King,” has also turned up in many classrooms across America, as has the picture book “Rainbow Fish,” which tells a socialist story of a beautiful fish that is hectored into giving away his shiny scales.

“It’s ironic that liberals have so vehemently objected to parents acquiring my book, but we?ve heard no outcry against the Lexington kindergarten reading list,” notes DeBrecht, whose book tells the story of two brothers who open a lemonade stand only to have cartoon look-alikes of Hillary Clinton and Ted Kennedy tax away their profits and outlaw sugary drinks.

Left-wing blogger and pro-gay marriage pundit Andrew Sullivan said “Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed” invoked memories of Chinese dictator Mao Tse-Tung. Alan Colmes, co-host of Fox’s Hannity & Colmes, called DeBrecht’s book “brainwashing.” MSNBC host Ron Reagan mused that he should write his own kid?s book depicting conservatives as “hat[ing] black people.” The Democratic Underground website listed DeBrecht on their “Top 10 Conservative Idiots” list. And Daily Kos, the most trafficked left-wing blog, likened the book to Nazi propaganda.

“Apparently liberals are happy to see young kids exposed to political issues, just as long as it’s from a left-wing perspective,” adds DeBrecht, who is a mother of three. “And the ACLU has shown it is willing to even go one step further and fight to support a public school’s right to indoctrinate. Conservative parents have no choice but to make sure their kids have a chance to hear about traditional values, because it surely will not happen in school.”
