Silly news in your daily paper

This is being done by a government-funded charity focused on LGBT issues. Many find this development disturbing, especially when young children are involved. Some suggest that the charity should focus on educating parents instead. However, this topic has been deemed too political and the conversation has been closed.

More disturbing than crazy when someone so young is involved. The charity should be concerned with educating the parents on how to handle LGBT issues should their children ever need such guidance as they develop at their own pace.
