Day Care Group Pushes
Homosexuality and Cross-dressing for Children
Traditional Values Coalition

10-Apr-04 |
Parents who use day care centers
for their children may soon find that their children are going to be exposed
to explicit sexuality education, including such topics as homosexuality,
cross-dressing and family "diversity."
The Child Care Information Exchange (CCIE), (a group of day care
professionals based in Redmond, Washington), has recently published two
articles that encourage day care workers to begin discussing sexuality
issues with the children under their care.
The articles (are), "Developing Sexual Identity Through Play, Acceptance,
Curiosity, and Tolerance, " and "Healthy Sexuality Development in Young
Children"...
In "Healthy Sexuality Development" authors Kent
Chrisman and Donna Couchenour recommend that day care
educators must teach sexuality in a non-judgmental way and should fight
gender stereotyping by allowing boys and girls to wear opposite sex clothing
in "dramatic play centers." In addition, "Stories will be read

Government's New Mommy Wars,
by Carrie L. Lukas, Independent Women's forum, iwf.org, 7-Jun-04 |
Of course, women's advocates also push many
proposals that favor working moms. Government-funded day care, for example,
is a favorite of groups like the National Organization for Women. Yet while
the government can make day care seem "free" to working parents, it isn't
free to taxpayers.
Passing on those costs means families who have one spouse at home will have
a tougher time making ends meet. Stay-at-home-moms' service would be
devalued since they could be replaced by the "free" substitute: government
day-care centers. This proposal would push stay-at-home moms to seek formal
employment, and amounts to the government again taking a side in the mommy
wars.
