@bot @Arcana @hidden @animeirl children aren't chattel. Parents denying them knowledge about basic shit like "gay people exist" is a massive disservice to them, especially if the children themselves are gay. That's not something we should promote.

Part of the point of public education is ostensibly to teach kids things. it's not just for producing skilled labor. If parents disagree with kids learning that the moon landings are real when learning astronomy, or that homosexuality is naturally occurring throughout the animal kingdom in biology or health, the parents are in the wrong and the state doesn't have to sanction depriving kids of basic information like this.
