Well gee.... as for being accepting versus tolerant being pro(motive), there's some pretty tricky ground here. After all, we're talking about children and their parents' rights. I believe it is parents' right to teach their child what they want and, equally, what they will allow others to teach their child. How can anyone dispute that right ?

Don't get caught up in the debate over whether or not what parents are teaching the child is right or wrong. That's secondary to their right to teach their own child without interference from others. Of course children should learn tolerence of others and their beliefs. I can "of course" ad infinitum. However, when I see "others" attempting to have a say in the parenting of children which are not their own, I see trouble.

A man was recently punished for hauling his ten year old boy into a shower to wake him up in the morning after he refused to get out of bed. Perhaps the age of enforced tolerance and interference has gone a little too far ?
