'Confidentiality' promise requires students 'not to tell their parents'


Officials at Deerfield High School in Deerfield, Ill., have ordered their 14-year-old freshman class into a "gay" indoctrination seminar, after having them sign a confidentiality agreement promising not to tell their parents.

"This is unbelievable," said Matt Barber, policy director for cultural issues for Concerned Women for America. "It's not enough that students at Deerfield High are being exposed to improper and offensive material relative to unhealthy and high-risk homosexual behavior, but they've essentially been told by teachers to lie to their parents about it."

In what CWA called a "shocking and brazen act of government abuse of parental rights," the school's officials required the 14-year-olds to attend a "Gay Straight Alliance Network" panel discussion led by "gay" and "lesbian" upperclassmen during a "freshman advisory" class which "secretively featured inappropriate discussions of a sexual nature in promotion of high-risk homosexual behaviors."

"This goes to the heart of the homosexual agenda," Barber said. "The professional propagandists in the 'gay-rights' lobby know the method all too well. If you can maintain control of undeveloped and impressionable youth and spoon-feed them misinformation, lies and half-truths about dangerous, disordered and extremely risky behaviors, then you can control the future and ensure that those behaviors are not only fully accepted, but celebrated."

He said not only is forcing students to be exposed to the pro-homosexual propaganda bad enough, but then school officials further required that students sign the "confidentiality agreement" through which they promised not to tell anyone – including their own parents – about the seminar.

Barber said that also aligns with the goals of the disinformation campaign being run by those in the pro-homosexual camp. "That's what homosexual activists from GSA are attempting to do, and that's what DHS is clearly up to as well."

The situation, according to district Supt. George Fornero, was partly "a mistake."

He told CWA, the nation's largest public policy women's organization, that requiring children to sign the confidentiality agreement wasn't right and the district would be honest with parents in the future about such seminars. But CWA noted that even after the district was caught, parents still were being told they were not welcome to be at the "freshman advisory" and they were not allowed to have access to materials used in compiling the activist curriculum.

Barber noted the damage being done is significant.

"Until DHS and other government schools across the country are made to stop promoting the homosexual agenda, kids will continue to be exposed to – and encouraged to participate in – a lifestyle that places them at high risk for life-threatening disease, depression and spiritual despair," he said.

It's not the first situation where WND has reported on schools teaching homosexuality to children.

In Massachusetts after a school repeatedly advocated for the homosexual lifestyle to students in elementary grades, several parents sued, only to have the federal judge order the "gay" agenda taught to the Christians.

The conclusion from U.S. District Judge Mark L. Wolf found that it is reasonable, indeed there is an obligation, for public schools to teach young children to accept and endorse homosexuality.

Wolf essentially adopted the reasoning in a brief submitted by a number of homosexual-advocacy groups, who said "the rights of religious freedom and parental control over the upbringing of children … would undermine teaching and learning…"

David and Tonia Parker and Joseph and Robin Wirthlin, who have children of school age in Lexington, Mass., brought the lawsuit. They alleged district officials and staff at Estabrook Elementary School violated state law and civil rights by indoctrinating their children about a lifestyle they, as Christians, teach is immoral.

"Wolf's ruling is every parent's nightmare. It goes to extraordinary lengths to legitimize and reinforce the 'right' (and even the duty) of schools to normalize homosexual behavior to even the youngest of children," said a statement from the pro-family group Mass Resistance.

An appeal of that decision is pending.

The judge concluded that even allowing Christians to withdraw their children from classes or portions of classes where their religious beliefs were being violated wasn't a reasonable expectation.

"An exodus from class when issues of homosexuality or same-sex marriage are to be discussed could send the message that gays, lesbians, and the children of same-sex parents are inferior and, therefore, have a damaging effect on those students," he opined.

"Under the Constitution public schools are entitled to teach anything that is reasonably related to the goals of preparing students to become engaged and productive citizens in our democracy," the judge wrote. "Diversity is a hallmark of our nation. It is increasingly evident that our diversity includes differences in sexual orientation."

And, he said, since history "includes instances of … official discrimination against gays and lesbians … it is reasonable for public educators to teach elementary school students … different sexual orientations."

If they disagree, "the Parkers and Wirthlins may send their children to a private school …[or] may also educate their children at home," the judge said.

I'd love to see any other sources to see if there is another side to this story. But if the story is accurate, it's completely outrageous.

Agree that this kind of school behavior is absolutely outrageous and those involved with it need to be summarily fired. Think of what other crap your kids could be taught if such underhandedness were to flourish.

14 year olds can't legally sign a contract or "confidentiality agreement". This illegal attempt to hide this class from the parents only highlights the fact that the school knew what they were doing was wrong.

It's time this country realized that it can discriminate against "sexual orientation". It's also time to get rid of some liberal judges. At the very least we need to get school choice passed so parents can use their tax dollars to send their children to the school of their choice. Then if this nonsense continued, the parents would be yanking their kids out of those disturbed schools so fast their heads head would spin.
 
I saw the link and then I saw "indoctrination classes" and just kinda stopped reading. It's obviously a biased story from the get-go.

But everyone here already knows my thoughts and opinions on this matter, so I'm going to keep quiet this go-around.

Will you please put your tin-foil hat back on?

Will you please actually contribute to the thread rather than resorting to personal attacks?

I specifically said if anyone other sources which might provide the other side of the story to get a fuller picture please do so. So your comment, regardless of whether it was to Eagle or I (you weren't exactly clear) are completely unwarranted. If you have relevant information to dispute this story please share it.

Biased or not, I haven't found any other information on it yet and until we do its the only source we have.

Simply because something is biased doesn't mean it isn't useful to get information.

There're all sorts of sources out there with it!

But, there is another story from yesterday about the group that is pushing this sky-is-falling-and-will-make-your-kids-gay propaganda in Deerfield:

Needless to say, they didn't have any comment for the non-right-wing press.

But, here's a little information on who's driving this "story":

Ah... after doing some research it's all coming together now...

Ya see, Lora Sue Hauser is the "leader" of North Shore Student Advocacy... but, she is also a spokeswoman for the "Illinois Family Institute"... which is... surprise surprise, self-described as: "While we are financially independent, our efforts are reinforced by our working partnership with Focus on the Family, the Family Research Council, and Alliance Defense Fund as well as similar nationally and state-based organizations across the United States."

And, don't forget, one of their goals:

Fix Broken Homos!

HOMOSEXUAL/BISEXUAL/'TRANSGENDER' AGENDA ● We oppose efforts to include "sexual orientation" as a category for preferential status under civil rights statutes at the federal, state and local levels. We support a full repeal of SB 3186, a law which adds "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" to Illinois' Human Rights Act. We believe such laws invariably erode the freedom of people of faith and others who oppose homosexuality and normalizing gender confusion ("transgenderism") as a matter of conscience. We support laws to protect adoptive and foster children from being placed in homosexual households, and stand united with those private organizations, such as the Boy Scouts of America and the Salvation Army, that wish to live by their own moral creed, including the belief that homosexual behavior is against God's will. We reject all hatred toward and abuse of homosexuals as unchristian, knowing as we do that it is through the love and forgiveness of Christ that many men and women who once practiced homosexuality are now living lives in line with God's natural created order. As sinners ourselves, we must never be arrogant toward others struggling with various sins and temptations--but must point them toward redemption and wholeness through the atoning work of our risen Savior, Jesus Christ, on the cross.





OK, now that we know who the players are... is it any surprise that there is so much indignation that there might be a class somewhere where they don't teach homosecuality as an abomination?

"In classrooms this week, panel sessions at Deerfield High School geared toward helping students adjust to high school will include speakers from a school club, Straight and Gay Alliance, who will openly talk about topics such as being bullied for being gay and being a friend of a homosexual person.

The class is mandatory, but parents can choose to remove their child on days the lessons concern them, school officials said. Some parents are pulling their children out of the program, The Chicago Tribune reported.

The Chicago Tribune reported that the school sees the panel as a way to ease the transition into high school. The topic of homosexuality is only one of many subjects covered in the orientation; others include study habits, and becoming getting familiar with the school and its resources."

Nowhere in the Fox News article did it say that kids were forced to sign a confidentiality agreement behind their parents back. It says that parents have the option of pulling their kids out during the days when the homosexuality topic is discussed. It's also not a gay indoctrination, it's a freshman orientation. There are major discrepencies between the World Net Daily article and the Fox News Article.
