Governments determine school curriculum across the country.

Parents can do what they want.

Lol if you support the law just say that. State sponsored erasure of gay people has nothing to do with school curriculum.

Parents have always been able to do what they want.

I say I did not support the law.

I also do not support disinformation

Barring a second grade teacher from being able to even mention their legal marriage is not about education, it's about erasure.

I mean, they can mention their marriage if they are straight, or read stories about straight characters, or do all sorts of things that reference heterosexual relationships and traditional gender roles, that's just conveniently not "discussing gender/sex."

Really, it's about protecting the parents, not the kids. They are afraid of having to discuss these issues with their kids because they are not mature enough for the conversation, not the kids.

Then what are all those parental committees for? Surely not because parents care about what their children are taught.
