A bottle in one hand; porn in the other
Find me a 7 or 8-year-old with a smartphone who hasn’t “accidentally” stumbled upon porn. Find me a 9-year-old who doesn’t know what Cardi B means by wet ass pussy?

Students who have feelings related to lesbianism, homosexuality, bisexuality, and transgenderism need to be able to discuss them with someone. Their parents are the ones they should be able to talk about these feelings and issues with, you say? What if their parents have made it clear that any lifestyle other than being straight is inferior…or is against their religion?
