According to the American Civil Liberties Union - ACLU - father-daughter dances should be banned because they are gender specific. That’s what happened in Cranston, Rhode Island. Superintendent of Cranston schools, Dr. Judith Lundsten issued a letter banning all "gender specific events" because of the ACLU complaint last May. This action also bans mother-son ball games.
Steve Brown, of the RI ACLU, told WPRO Morning News, "This is 2012 and public schools should not be in the business of fostering blatant gender stereotypes."
It is actions like this that drive a grumpy old man up the wall. What would happen if a bunch of people just said, "Hell no" we won’t knuckle under?
I keep hearing my friends say, "Our hope is that the Lord comes back soon."
He may be looking down and thinking, "I’m not going down there and get in that mess."
