The following came in an April 2 email form SaveCalifornia.com.
If you have children in K-12 government schools, in California or another state, please keep them home and away from perverse indoctrination on Friday, April 19.
That’s the day of the so-called “Day of Silence,” where sexually confused students and teachers refuse to speak during the entire academic day. They’ll indoctrinate everybody else through handouts and chalkboard writings and videos and other propaganda tools. They’ll tell children to support and embrace the unnatural and unhealthy homosexual-bisexual-transsexual agenda and will say that anyone who’s against it is a “bigot.”
SaveCalifornia.com is leading the West Coast effort to urge parents to remove their children from government schools on Friday, April 19, the nationwide date of the “Day of Silence.”
Yet because the pro-homosexual-bisexual-transsexual “silence” could be permitted anytime April 15-19, SaveCalifornia.com is advising you to contact the school to ask if “silence” will be allowed on any date. No matter what, please keep your children home on April 19, to express your strong disapproval of the pro-perversity state school bureaucracy.
On Friday April 19, 2013 the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network is once again exploiting public schools to promote homosexuality and gender confusion as moral and normative through the political protest called the Day of Silence.
A coalition of pro-family groups is urging parents to keep their children home from school on the “Day of Silence,” if your school is allowing students to refuse to speak in class.

Why boycott when you can make lots of noise and let school kids make lots of noise?
Skai,
EXACTLY!
God bless, yours in Their Hearts,

Skai the reality is that kids with moral values are trained to submit and they don’t have the courage to do what you recommend…lets face the reality on that
Public schools and almost all colleges are dangerous to your children’s health.
So true ! Public schools have changed from educational institutions into
indoctrination centers for the far left of the political spectrum.
This is especially true in California, where the far left has control of both houses of the legislature and all state-wide elected offices. Take it back !
The philosophy of the education establishment is that they, the state, should decide how to raise your kids. Why should parents tolerate such an abominable situation to exist for one more day ?
Wow, I wonder why the schools didn’t support equality between the sexes when the struggle for women’s rights was on the agenda, since over 50% of the students and nearly 90% of the teachers and administrators of public schools were well-educated, underpaid women at the time? And why weren’t there days of silence for blacks back when the best of us called them Negroes out of respect for them, and the worst among us were exploiting them, raping them, insulting them, keeping them in their place, and even lynching them, when a goodly number of our fellow schoolchildren were black? Why is there no day of silence in our American schools in honor of, and in protest of the killing of, over 50 million American children slaughtered and slashed to death before, and sometimes even after, they were even born? They aren’t too loud, or too proud, like so many of our aggressively aggrieved homosexual and lesbian fellow citizens. Oh, they may have cried a little, but they were silenced forever in a matter of minutes by their fellow Americans. I’m in favor of a day of silence in honor of those innocents, once among us, who have been silenced forever by murdering fiends killing for money, long before we worry about other people’s sexual anguish, which should be a private matter. At least they have their lives! Think of the millions of Americans who have been murdered merely because they were inconvenient to their parents. Now that’s discrimination if I ever heard of it. Something must be done about this! It is an outrage. The loud and proud are being heard, but the silenced never will be. My heavens, how will we ever defend ourselves as a nation before the Lord on Judgment Day? Does the word American have to mean the same as murderers? Do we honor the feelings of homosexuals before we honor the rights of blacks, women, and murdered babies? What are we thinking?
Keep them home for ONE day? That’s a joke. The “perverse indoctrination” goes on daily. Take your kids away PERMANENTLY from the indoctrination. Yes, I know all the reasons why parents can’t/won’t home school, but the alternative is indoctrination. Daily. Not just for one day.
Well it does give a good message…so yes keep them home…but praise God that our charter school/partial home school does not practice these things..
I wouldn’t call their efforts a joke….
Per the CCC, it is the first responsibility of Parents to teach their own children.
Parents this is another excellent opportunity to talk to your children about MORTAL Sin, why it is a MORTAL sin, and that those who die in MORTAL sin without repenting will go to HELL for eternity.
Teach them about RELATIVISM in society – the lie and false belief that there is no right and no wrong.
YES MIKE you are correct but remember the influences are much more powerful……so these efforts are worth the try.
Only in a California public school could a teacher even think of not teaching for a whole day. I would call your local school district about this.
Parents need to talk with their kids, especially about homosexuality. As a teacher in a Catholic school, I heard many children repeat what their parents have said about gays and gay marriage. Almost all of them had no idea what the Church has to say on the subject. Teachers and administrators run away from the subject by using the phrase, “Parents are the prime educators of their children” which is true, but most of the parents don’t even know what the Church REALLY says. (Most are scandalized by the story of Lot and the angels, but it is a most effective story.)
Yes parents are teaching their kids but again let us not neglect the fact that outside sources are becoming more influential. Children who rebel are rebelling more now and even getting in worst situations because of the bad influences that are daily affecting them. I really hate it when people speak ignorant or when elders give advice with the denial of what is really happening.
The real problem is the politicians that permit laws that undermine parents and values. The agendas passing in schools and even in Catholic schools too. Many give advice but advice is not one size fits all….anything goes with society now….there is no more wrong or right…it’s what people decide to embrace but it is the government who is deciding what is politically correct. It is much tougher to be a parent today.
This makes me think of Germany in the 1930’s. It would have been good back then if schools had organized “Days of Silence” to protest the treatment of the Jews. It always bothered me that German Catholics didn’t do more to speak out against the treatment of the Jews in the 1930’s. Perhaps they didn’t want people to think that they weren’t “good” Germans. I think schools are to be commended today for being more proactive against bullying, even though it seems that a small minority of people are not happy with the anti-bullying drive. I find it amazing that some people consider speaking out against bullying to be pro-perversity.
Call their bluff. We know that this is nothing but pro-homosexuality propaganda. Christians should co-opt these events by demanding that all references to homosexuality, gender, race, whatever be stricken. Make it a generic anti-bullying campaign. But we Christians will always be losing these battles if we stay at home, comfortable in our living rooms but engaged by what’s going on. Get involved. Make allies with other Chtustian groups and be joyful that God has brought you to this place where you can defend his Kingdom.
Always remember that the biggest threst to people with SSA is not bullying. It’s not AIDS. People with SSA are victims first and foremost by the people who promote the gay ideology and by the actual experience with homosexuality. Never lose sight of that. And that this is spiritual warfare with real victims.
You are correct, the biggest threat to gay people isn’t bullying because most people today are against bullying and discrimination directed against gay people. Name calling, jokes about and violence directed at gay people is only increasing public sympathy for gay people. Mistreating people that are viewed by some as less than fully human is not defending God’s kingdom. Look at the example of Rev. Fred Phelps, he hasn’t made a lot of converts in his campaign of hate. His campaign of spiritual warfare has just made lots of converts for the other side. Christ’s message was one of acceptance and loving one’s neighbor as oneself.
PA, every single civilization that has embraced homosexuality as the norm has fallen — Persia, Greece, Rome — all of them fell because of moral corruption and the embrace of homo-sex. You keep saying Christ’s message was acceptance. Really? Did he command us to accept sin so as not offend?
Canisius, hasn’t every single civilization that did not embrace homosexuality as a norm ALSO fall? Isn;t the lesson that power only lasts so long. The Mayans, the Incans, the Russian Communists, the British Empire, the Egyptian empire, the Ottoman Empire. They’re all remnants of history too!
MarkF what an excellent leader you would be…..
Jesus’ message of acceptance is accepting Sinners but rejecting the sin. You accept the homosexual as a person but you do not accept a sinful perverted lustful homo sexual lifestyle
Here is a good reason to drop out of school and never attend College.
