‘Mother’s Day’ too offensive? - Campus admin says newsletter reference must be “Parent’s Day”

One of our public Discussion Forum‘s prolific participants, Marc, comes upon articles like this all the time.  And it helps us all understand the liberal mind.

Tell me I’m wearing a tinfoil hat (just because I’m paranoid doesn’t mean there isn’t someone standing behind me with a knife)—but I believe the liberal media in Canada prints the viewpoints of the left as often as possible, in order to make it mainstream and commonplace and to eventually numb our minds to the liberal-left fundamentalism and extremism contained therein.  And the beauty is that once the toothpaste is out of the tube, it’s impossible to get it back in.  They know that and use it to their advantage as much as possible. 

In this case, the story was published at a decidedly non-liberal news web site, but much like here, it’s for the purpose of warning readers of what’s out there and to help people develop better awareness of liberals and the way they think—that we bring attention to it.

Check out Marc’s thread in the forums based on the article he found—and join in on the discussion.

Happy Parents Day!

A pre-school in Maryland has lost at least one customer after a student’s father working on the school’s newsletter was told he must change a “Happy Mother’s Day” greeting in the publication to “Happy Parent’s Day.”

…Becker said he was told: “We cannot say ‘Mother’s Day’ because we might exclude someone.”

“I was confused,” Becker told WorldNetDaily. “Everybody has a mother. Not everyone has a mother who is alive, but everyone has a mother.”

Becker then asked the administrator: “Who would we be offending on Mother’s Day?”

The response: “What about families with two fathers?”

Becker then asked about Father’s Day. He says he was told: “You can’t say ‘Father’s Day’ either.”

Retorted Becker: “You are insulting all the parents — the mothers, the fathers, the two-mother families, the two-father families — you’re insulting all of them.”

The administrator responded, according to Becker: “That’s our policy.”
