The right-wing publication
LifeSite News seems to be all up in arms over the fact that the American Academy of Pediatrics has said that pediatricians should recognize that they treat children in same-sex households and thus should do more to encourage a more accepting environment.
According to the AAP, homosexuality “should not be considered
abnormal.” While the organization acknowledges that “LGBTQ” teens as a
whole engage in riskier behaviors and report higher rates of substance
abuse, promiscuity, depression, self-harm, and even teen pregnancy, they
blame that on “the presence of stigma from homophobia and
heterosexism,” which “often leads to psychological distress [and] an
increase in risk behaviors.”
As a result, the organization says doctors should make every effort to eliminate heterosexism in their practices.
Heterosexism is defined as “the societal expectation that
heterosexuality is the expected norm and that, somehow, LGBTQ
individuals are abnormal.” The AAP calls heterosexism “insidious and
damaging.”
. . . Additionally, the AAP recommends pediatricians take an active role in
promoting acceptance of homosexual behavior in their schools and
communities.
“Pediatricians should support or create gay-straight alliances at
schools,” the guidelines state, “and support the development and
enforcement of zero-tolerance policies for homophobic teasing, bullying,
harassment, and violence.”
The group also recommends physicians keep a list of homosexual advocacy
groups and their websites handy to give to children who express
confusion about their sexuality.
The organization recommends doctors display brochures and images
featuring same-sex couples as well as straight ones, and affix rainbow
decals throughout their offices to show they embrace homosexuality.
Believe it or not, other than a wannabe salacious headline,
Pediatricians should decorate office with pictures of gay couples: Medical group, the article doesn't condemn the AAP for this very logical and seemingly uncontroversial step of treating all of their patients equally.
Lifesite News leaves those leaving comments to do the dirty work:
SO TRUE! What is going on in America, dear God save them! If a child
says she/he is having sex, the doctor should ask with a male or female
or both???? WHAT IS THIS??? I pray that this homosexual lifestyle does
not set root in my country. I and my family will NOT tolerate it.
Displaying pictures of dismembered infants would be honest, and that's
not allowed. Why not have posters on the wall explaining the HIV
infection rate among gay men as compared to heterosexual couples. why
not also explain about the short term open relationships, promiscuity
and sexual addiction that is rampant in homosexual couples!
This will certainly go a long way in disarming children when they are
approached by a homosexual. If sodomy is normal, what's abnormal?
This is their master plan, to capture as many children as possible for
their cause. If you are a parent and are not actively combating this
recruitment, you are risking the sacrifice of your child on their
homosexual altar.
I guess when you have ready made sheep, you can put anything in front of them to tear apart.
