Parents' reaction [Independent.ie]

  • "Attitudes of boys to homosexuality are still in the dark ages."
  • "I am very often shocked with their attitudes to known homosexuals in the school -- they are afraid to be associated with them."
  • "Schools should stop young men from thinking that any person who is different or sensitive has to be gay."
  • "My son's bullying (in school) could have been avoided if the predominance towards the machismo was challenged."
  • "A geography teacher taking a religion class is not qualified to handle such issues."
  • "The practical way to talk to them (about sexual orientation) is to go off for a drive. At 60 miles per hour, they can't exactly jump out of the car."
