From the article: "This is the last place a parent would expect their children to be confronted with topics that are too complicated for them to understand."
Really? I'd say the kids understand better than you. If you didn't enforce your bigotry on them, they wouldn't think twice about it. "Oh look, that kid has two mommies! I bet they get twice the kisses on their boo boos" or something of that sort. Instead, you decide that, because you think it's wrong, your kids should think the same way. This is the same organization that tried to ban violent video games due to gun violence. Forget the fact that people have been killing and even SHOOTING each other for a LONG time before video games came along. These people make me sick.
One Million Moms exists to "clean up today's media". Well, I have something to tell you - all "one million" of you - if you don't like what your kids are watching, if you don't like what your kids are listening to, if you don't like the video games your kids are playing, there's something you can do about it... I know this sounds crazy, but bear with me... YOU CAN TURN IT OFF. They're YOUR kids. You want to raise them to be ignorant like you? Go ahead. But know this, the other kids that your actions affect? They aren't yours, so get over it. Disney shouldn't change for you, the media shouldn't change for you. If you can't be accepting of others then you can stay that way, but stop crippling your kids with your biases. If you teach your kids to think like you, then all you're doing is creating more hate.
I want to make something clear - I respect their right to be offended, and their right to voice their opinions. This is just me using MY right to do the same.
If you want to contact Disney, whether in support or against this decision, then I believe you can contact them here: support@disneyonline.com
If you want to contact One Million Moms, here is a link to their website: http://onemillionmoms.com/
You can "report an issue" on their front page. Which I think I may just do. I found some trash on the internet... It's their website.
