Apparently this happened over in the UK.

Do you think the school made the right decision?

Should children as young as 10 be learning about LGBT?

What are your thoughts?

I agree that the child should simply have been told it was a mandatory requirement rather than be suspended, but science and anthropology isn't left to 10-year-olds for a reason. Her views can be based on nothing other than her parents' at this point, and belief that something's icky doesn't make it voluntary in school.
