"And what's next, she asks, "Same-sex couples attending prom and homecoming?"
I don't see why this should be a problem! evidently this program is needed very much in schools with parents that discrimate so much. if they weren't homophobic they would be moving to completely get rid of prom and not worried about weather or not same sex couples go to it. I guess I was wrong when I thought my children would be growing up in a more tolerant world than I saw as a teenager! at least it does show progress that the kids are wanting to start the club maybe in another generation people will be able to feel safe with who they are.
