Could the next casualties of this new “tolerance” be Mother’s Day and Father’s Day? Silly, you say? It’s already happening. Just ask David Becker of Kensington, MD who, as a parent of a child at Kensington Forest Glen Children’s Center, was helping the school out by typing up their newsletter.

The trouble began when Becker, while typing the newsletter, changed a hand-written greeting from “Happy Parent’s Day!” to “Happy Mother’s Day!” After submitting the final draft, a teacher contacted Becker and said the greeting would have to be changed back to “Happy Parent’s Day!”

Becker says originally it was one of the teachers who talked to him about the issue. When he asked why, he says he was referred to an administrator.

Becker said he was told: “We cannot say ‘Mother’s Day’ because we might exclude someone.”

“I was confused,” Becker told WorldNetDaily. “Everybody has a mother. Not everyone has a mother who is alive, but everyone has a mother.”

Becker then asked the administrator: “Who would we be offending on Mother’s Day?”

The response: “What about families with two fathers?”

Becker then asked about Father’s Day. He says he was told: “You can’t say ‘Father’s Day’ either.”

Retorted Becker: “You are insulting all the parents – the mothers, the fathers, the two-mother families, the two-father families – you’re insulting all of them.”

The administrator responded, according to Becker: “That’s our policy.”

That’s the new policy of “tolerance” and “inoffensiveness”. It turns everything into a bland mush of meaninglessness.
