Kids TV show same-sex parenting uproar


A long running and respected Australian TV show for pre-school children, 'Play School', has become embroiled in controversy after it broadcast the reading of a book on the show (with accompanying video) about a child with two mothers.

The Minister for Children, Larry Anthony, said the show overstepped the mark & it was the role of parents to teach their children about such matters. This latest furore follows a decision to ban same-sex couples from adopting children from overseas.
