Sounds like an opportunity to me. Ask her what her concerns are and explain why she is mistaken.

...then gently hold her head under water until she submits and agrees to bring all her like minded friends over for a chat.

They were in that group that made get rid of Facebook last year. Too much political bs for my liking

this is exactly what governments want with the younger generation of voters to be like. FOLLOWERS! Heaven forbid they don't think with some common sense but simply judge people if they don't follow a straight line.

My niece did too and now my BIL is questioning my riding off road. Starting to piss me off.

I agree, definitely liked Jean's views in many ways over Kenney's.

Kenney has got a fight ahead of him, the smear campaign against him has started already on social media, he really is going to need to show some more moderate views on issues related to homosexuality and separating religion from government if he wants to win a majority i think.

Why does everyone feel the need to pander to the homosexual community? Are they suddenly some hugely powerful voting block? The NDP in Alberta and the liberals in Ontario feel the need to do so and pass pro-homosexual agendas because of the large proportion of homosexuals in their respective governments.
The rest of us for the most part could care less whether someone is homosexual or not and certainly don’t feel the need to promote that lifestyle or force it into the curriculum of schoolchildren. We don’t highlight any other sexual preference so why should homosexuality be given all this attention and preference?
Homosexuals, natives and muslims seem to have the ability to do and say whatever they want and if anyone disagrees they are immediately labeled as being racist or phobic.
How about the people in these three groups try to fit into and contribute to our society instead of trying to set themselves apart and expecting the rest of us to alter our beliefs and society to benefit them!!!

Happy that Kenny won, no doubt he will be premier.

I think in the younger generation there is a real fear of not fitting in, so they follow the loudest group likely to point out those who do not conform. The loudest group right now is those who are dividing us right now which are those who claim to be victims of social injustices and therefore NDP supporters. I have no problem with what people do in their own lives and we should all be treated equally no matter your race, religion or sexual orientation.

The problem i have is special treatment for those who cry the loudest because in doing so your make those outside of it feel like they need to fight for their beliefs and therefor fight those who are being treated special. Just look at the aboriginals in this country, they are smeared all over the news with huge payouts.... how do you think that translates to the rest of us and even for them.

It time we all stop the special treatment and just live our lives and treat everyone with respect.

Also there is a point where progressive understanding ends for me. Trust these words, the more progressive a society we become the more outlandish things will pop up as a social injustice.

No doubt Kenney will be premier for Alberta but I fear the continued momentum of socialism, federally and globally. I totally agree with the Margaret Thatcher line that the problem with socialism is that eventually you will run out of spending other people's money.

I said more moderate views, not extremist like the NDP. Like not forcing schools to out children that join a pro-gay group as Kenney proposes.

Everything else in your post you just took and ran with apparently.

Bingo! I could sit and listen to you over beers for hours. Right on the money!

Apparently. To me having to moderate ones views to appear to agree with someone else is pandering. And disingenuous. And as far as “outing” children, the state run educational system has no right to be telling children to hide things from their parents. Period.

This is the same guy that said he had no platform prior to the UCP election and said that he would announce them later and the members would help decide that, to me that is disingenuous.

FYI a 16 year old can walk into a clinic and get birth control without parental knowledge or consent, or drive a car, yet under Kenney if that same individual wanted to join a pro-gay group the parents would be notified.

If a parent really needs the school to phone and notify them what is going on with their child then they should really consider the job they are doing as a parent.

I don’t know about you but as a teenager there was lots of stuff that I hid from my parents and my teachers. That’s part of growing up.
Youre obviously cool with teachers promoting a homosexual lifestyle to students and encouraging them to hide it from their parents. I am not, so I guess we agree to disagree.

and I bet if this was challenged in court, this law wouldn't stand... caregivers of any kind are responsible until the youth turns 18 in Alberta

I totally agree with this statement, cdnfiredude

It affects all of us, and the proof of that is very evident when you look at the majority of kids today.

Example please. The ratio of kids that appear to be without issues doesn't seem to me to be very different than it ever was.
