Gay parents accuse school of enrolment snub [View all]

A same-sex couple in Broken Hill, in far western New South Wales, say they are shocked their daughter has been rejected from a Catholic primary school because of their relationship.

The couple, who do not want to be named, enrolled their daughter into kindergarten at Sacred Heart Primary School for 2012 but say their application was recently rejected.

One of the mothers says the principal phoned her and said the women's relationship and living situation was the reason the application had been turned down.

I can't see how disciminating against a child in such a case demonstrates Christianity. The only thing that should concern the school is that the child is wanted, loved, and nurtured by her parents.

The Church is so full of medieval taboos still, it's mindnumbing.
