I got some time now so I figure I would go through and look at the lies, the undocumented claims and the distortions in your source.
The 8th grade teacher does not say that about the floodgates, but instead it is an anti-gay group representative. Further not mentioned is that she is a sex ed teacher. It is her job to discuss sex with kids. Also note that from the same NPR show it mentions: "In Massachusetts, local districts have broad discretion when it comes to sex ed, and schools range from this one in Brookline to many others that teach abstinence only or offer no sex ed at all." Damn local discretion, how dare local groups determine curriculum...
First, the book:
Who's in a Family? - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The David Parkjer who was arrested? The charge was trespassing after he refused to leave school grounds. His words: "Our parental requests for our own child were flat-out denied with no effort at accommodation. In our meeting on April 27, I, insisted that such accommodation be made and
refused to leave the meeting room. I was informed that I would be arrested."
The book:
King & King - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
From the appeal when the couple lost the first court case: "
There is no evidence of systemic indoctrination. There is no allegation that [the second-grader] was asked to affirm gay marriage. Requiring a student to read a particular book is generally not coercive of free exercise rights"
Ruling:
http://www.massresistance.org/docs/...smiss_2007/order_motion_to_dismiss_022307.pdf
"In Brown
, the First Circuit held that the
constitutional right of parents to raise their children does not
include the right to restrict what a public school may teach their
children and that teachings which contradict a parent's religious
beliefs do not violate their First Amendment right"
And the court found that this case was indistinguishable from Brown.
Actually what it ruled(same source) was that Mass. law banned discrimination based on orientation and and the curriculum has to encourage respect for all individuals regardless of, among other things, orientation. Basically, the case had zero legal basis under Mass. law.
I can find something happened, but not evidence of what exactly.
The book:

Yup, that's right, it is a book yelling about the events leading up to SSM legalization in Mass. How dare libraries carry it...
So in other words SSM married teachers are treated like every one else, as the law requires...
Not surprisingly there is no source for this claim and only two places mention it from a google search, the massresistance nutjob site source and WND from 2004. I can't prove it does not happen, but I can't find evidence it does.
So your source has proven to be one big pile of stinking ****. Every claim I looked at was either unsourced, misleading or wrong.
