Boy Scout Den Leader Kicked Out For Being Homosexual

An Ohio mother, Jennifer Tyrell, has been banned from being her son's Cub Scout Den leader because the Boy Scouts of America recently found out that she was a lesbian. The Boy Scouts have a policy of banning all homosexuals from being leaders or members, stating that "Our mission does not include teaching young people about sex or sexual orientation, and we do not believe it is Scouting's role to introduce this topic in our youth development program." Everyone in Pack 109 are upset, as are the parents of the children, as Tyrell was selected for Den leader because everyone loves her, and the parents are trying to raise their children not to discriminate because of differences. Other associations such as The Girl Scouts of America, the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, and the 4-H Club all accept gay and lesbian members, and there have been no problems regarding it. How can we expect our children to be accepting of differences when  those who are discriminated against?
