Re: “Cross-dressing video causes a stir at Brentwood school,” Dec. 21.

How ironic that a well-intentioned teacher who attempts to promote to his class a spirit of tolerance and acceptance toward alternate lifestyles is met with such negative reactions and intolerance from some of the parents of students in that class.

To those parents who made such a fuss about the video, your kids will see a lot worse on network television or video games. The video may be close to the edge but your children will not be scarred for life. It was a gutsy move by the teacher and I applaud him for it.
