Another example of nutty extremists, this time in the Christian realm. They deny these kids a normal life. I feel bad for this kid, hopefully he goes through and attends then sues his school. That would be my move - though I would never succomb to going to school in such a place to begin with.

These parents and elders have become narks wanting to make sure their children don't do what they wanted to do.
