			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Excerpted from <a href="http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=53353"><em>Website Aimed at &#8216;Tweens&#8217; Promotes Homosexuality</em></a>, by Bob Unruh, published Dec 14, 2006, by WorldNet Daily:</p>
<p>A website that targets its messages to &#8216;tweens,&#8217; which it identifies as those ages 9-14, is promoting homosexuality to those children because <strong>the idea of one-man-and-one-woman only is &#8220;so last century.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>The website [<a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/">Kidzworld</a>] also is lobbying children to oppose the policy by the Boy Scouts of America against allowing homosexuals to lead troops of young boys, and advocates for the &#8220;rights&#8221; of homosexuals to adopt children.</strong></p>
<p>&#8230;The website&#8217;s agenda is unabashed throughout its messages to the children:</p>
<ul>
<li>&#8220;Isn&#8217;t the most important issue to have two parents who love you? Does it really matter if a child as two mommies or two daddies?&#8221; it tells readers.</li>
<li>In reference to a Florida law banning homosexuals from adopting, it says, &#8220;Steve and Roger have done more than most straight people applying for adoption. They have proven their dedication, love and ability to provide a healthy and stable home for their kids. Florida should congratulate them not punish them with outdated laws and narrowminded &#8216;tudes!&#8221;</li>
<li>To &#8220;molly_holly,&#8221; who says her boyfriend is &#8220;gay&#8221; but &#8220;he likes me too,&#8221; the website responds: &#8220;What do you mean, he&#8217;s your boyfriend? Do ya mean he is your friend and he&#8217;s a boy? Or do ya mean he&#8217;s crushin&#8217; on ya… like he&#8217;s your hottie? Cuz if this boy&#8217;s gay, I think you&#8217;re gonna have to get use to being his good friend. Sort of a Will and Grace set up. I hope you&#8217;re cool enough to not have any issues about his sexuality, cuz homophobia (the fear of gay peeps) is so last century.&#8221;</li>
<li>In a book review, it says: &#8220;The only difference is, this book is about Paul, a 16 year-old gay boy who has fallen in love with the new boy in town, Noah. It&#8217;s really cool to have a book that portrays something other than the cliché cheerleader/football player love story…&#8221;</li>
</ul>
<p>Regarding the Boy Scouts, whose dispute went to the U.S. Supreme Court which ruled that as a private organization the scouts are allowed to set moral standards for their leaders, the site provided a link for children to complain to the scouts, and then noted &#8220;a lot of pressure&#8221; is being put on the scouts to change.</p>
<p>Then the site provided a link for other volunteering opportunities that connected with a promotion for World AIDS Day.</p>

<p>The site&#8217;s privacy disclosure notes that when children age 12 and up sign up on the website, their parents are sent an e-mail notifying them, and for children younger than 12, their parents must respond to an e-mail before they can sign up. However, signing up is not required to view any of the information, only to participate in the chat rooms and other options.</p>
<p>And, none of the pro-homosexual comments was found on the first page, the location most parents who actually do inspect a site would be most likely to check out, either. They were found embedded in the site as a reader follows various links.</p>
<p>&#8230;I clicked on &#8216;make a baby&#8217; – and got All About Gay Parents,&#8221; he wrote.</p>
<p>&#8230;&#8221;kizzy333,&#8221; age 13, also said, &#8220;I&#8217;m not gay but I really dislike homophobic peeps. If two peeps of the same sex are in love, what&#8217;s the harm in it? My mum&#8217;s friend is a lesbian and she hasn&#8217;t changed. She&#8217;s a really loving parent too. It&#8217;s da bomb!&#8221;</p>
<p>The site features advertising from <strong>HarperCollins Children&#8217;s Books</strong>, the <strong>Cheetah Girls</strong> and <strong>GameBoy</strong> products, among other children&#8217;s attractions.</p>
<p>The site, which says it has had 4.4 million unique visitors, explains it is <strong>&#8220;the ultimate in online entertainment for kids nine to 14 (a.k.a. Tweens.)&#8221;</strong> and allows that age group of children to &#8220;interact, communicate and explore the digital world&#8221; and where they can &#8220;play, discover, voice, gather and belong.&#8221;</p>
