Gloria, I firmly disagree with you, because I believe that homosexuals should be banned from becoming teachers. Teachers are role models for children and by allowing homosexuals to teach may give children the wrong idea. Children are very naive and curious, thus, they follow their teacher's actions. As well, educators are meant to teach good morals and set good examples, but this cannot occur with a homosexual teacher. Parents may also disagree with the idea of their children being taught by homosexuals and as a result a controversy may arise. It is true that people should be able to choose their own lifestyle, however this lifestyle should not have an affect on another's.
