Yes, I already read that article. It was in our local newspaper.
I did think it interesting, perhaps a sign of the times in a "red" state.
You don't think they're called "red" states due to any comparison to
"red" countries where totalitarianism is the norm and the rights of the
many are trampled by the dictates of a powerful few do you? Nah, that
couldn't be, not in a land where "life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness" are part of the founding ideals.
While I agree with the boy's mother that often lawsuits aren't the way
to resolve problems, they very often are the ONLY way to force such
issues to the national forefront and get them resolved in a fair manner.
On a Finale note (just to keep it somewhat relevant): it'll be wise not
to make any arrangements for school-age groups which include
countertenor, not if you want to sell them in Texas.
