AFA Action Alert!

Corporations financially support 'Gay' Big Brothers-Big Sisters

"We shall sodomize your sons, emblems of your feeble masculinity, of your shallow dreams and vulgar lies. We shall seduce them in your schools...in your youth groups, in your movie theatre bathrooms...wherever men are men together. Your sons will become our minions and do our bidding. They will be recast in our image. They will come to crave and adore us." - homosexual activist Michael Swift

As of this month, the Big Brothers-Big Sisters of America (BBBSA) will require that all 500 of its local affiliates allow active homosexuals as volunteers and mentors to children. Many parents who support Big Brothers-Big Sisters may be surprised to learn that their child could soon be paired with a homosexual mentor. In fact, parents whose children are enrolled in the organization's school-based programs will not even be told when their son or daughter is matched with a homosexual man or a lesbian woman.

"Children who are involved in BBBSA programs are primarily from single-parent homes. Many of these kids are emotionally fragile and desperate for attention and affirmation from an adult of their own gender," says Dr. William J. Maier, Psychologist in Residence at Focus on the Family. Yet the national board of directors of BBBSA (at the urging of local agencies in New York and New Jersey) has determined that these boys and girls should be paired with homosexual mentors.

American Family Association Chairman Don Wildmon says this policy will have long-term repercussions. "There's no doubt the BBBSA will become a magnet for homosexuals who exploit opportunities to engage young, impressionable children with their unhealthy lifestyle. It's simply a matter of time before someone's child becomes a sexual assault victim because of BBBSA's political correctness."

While homosexual activists insist that there is no connection between homosexuality and the sexual abuse of children, the evidence indicates that a substantial number of gay men seek adolescent males or boys as sexual partners. A study in Archives of Sexual Behavior found that homosexual men are attracted to young males, including those as young as age fifteen. Researchers Karla Jay and Allen Young once reported that 73% of the homosexual men they surveyed had engaged in sex with boys sixteen to nineteen years of age or younger. It is also important to note that many pedophiles consider themselves to be homosexual. A study of 229 convicted child molesters found that 86% of offenders who molested boys described themselves as homosexual or bisexual.

Wildmon says since BBBSA has chosen to ignore sound advice to rescind this policy, corporate sponsors should be made aware their companies are endorsing programs that place children in dangerous situations. "Just the thought of a homosexual spending time alone with a 14-year-old boy should raise serious concerns within the corporate community."

ACTION NEEDED

AFA encourages you to contact the following companies that make it possible for BBBSA to operate and force local chapters to allow homosexuals to spend time with little boys and girls. Without their financial backing, BBBSA cannot place children in danger on a national level. (Sample letter below)

Sample letter:

Dear Big Brothers-Big Sisters corporate sponsor,

Children are our most precious asset. As adults, it is our responsibility to ensure they are are not exploited for advancing politically correct and personal agendas.

I am deeply concerned for their safety and welfare after learning Big Brothers-Big Sisters of America is forcing local chapters to accept homosexuals as mentors of young children, many times without the parents even knowing. I am equally concerned to know you are a corporate sponsor of BBBSA.

I appeal for your company to refuse future financial support of Big Brothers-Big Sisters of America until they repeal this dangerous and troubling policy. I'm sure you will agree, young children and homosexuals spending time alone is not in either's best interest.

Sincerely,
