While Constance McMillen is fighting for the same rights recently granted to 18 year old Derrick Martin, unfortunately he doesn't have the same open-minded parents as McMillen. Shortly after media coverage broke out about Derrick's winning fight to bring his boyfriend to the school prom, his ignorant parents kicked him out of the house.
Martin said he got 54 messages Tuesday on Facebook. 'I appreciate it,' he said. 'I was speechless that they said they would buy me dinner or buy me a tux in case someone messed mine up.' But because of the media attention, Martin’s parents have kicked him out and the teen is staying with a friend, he said.
I really don't get how parents can choose religion or whatever their beliefs are over the unconditional love of their children. These are the type of people who shouldn't be allowed to procreate.
