7-year-old disciplined for talking about his family in school

From the NYTimes ("Boy's Talk of His Gay Mothers Sets Off Furor in Louisiana"):

7-year-old Louisiana boy was disciplined by his elementary school for telling a second-grade classmate that he had two mothers and explaining that gay meant "when a girl likes a girl," the American Civil Liberties Union says. The boy, Marcus McLaurin, was referred to the school's behavior clinic, where he was ordered to write the sentence "I will never say the word 'gay' in school again" over and over, the civil liberties group said.
Now that's just priceless...
