Parents Irate After 'Kindness Workshop' Asks 8th Graders If They Are Gay, Poor, Or ImmigrantsParents of eighth grade students at West Allegheny Middle School in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania are furious after learning their children took part in an anti-bullying course they say gave "ammunition" to bullies. Students were asked a wide variety of intimate and personal questions related to their personal status and that of family members in what was called a "Kindness Workshop." Students were told to stand in a circle and place masks over their faces, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. They were asked to step forward if “you or someone close to you has been impacted by alcohol or drugs,” or “you or someone close to you identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender,” or “you or your family has ever worried about not having enough money,” or “you or someone close to you has been imprisoned.” The teens were also asked if they come from various ethnic backgrounds and the education levels of their family members.
