One of the protesters, Adam Francisco, said Disney is on the losing side of this battle, and claimed Disney is coming after people’s kids.
“I don’t think kids should be learning about sexuality or gender until they’re a certain age,” Francisco said. “And it should be up to the parents and the parents’ side. And if the teachers are going to do it, it should be parental approval.”
