¡¡¡¡Alabama Public Television says it won't air an episode of the children's show "Arthur" that featured a same-sex marriage."Mr. Ratburn and the Special Someone" aired as the premiere for the show's 22nd season on May 13. But not in Alabama.Programming director Mike McKenzie says Alabama Public Television has no plans to broadcast the episode.The storyline about Mr. Ratburn's marriage conveys a positive message, he said. But while many parents will find it appropriate, many others will disagree, he said -- "either because their children are too young, or because of their beliefs.""Our broadcast would take away the choice of parents who feel it is inappropriate," McKenzie told CNN in a statement.The response to the decisionCNN has reached out to WGBH, which produces the series, and is waiting to hear back. PBS told CNN that its local channels decide what to put on the air in their markets."PBS Kids programs are designed to reflect the diversity of communities across the nation," PBS Kids' Maria Vera Whelan told CNN. "We believe it is important to represent the wide array of adults in the lives of children who look to PBS Kids every day."The show's creator told CNN he felt like the episode was a responsibility they had with Arthur.Mark Brown cited his friend Fred Rogers, better known as Mr. Rogers, who taught him how television could be used to help children in families."So many of us have have family or friends who are gay who are not represented in the media," Brown says. "We have people in our family that are gay and raising children and looking for things to validate their families."The ceremony is a literal wink and nodThe episode doesn't specifically address Ratburn's sexuality or show a marriage ceremony."Who is Mr. Ratburn marrying?" Muffie, one of the character, asks.The scene then cuts to Mr. Ratburn, their third-grade teacher walking down the aisle with Patrick, a chocolate maker. Patrick simply answers the children with a wink.To see the episode for yourself, view the episode by clicking 2046
¡¡¡¡A veteran educator says there's no shortage of moms and dads who are willing to bend or ignore school rules to do what they think is best for their child. Elementary school principal Gerry Brooks, of Lexington, Kentucky shared his opinion in a funny video about a serious topic ¡ª the recent college admissions scandal case in which actors Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin, among dozens of others, were charged.An administrator for 12 years and former teacher, Brooks said in an interview with CNN that no educators should be surprised by the scandal. Some parents will do things that disagree with policies in place to meet their personal needs.In the interview, Brooks said it has been his experience that parents will lie about why their children are late to school, drive around cones in student drop-off lanes, allow peanut butter to be brought into classrooms with allergic students and more. They will lie about larger issues such as their official home address to ensure their children get into schools with stronger ratings and athletic departments.He says it is a misunderstanding of what they think is best versus rules the schools put in place to provide the top safety and education. 1209
