Angry fundie phobes fedding at government trough at my son's expense



My younger son has schitzophrenia and lives in adult group homes in between hospital stays. He gets SSI which gets to paid to the group home. REcently, he has been moved to a new group home. The people who run it are the worst kind of fundies. They have told him that gays are abominations that go to hell. So far, they have only referrred to my partner and I. Our son is gay also, but the people don't know that yet.

In addition, they haul the residents to church every week. This is apparently pentecostal type church where is is a lot of crying, shouting, speaking in tongues, and passing out. Now, I respect other people's worship styles, but our son has told us the passing out and tongues scare him.

We are going to talk to his case worker as soon as possible about this.
#1 Religious phoby group home sholdn't take government money.

#2 Our son doesn't need to br forced to go to church, that is against the fist amendment.

#3 He has enough mental health problems without being told that him mother is going to hell. And being scared enough to have to hide his own orientation, which is hard for my fabu drag queen son.

I am angry about this and want these fundie nut cases to get their funding cut off.
