I also don't see a problem with this. And this is no doubt a response to an actual problem. "Gay" and "fag" are the "cool" words to throw at people these days. These things spread like crazy around schools. Of course it should firstly be the parents' responsibility to keep this controlled, but I don't see why schools can't have some involvement in it, either. I know back when I was in school, I'd get a slap on the back of the head from parents and teachers alike if I went around throwing words like this.

I am opposed to promoting "LGBT lifestyle" in schools, but I really don't see why kids shouldn't be alerted to the fact that using these names in the playground is wrong. And you can't keep kids completely sheltered. If a word like this goes around schools - stop them, before it gets pretty much just fixed into their vocabulary.
