Dear John,

<p><strong>Hollywood is hiding something from you</strong>. Your children's shows are filled with LGBTQ themes, and you aren't being told.</p> <p>2025 is the year parents are demanding change.</p> <p>More than <strong>10,000 parents and grandparents have already joined us</strong> in calling for a new rating system to warn families when LGBTQ and gender-confusion content is included in children&rsquo;s programming. It&rsquo;s time to protect our parental rights and shield our children from agenda-driven media.</p> <p>Disney recently announced they plan to &ldquo;avoid hot buttons&rdquo; in their programming. But how many times have we heard this before? As the leader in children&rsquo;s content, Disney has broken these promises again and again. Disney, Hollywood, and Netflix continue to push controversial LGBTQ themes into kids&rsquo; shows <strong>without any warnings for parents.</strong></p>
Can you help get this petition to over 20.000 signatures? Sign the petition to demand transparency from Kelly McMahon, Chairman of CARA, and Senior Raters Tracey Downs and Mario Moogan.
<p>We&rsquo;ve seen enough. The entertainment industry has proven it cannot be trusted to regulate itself. Parents deserve the right to know what their children are exposed to&mdash;before they sit in a theater or on the couch with their little ones.</p> <p>That&rsquo;s why we&rsquo;re demanding CARA (the Classification and Rating Administration) take action in 2025 by creating a new, clear rating system to flag LGBTQ content&mdash;just as they do for violence, language, and drug use.</p> <p>Will you join the movement? Sign the petition today to stand with over 10,000 families demanding transparency and respect for family values.</p> <p><strong>If we act now, we can make 2025 the year we win this fight&mdash;adding another layer of protection for childhood innocence and parental rights.</strong> Together, we will show CARA and the entertainment industry that parents will no longer be ignored.</p>
For our children and our families,

Dear John,

<p>As a parent, you have every right to know what&rsquo;s being funneled into your child&rsquo;s entertainment. But Hollywood, Netflix, Disney, and other children&rsquo;s content creators don&rsquo;t think so. <strong>They&rsquo;re blatantly ignoring our concerns, dismissing parents like you and me who are tired of watching our family values get trampled.</strong></p> <p>For over a decade, we&rsquo;ve made it clear: <em>Stop forcing LGBTQ and gender confusion indoctrination into children&rsquo;s programming.</em> But instead of listening, they&rsquo;ve ramped up their efforts, saturating our children&rsquo;s shows with controversial content&mdash;targeting younger and younger audiences.<br /><br /><strong>That&rsquo;s why we are demanding the <em>Classification and Rating Administration (CARA)</em> create a new rating system that warns parents when LGBTQ and gender confusion content is included in children&rsquo;s programming.&nbsp;</strong><br /><br />This is fresh on my mind because recently, I was babysitting my four-year-old grandson, and I turned on what I thought was an age-appropriate show. To my shock, although the show was designed for toddlers, the main characters were two dads raising their daughter to be a boy!</p> <p>You can imagine my dismay&mdash;<strong>I felt blindsided</strong>. What should have been a simple, innocent cartoon turned into a not-so-subtle attempt to normalize ideas that are entirely out of step with our family's values. I was frustrated and angry. <br /><br />Here I was, trying to provide my grandson with safe, wholesome entertainment, and instead, I found myself having to explain concepts about LGBTQ ideologies that no four-year-old should be wrestling with. And it's certainly not what parents and grandparents expect when they sit on the couch to watch a toddler program with their little ones.<br /></p>
Sign our petition to CARA Chairman Kelly McMahon, along with Senior Raters Tracey Downs and Mario Moogan.
<p>It was a wake-up call&mdash;LGBTQ elitists are pushing this agenda everywhere, even in places we least expect. <strong>And it&rsquo;s our children and grandchildren who are paying the price.</strong></p> <p>Despite hundreds of thousands of signatures and petitions, these media giants refuse to respect our parental rights. <strong>They disdain our family values.</strong> It&rsquo;s part of a coordinated campaign to normalize LGBTQ and radical gender ideology while stripping parents and grandparents of our rightful roles in raising our children.</p> <p>Make no mistake&mdash;Hollywood and its allies <strong>have declared war on the family.</strong> And they&rsquo;ve put their <strong>crosshairs on your children.</strong></p> <p>They refuse to be transparent about their agenda. And it&rsquo;s time for us to push back.</p> <p>This fight is about <strong>childhood innocence, transparency, and respect for parental rights.</strong></p> <p>The media industry is betraying parents, deliberately slipping LGBTQ and gender confusion themes into children's shows without warning. <br /><br />Just as I shared about my grandson and how I put on what I thought was a simple, age-appropriate show.&nbsp; I didn&rsquo;t expect to have to screen the made-for-toddler&rsquo;s show, beforehand. By the time I realized what was happening, he had already been exposed to a complex and controversial LGBTQ ideology. Even worse, if I hadn&rsquo;t caught it and had gone to the kitchen to finish preparing lunch, I would&rsquo;ve never known what he had seen.</p> <p>Think about it&mdash;if we weren&rsquo;t informed about violence, drug use, or explicit language in children&rsquo;s programs, we&rsquo;d be outraged. Well, I am outraged about this, just as most parents are. We deserve the same heads-up when it comes to these complex and controversial issues.</p> <p>Parents have the God-given right to raise their children according to their values. <strong>This lack of transparency is an outright violation.</strong></p> <p>That&rsquo;s why we&rsquo;re demanding change. <br /><br /><strong>We want clear warning labels for LGBTQ and gender confusion content&mdash;just like there are warnings for violence, smoking, or explicit language. Parents need to know what&rsquo;s in these shows before they sit down to watch them, empowering them to decide what&rsquo;s right for their children ahead of time.</strong></p> <p>I am not alone. We are a massive, united movement of parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and concerned citizens. Children need your voice to make a difference!<br /></p>

<p><strong>We will no longer allow them to sneak into our homes uninvited!</strong><br /><br /><strong>We must stop the silent invasion of LGBTQ content.</strong> <br /><br />They intentionally start with the youngest viewers, and it is up to us to demand our right to know the content ahead of time. <strong>We have the right to protect our children against predatory LGBTQ ideology.&nbsp;</strong></p> <p>Winning this battle will set a powerful precedent in America and beyond. It will protect parental rights, uphold transparency, and remind children&rsquo;s content creators that parents are the ultimate authority when it comes to raising our kids&mdash;not them.</p> <p>The stakes couldn&rsquo;t be higher. If we lose, they will be emboldened to push their radical agenda even further, undermining family values and parental rights.</p> <p>But if we win, parents across the country&mdash;and the world&mdash;will have the right to know exactly what&rsquo;s being shown to their children. <strong>This victory will ripple across generations, safeguarding our values and rights for years to come.</strong><br /><br />Parents have the right to demand that their children not be exposed to these complex and controversial cultural issues. They must be able to protect their children&rsquo;s innocence and decide what is appropriate for them to watch.<br /></p>
Sign the petition now and demand transparency from CARA Chairman Kelly McMahon and Senior Raters Tracey Downs and Mario Moogan.
