Dump Highlights magazine now

A followup on Barilla…money.cnn.com/2014/11/19/news/companies/barilla-lgbt/

Supposedly Barilla went from worst to first with gay rights. This inclusion stuff is something parents must carefully monitor and manage indefinitely.

Glad Chik-fia-a held their ground.

In all fairness…when I called about my subscriptions I was told that no changes have been officially made nor are there any real changes on the table.
I’ll remember to come back to this thread if I see changes.

Highlights belongs to a family of companies including Zaner-Bloser, Boyds Mills and Stenhouse. Highlights is a steady and aggressive advertiser and I’m sure that it can’t afford to lose a large contingency of subscribers.

I still can’t forget what happened to Barilla pasta and sauces back in 2014…not too long ago. That same force is ever in the thick of life waiting to blacken anyone that doesn’t conform to gay ways.

Here’s what the editor-in-chief of Highlights wrote to me:
*In the future, we will depict same-sex families in our magazines in a manner consistent to the way all diverse families are depicted. *

The phone rep. said otherwise but I believe you. I’ll be cancelling my subscriptions.

I’m wondering if anyone else has contacted Highlights directly, and, if so, what they have been told. I’ve seen very little about this online; maybe the fact that Highlights is attempting to force this conversation on families is only a “big deal” to people whose kids have it in the house.

Won’t be getting my grandson a subscription to Highlights … bye-bye Highlights.
