Shelton explained that the situation was “disgraceful” to her and that she had been waiting while she was praying and God would love her and she would be equated to feel like this, and that God would love her and always have her.
“A school that has to teach itself to love, the grace and forgiveness of God and make it a goddess who also knows that God does not love is good”, lamented.
On the following day, the superintendent, Joel Pepin, lamented that the school “ended up in a relationship” with the Shelton family, including Oliver, Chloe’s husband of five years, because the family members were not alone with the center.

Without embarrassment, according to the shelters shared by Shelton, it appears that the school has changed the manual since courtesy of the Shelton family, although no version addresses the relationships between people of the same sex.
In a cover shot by Shelton on the same day that Chloe was fired, the manual states that “school relationships” are prohibited. A second capture took place on March, indicating that students could build “based on purity” relationships, but not allow “inappropriate” demonstrations.
Shelton claims that he did not examine the manual in detail in order to know his policies regarding relationships between people of the same sex when he enrolled in Chloe’s four years.
Since Chloe was fired, Woolf has refused to hold a family reunion, according to Shelton.
“We have no plans to sue for anything”, he said, “simply echaron a mis hijos después de cuatro años. We smoke in our churches and Chloe plays in the balance of balance and animation, as well as a large part of our life. Fue más que solo la escuela “.

Shelton registered with Chloe and Oliver in a new center and account that the family has received support from local authorities since the incident. Hogares que viven al otro lado de la calle de Rejoice organizeron un desfile par Chloe y colocaron carteles con mensajes de apoyo en sus patios, y la familia recibió tarjetas por correo.
“The hizo feels much more comfortable being the mother and believing that God will love and love those people who do not know the support of the support and the love of love”, Shelton added.
The family has not taken legal action, but “the probability is over the month”, según la madre.
Sondeverbod, it is not clear if an Irish request is in favor of the family.

Religious schools are not obliged by the federal government to publish their position on relationships between people of the same sex. For example, many fathers write in their homes in religious schools and lie when they declare that their opposition to matrimony is between persons of the same sex, according to Castillo.
“It’s important that fathers and future families have a view to school and have access to diversity and inclusion,” said Castillo, adding that there are private religious centers that support LGBTQ families.
What Chloe wants to change is to make sure she has years, says her mother, only that she says that “she does not import when she has an appointment, she tends to support and love, she does what she does”.
