Brokeback distress
A 12-year-old US girl is suing for £250,000 in damages, claiming she suffered psychological distress after watching gay cowboy movie ‘Brokeback Mountain’.
Jessica Turner and her family are furious she was shown the controversial film during a lesson at Ashburn Community Elementary School, Chicago.
According to the lawsuit, the teacher who showed the movie told pupils: "What happens in Ms. Burford’s class stays in Ms. Burford’s class." Jessica’s grandfather and guardian, Keith Richardson, said of the movie, which includes loves scenes between two men: "It is very important to me that my children not be exposed to this." Richardson said his granddaughter was traumatised after watching the movie and told him: "They made me watch this bad movie."
