A middle school teacher reportedly told students that LGBTQ people are "sinful"

Oklahoma mother Dawn Snodgrass is springing into action after her 12-year-old daughter endured anti-LGBTQ remarks during a class discussion.

Snodgrass’ daughter, Karagyn, heard the teacher calling LGBTQ people “sinful.”

Snodgrass got a call from her daughter after the comments were made, at the end of a “political” discussion the class was having. She immediately drove up to Frederick Middle School and requested a meeting with the principal and counselor.

Snodgrass told reporters that she became emotional advocating for her daughter.

“I was upset,” Snodgrass said. “I couldn’t form thoughts. I couldn’t speak. I was shaking. I was crying. Even in the principal’s office, I was crying.”
