Their's a difference in option, that being the UCP believe that teaches should not be held criminally responsible if they feel a need to inform a parent that their child is in distress and why. This isn't some grand movement to out everyone who's part of a group.
if you were a parent and your teen was in distress and you asked a teacher why, wouldn't you want them to be able to answer the question without fear of prosecution?

My sense is for every person who opposes GSAs because they think schools are pushing some sort of LGBTQ agenda, there are four who are opposed because they can't handle being in the dark about their kids. A lot of parents feel they need to know and have some say over every single thing in their kids' lives. Right up through high school.
So while I understand the reasons to keep GSA participation secret, I don't agree with the efforts to vilify those who are opposed to them and ascribe malignant motives to parents.
