Some parents and teens at a Montgomery County high school are outraged.
They're upset over an anti-gay flier that was sent home with students last week.
The flier says no one is born gay and that homosexuality is a choice and students shouldn't label themselves or others at a young age.
The fliers were sent home with students at Einstein High School.
The fliers are from a group called Parents and Friends of ex gays and gays. The group believes homosexuality can be cured. And it encourages students to seek help if they have unwanted same-sex attractions.
A school spokesperson says non-profit groups have the right to send literature home 4 times a year, even if the material is against their teaching policy.
We've learned the fliers were also distributed at 4 other Montgomery County high schools. About 8,000 fliers were sent out.
