Students suspended for attending a Backsreet Boys concert

A PRIVATE Christian school in San Antonio, California has suspended four of its students for attending a Backstreet Boys concert. Sunnybrook Christian Academy forbids "involvement" with inappropriate music. School administrator Trudie Perez said, "The Backstreet Boys have some good music but some of the music, I have been told, has certain sexual references." She cited the band's song lyrics "Are You Sexual" and "I Want Your Body All Night". "That's not the message we want to convey to our young people," Perez said. "We want a message of sexual abstinence." CR
