Study Reveals Shocking Truth About Children’s Programming on Netflix

A new study from Concerned Women for America shows that over 41% of children’s shows on Netflix contain LGBT content.

The comprehensive analysis shows how the streaming giant is pushing adult themes on young viewers. The study found that while less than 10% of the overall population identifies as LGBT, 41% of G-rated series and 41% of TV-Y7-rated series on Netflix include LGBT characters, themes, or messaging. Even shows rated TV-Y for the youngest children contained pro-LGBT content 21% of the time.

The study also revealed a troubling pattern of “updating” popular children’s shows like “The Baby-Sitter’s Club,” and “She-Ra” with LGBT characters in reboots and later seasons.

All of this underscores why parents must pay attention to what their children see online and on television. Netflix can push harmful material and pro-LGBT content to children at home — often without parents realizing it. If consumers demand more appropriate entertainment, Netflix and other companies might be willing to deliver it.

Home School Numbers Hit Record Highs Across America

Home schooling continues to surge across the United States. New data shows growth rates nearly triple what they were before the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to Johns Hopkins University research, home school enrollment grew 5.4% in the 2024-2025 school year—compared to just 2% growth before COVID-19. States like South Carolina saw 21.5% growth, while New Hampshire and Vermont rebounded with double-digit increases after temporary declines.

Homeschooling in Arkansas has surged since 2020. In 2019 there were a little less than 22,000 homeschoolers in Arkansas. In early 2020, those numbers climbed to 22,249. During the 2020-2021 school year, home schooling spiked to 30,267 students. By 2024, homeschooling surged again, to 32,767 students.

Arkansas has become a leader in educational freedom. The 2023 LEARNS Act lets public dollars follow students, giving families real opportunities to choose the best education for their children — whether that’s at a public school private school, or home school.

Family Council has always believed families deserve options when it comes to education. That’s one reason we support home schooling.

Research shows parental involvement generally is tied to better educational outcomes for children. That’s true no matter how families choose to educate their children — but home schooling is particularly good for many families, because it lets them choose the education that’s best for them.

Home schooling offers more than an education. It gives parents the freedom to pass their values and convictions to their children. Families can customize curriculum, set their own schedules, and ensure their children receive one-on-one attention that large public school classrooms cannot always provide.

It’s good to see families taking advantage of everything homeschooling has to offer.
