Duolingo Stories Section Shows Inappropriate Content for Kids

I use the Duolingo app for language learning, both for myself and for my child. Even though I recently started using the app, I have encountered content in the Stories section that includes themes of homosexuality and appears to promote it.

I find it inappropriate and concerning that this type of content is present in an educational app that is also used by children. I believe that the content my child is exposed to should be filtered more carefully, taking into account age appropriateness and cultural sensitivities.

I expect Duolingo to either remove such content—especially from the Stories section—or at least ensure that it is not visible to younger users. I request that the app remain focused on language learning, with a neutral content policy that respects the sensitivities of all users.
