California father is boycotting his daughters' school, saying he is "fed up" with school officials after they reportedly ignored parents' concerns about a Pride event.

Protests erupted in North Hollywood on Friday as angry parents collided with counter-protesters outside Saticoy Elementary School, the same day of the planned assembly that spurred a community uproar. 

Father of four Manuk Grigoryan was one of the parents who took to the streets with other parents to protest the school, and he said he is refusing to send his children back until he can speak directly with school officials. 

"They're too young. It wasn't about the issue of the book itself only because after the book was supposed to be read, they were supposed to turn around and have a discussion about what they just read and heard," Grigoryan said during "Fox & Friends" Monday.
