CHILDREN TO “TRANSITION” GENDER IDENTITY AND DECEIVING PARENTS

Just saying, someone trying to set my childs life path and hiding it from me... no. NO.
Heh, here's the thing....it won't have to be a teacher. It could literally be anyone in the world.

And there is nothing you can do about it.

And once the kid turns 18...there is nothing you can do about it then, either.

Not. A. Damn. Thing.
 
Teachers should teach, and if the subject comes up it should be immediately shut down and the parents brought in to the picture teachers should immediate stand down! Also NO NO NO you are not now the Mom!

What exactly are you referring to? Do you think the teachers are teaching students to be transgender?
 
If that isn't what you are continually screeching about then what is the issue? Are trans teens supposed to deny their incongruent gender identity and try to ignore growing gender dysphoria until they are 18 or even 21? That possibility is not in any way mentally healthy.

Is the DSM-5 part of this radical trans agenda?


Letting them pretend to be another gender isn't mentally healthy in any way. they need help mentally.

I do believe they most likely encourage it once it is stated by the student, and I do believe the parents should be informed right away, it is a mental health issue, they are not the child's parent, no they not their new mommy! Teach my child to read, right, do arithmetic, understand History, teach them Biology!

Gender reassignment surgery is mutilation, and changes not one thing other than cosmetically, and should be outlawed.

Agenda driven evil.
I've seen some of this in our school district. There is some faction out there that just assumes parents reject their kids.

Honestly, and I say this with all due respect, the 26 year old Slippery Rock Teacher College graduate who just took a weekend Powerpoint course by some Left Wing activist doesn't ****ing get to usurp my role as parent and determine what things about my kid I get to know and not know. I will say this, any teacher hides information about my child from me will be sitting with me in the principal's office having a talk, and if it's not resolved to my satisfaction, my kids will be withdrawn from the school.

Oh, it's a "complex situation" - so these elementary school teachers think THEY have the expertise to navigate the complexities? They, not me, the parent, have the right to guide my child through their sexuality issues? That's a negative, Ghostrider, the pattern is full.

Forty percent of homeless youth are LGBTQ, but you don't care about them. You care about your right-wing agenda.

Giving absolute authority to parents is a gateway to child abuse. It takes a village to raise a child.
 
People are either borns trans or they are not. It's not a choice to be transgender.
Referring to it being environmental doesn't mean it's some sort of arbitrary choice. https://www.axios.com/2022/06/10/transgender-teenagers-young-adults-ucla-report

There is no real explanation for the fact that 1/2 of transgender people are teenagers other than this is an environmental, group dynamic at play. The idea that someone really believes or feels as if they are the opposite sex is a very rare psychological condition - gender disphoria. The rash of teenagers identifying as trans is mainly a group dynamic where it's become cool to be trans -- rock n roll - sometimes rebellious and also clique-ish. "Oh, yeah, she's with the non-binaries."

Congratulations on normalizing a mental illness issue to the point where kids are at odds with their parents
My Kid, my rules, hands off!

That's what child abusers would say. Stop parroting them.

Keep your nose out of my kids business as a teacher! Teachers should automatically shut down the conversation, call the parents and have them come in and meet with the guidance counselor about what was said. It would shut down some of this mental illness right away.

Till 18, if you are my childs teacher, and enable mental illness to advance without telling me, we have a problem!

You would bring the parents into the conversation if they were suspected of child abuse?

Do you realize what kind of ethics violation you are advocating for here?

Nope, if my kid mentions anything sexual I want to be notified as it is the beginning of confusion, or mental illness!
Of course teachers are to report abuse not what I was talking about! Abuse is not telling your child they are not trans gay or btq

A child has the right to protection from a transphobic or homophobic parent. If a teacher has reason to believe that that child is being abused, they are required to report. That is the law in all fifty states. Are you saying you want that protection against child abuse removed? Answer that question very carefully, PG, because a wrong answer will NOT be a good look for you.

I'm not right wing. I just think clearly. You're just pushing a Left Wing bullshit narrative. According to the latest statistics - 40% of GenZ kids are identifying as LGBTQ, LOL. Something is going on, and it ain't good. https://www.newsweek.com/nearly-40-...-christians-identify-lgbtq-poll-shows-1641085

Who said anything about "absolute?"

Giving absolute authority to a blue haired 26 year old elementary school teacher to deal with a child's gender dysphoric medical condition is no recipe for success either. You know, the parents might already have the child in counseling, and ****ing elementary school teachers aren't in a "right to know" position relative to the child's medical care. The legal guardian - in most cases the parents - are, however, in fact in a "right to know" position. So, a stupid ass nose-ring Slippery Rock Teacher college graduate in her 20s might well be subverting the psychological care a child is already getting. They don't get to decide what the legal guardian gets to know, FFS.

More kids are coming out as LGBTQ, now that it's being less persecuted, and you think that's a bad thing?

Very telling comment by you.

What is this strawman about a teacher's hair color, and why should it concern you? Go on...

A child's right to physical safety exceed's a parent's right to know everything that's going on in their child's life. Unless you too condone the child abusers.

Right, if a teacher has REASON to believe that a child is "being abused" then they are required to report, and they damn well better. And, there is good reason why teachers are not reporting parents to police and other authorities because they suspect a parent is "transphobic" or "homophobic" -- it's because that's not "abuse."

What in the world do you think is "reason to believe" that a child is being abused? That the parents are Christian and believe that homosexuality is a sin, and that boys shouldn't dress like girls? Because if you think that is abuse, you're out of your cotton-pickin' mind.

That teacher, until said point as child says they are being abused, or they see indication of abuse, has nothing to say about my child, they should teach
and I will parent. Do you people wonder why trust in the public education system is so eroded? Because you are trying to parent children not yours and it isn't your job!

More kids are participating in a fad.

It's illustrating that an elementary school teacher has no expertise in this area, and they are not going to subvert the right of a legal guardian to decide what is best for a child.
A child's right to physical safety exceed's a parent's right to know everything that's going on in their child's life. Unless you too condone the child abusers.
When you have evidence that there is a physical safety issue, as a teacher, you're required to report it to the police. Do so, if that evidence exists. If you're just going to assume any parent MIGHT not accept a child's gender identity or encourage it, and consider that abuse, then you're nuts.

This is exactly right and it boggles the mind. These people just say "hey we have to protect children from abuse - we have to report abuse." But, they're not talking about REPORTING abuse to an authority, no. They're talking about hiding mental health issues from the parents, because they arbitrarily think the child MIGHT have parents who aren't overjoyed at their kid claiming to be the opposite sex.
