I don’t get it. They will be protesting during school hours? And the schools are encouraging it?

I'll definitely be telling them to NOT protest. What anti-parent nonsense to have public schools (the state) recognize your child as another sex and keep it from parents.

You're probably not a great parent if your kid wants to transition at school and not tell you.

Not PP. This logic doesn’t make sense to me. We require parental consent/parents to be informed for a whole range of issues. A parent has the right to know if their child has socially transitioned. Now if they school suspects the child will be in danger, there is already a whole protocol for that.

There seems to over reach on both sides. Schools shouldn’t hide information like that from parents. However teachers should not be able to object to using a child’s preferred pronouns because of religious n beliefs.

Completely agree on both points.

On the name issue, a parent gets to name a child whatever they want, even if it aligns with the child's sex. I feel like that subpolicy change was Youngkin's nod to the evanglical national R primary base.

It’s not the teacher’s job to play parent or therapist for children they see several hours per day and have little information on their home or personal life. There are protocols in place if you suspect neglect or abuse might occur pending any information being provided to parents, but teachers aren’t trained to make those decisions or to provide therapy and guidance to questioning children and their parents. You have mandated reporter guidelines to follow. Teachers need to stay in their lane.

Why should I remind them? If they're getting information about it at school, they'll have the information and can choose for themselves whether or not to join.
BTW, by whom will they be given more info about it at school, anyway? Who is actually sponsoring the "protest?"

I believe staying in their lane includes calling students by the name they prefer to be called and building a trusting rapport in order to be an effective teacher in the classroom. That is most likely the extent of most teachers' involvement. Unless a specific student is approaching and confiding in a specific teacher and telling them "it's a secret," I really don't think teachers are "training" or "forcing" or "coercing" anyone into changing their gender identity or sexual orientation or religious beliefs. And if a student approaches a teacher in that way, the teacher likely should be referring them - respectfully and supportively - to the counseling department and letting them handle it. It isn't some big conspiracy on the school's part to keep secrets from the students' parents and influencing them like they're in some kind of cult.

Should they call you if they see your daughter kiss a boy?
