Why does the "Q" need to be part of any childhood instruction?

Kids do not nedd to know about orgies, polygamy, public sex fetishes, kinkis, etc.

I think your advocates are losing a lot of ground on the Q stuff.

No parent wants that information taught to children, not even most of the gay and lesbian parents.

This is where in the curriculum? Which grade level(s)?

My bet is there will be no answer to this either. Just keep spewing nonsense.

Because it’s all faux outrage.

Exactly, but they need to be called out on it. This thread will go onto another page, some crazy claim will be thrown out and they need to be called on it again.

Why not? It’s accurate. And certainly more precise.

What you “care for” isn’t relevant anyway. You’re only a parent — leave the education of your children to professionals. Your opinions about this don’t matter at all. Stay in your lane.

It’s neither accurate nor precise. Sex is observed at birth, not assigned.

Again, that terminology (assigned male or female at birth) has been used by FCPS through the entire 2022-2023 school year, making it oficial as early as last year. Go back to last years’ school correspondence and you’ll see it. It is there!

The terminology is accurate and looks good to me. What exactly is the problem? You are acting like it should be obvious. Explain it to me like I am 5.

Cute. But they'll hear it anyway. But if you wanna bury your head in the sand about it, the void will just be filled by others elsewhere.

It isn't burying my head in the sand. It is me providing my kids with information, not the school.

This is why the school needs to teach it. You intend to give your children incorrect and bad information. That’s not good for your children or society.

Maybe your children should be removed from your care if you are going to be this neglectful. It’s not like Your position on this is valid or should be respected.

DP. You have problems with teaching "biology" as opposed to fiction? "Sex assigned at birth" is not science.

It’s language. Accurate language. And in fact, biological. So, in fact, science.

The better question is why are you so hung up on these semantics?

Well, that magical dude in the sky you think exist assigned it. Maybe that will help you come to terms.

Good Lord, you’re all worked up about semantics. Why do you CARE so much? It literally doesn’t affect you.

Smarter people than you have decided this is the proper way to teach this material. So just sit down and shut up. You are beyond annoying and incredibly offensive.

It is called communication. As opposed to "gaslighting."

Have the School Board explain to you why it wasn’t approved. You’ll understand their explanation better.

A better question: Why are YOU so hung up on other people’s children?

So are you saying that the Republican-led government (and VDOE) changed the curriculum? Or do you have access to some new curriculum that FCPS is using?

If you have children in FCPS you most certainly have received correspondence from the county using this new gender identity terminology. In fact, the latest survey sent to parents last fall on the proposed FLE changes uses it exclusively.

This was the recommendation for last year’s curriculum:
SY2022 - 23 Family Life Education Curriculum Advisory Committee (FLECAC) Consideration
In 2022 - 23 FLECAC should explore and recommend changes regarding inclusion of the gender spectrum in the elementary FLE curriculum and a more overall inclusive curriculum in Family Life Education.

The entire document:
https://www.fcps.edu/node/33908

So, I see that’s what the-powers-that-be are recommending or suggesting. Has this been approved? Will this be the curriculum this year? If not, then why opt-out your kid this year unless you were going to do it anyway, regardless of the actual curriculum. To say you are opting out this year because of future proposed language is disingenuous.
