When my DD was at NCRC about 10 years ago there WAS a boy who wore a skirt or tutu frequently. And no one seemed to bat an eye. Our time there was an education in diversity of all kinds for me, and I am grateful for it.

Maybe there's an older sister who has one and he likes it.
Maybe he saw one in a show and asked his parents for it.
Why does it bother you?


It doesn't bother me. I just think it's a ridiculous comment here. Because frankly, I think my (and most people's) reaction to a 5 year old boy wanting to wear (his sister's?) pink tutu to school every day for a month would be, "Put your pants on."


Would you say the same thing if your 5 year old daughter wanted to wear a pink tutu to school everyday?


Of course I would. Pink tutus do not belong in school. (Or on little boys, either, except maybe one time as a great ha ha, but that's a separate issue.)


And this attitude is exactly why non-traditional families who seek a welcoming environment need to research prospective schools carefully.


Exactly. So Cisexist.


Thanks for the new vocab word! I had to google that one. Who makes up this stuff, anyway?

OMG. Tell me what school your kids go to so I don't send mine there!

To the OP, if you would consider public LAMB-PCS in DC, a charter bilingual Montessori school has a wonderfully embracing community with high numbers of adopted kids, gay families, multiracial families. A wonderful place to find a school family.

Another vote for Little Folks. There are several families with same-sex parents.

Little Folks was a very warm and inviting community for us. A fair amount of cultural diversity, though much if that via IMF and Bank families. I understand there is more sexual orientation diversity now than even a few years ago.

Bannockburn Cooperative Nursery School is an amazing community that you would be very welcoming. We had several families like yours and they were very happy.

Ditto. Diversity of all kinds is very welcome. Talk to the director.
