That’s high school level biology/genetics curriculum, not kindergarten.

+1 just had this discussion with my 17 yr old DD who has a few gay friends, one who is her bff since 8. She said ES is not age appropriate to bring up these topics.

My older kid had a bff in ES whose parents were gay. It was just matter of fact for them - oh, my bff has two moms, and that was it. ES children don't delve too deeply into the whys and hows. They just accept it. There is no reason to teach them about the rest of the alphabet soup of genders at this age.

Ok. So you asked a cisgender, heterosexual teen, who presumably has cisgender heterosexual parents, and who also has a primarily cisgender and heterosexual peer group, and who has never been a parent, what she thought would be good for queer kids and kids with same sex parents? And you are offering this in the spirit of authority?

DP. Your question was “what’s good for queer kids and kids with same sex parents.” That’s not the charge of our elementary public school system. Getting confused about the mission of public school education is how we got into this situation.

It is absolutely the job of public education to reflect the everyday lives of students, and to create a welcoming environment in which they see their own reality reflected back to them. This contributes to classroom learning.

Then how about doing that for all groups, family styles and disabilities and not just your chosen favorite one.

That's the point! No one is saying only teach about LGBTQ families! Those of us who want "My Uncle's Wedding" read in school ALSO want other books reflecting diverse experiences. Lailah's Lunchbox, Jabari Jumps, Eyes the Kiss Corners, What Happened to You, The Girl who Thought in Pictures.

Why do you want to steal innocence from children? You should reflect on that during therapy.

How’s it stealing innocence to know that somebody is in a wheelchair? Or that some people fast during Ramadan?

Name calling and hate for others. Be clear you do not support love is love. You don’t love.

Can you point me to where someone on this thread said kids shouldn’t know someone was in a wheelchair or that some people fast during Ramadan? Can you also let us know how this relates to the elementary school curriculum?

You can have all the tantrums you want, but that doesn’t change the transcript.

Candidly the district lost the entire case in oral argument because they came across as unprepared and stupid.

The case was nearly impossible to salvage by that point.

There was no name calling in my post.

And also wondering what happened to you in your childhood that you see a leather jacket and you think bondage and it makes me think that you were sexually molested. That is a demented way of thinking and if that is what happens when you look at a leather jacket, you might want to talk to a therapist. And I say that with all the love in the world.

You think teaching kids about the AAPI experience, or kids with disabilities, is "sealing their innocence?"

Wow.

Wow. This just shows the end agenda of the right-wingers. Nothing but perfect eugenic white families.

I’m not a right winger, I just think school should be for learning. Not your agenda.

Exactly, lets get back to basics. Let politics, personal beliefs, religion and all that to parents' outside the school. They spend more time on this nonsense than they do actual teaching.

Agreed. So why are people trying to force their personal agenda and religion on the school system by demanding the right to review and opt out of what books are read? Let the teachers teach and don't micromanage what books they use to do it or waste their time with having to figure out some complicated opt-out process for your special snowflake You can have your own religion and personal beliefs but you need to communicate those to your children outside of the schools, not tell the schools what they can and can't have in their books.

Actually, if you read the whole case on Montgomery County Public school said that they could not manage tons of children opting out because they didn’t have the staff to manage it.

The Supreme Court actually agreed with them and said that kids can stay home and have an excused absence.

So they didn’t actually totally lose. They do not have to provide alternate plans.

If you really read this ruling , this is actually another win from Montgomery County Public schools. Because they provided an opt out and they provided excused absences, teachers do not have to change their curriculum. They do not have to ban any books. They do not have to get rid of any of these books.

It's bizarre. Do some parents think kids are reading x rated books in elementary school?

If you read the post above my post, you can see the person thanks reading Lailah’s lunchbox is stealing their child’s innocence

Those things are not taught when you talk about being inclusive. Or, at least our experience they never talk about different religions and disabilities.

Some teachers are very inappropriate with what they teach and share. You cannot have your own beliefs or religion as kids who speak up about them or their different families get reprimanded and targeted. Speaking from experience. Go back to the basics and don’t offend anyone.
