[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does conservative have to do with it? It’s science. [/quote]

NP but I browsed my local library for a kid-friendly book like this and every single one had been published post-2020 and included some stuff about choosing your gender. I am not interested in teaching my kid anything like this, I want to keep it strictly scientific. So maybe she is looking for a book recommendation that doesn’t include that commentary.[/quote]

I just meant conservative, not in the political sense, as a PP said above. But no I don’t want to even introduce the whole changing gender idea during elementary years. I don’t want to normalize it or present it as an option, is that political now?? I would never advocate for intolerance but I don’t want to talk about it with children. [/quote]

Political? IDK. But your desire not to discuss this topic means that trans kids will be the ones who explain it to your kid. If you’re good with that, by all means.[/quote]

Of course it's political now. Is OP oblivious to the many federal policy changes intended to make it difficult to be trans?

PP is right, OP. Your kids can hear it from you or they can hear it from someone else. Make your choice while you still have time.[/quote]
