[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SR US parent here. This teacher was clearly an “ally” for girls who didn’t fit in to the SR heteroLax (sorry) culture. At the time—around 2018–trans mania was getting fired up. We missed it as parents; you had to be on tumblr, discord, and quora. I think he probably was there for girls who decided they were they / them, kind of like as an adult supporter. We found out about the renaming craze from our daughter; she was on the periphery but thankfully still communicated with us. The school handled it as well as it could have. There was tremendous social pressure to “affirm”. The school informed parents but also kept things discrete. It was very hard. I think they knew he was a support mechanism for those girls, and they were ok with it. The video is of course unacceptable, but they trapped the guy. Yes, in vino veritas (lol) but they literally boozed him up and primed him. I would challenge people to think of the worst thing they’ve said about the Church or the Pope and imagine it went viral on YouTube. You think you’d still be popular at church?[/quote] Thank you for this background. I would not want to be hot mic'd sitting on a bar stool, I would sound like the most horrible person in the world. I figure there was some sort of entrapment. Well, like not asking permission to record for example. With that being said, trust has been broken. He is in an admin position handing out 'demerits' along with support, right? The kids need to trust him. I read him as a very nice person with good intentions, but many of the children he works with will have their trust-meters out without some kind of explanation or reparative process. And maybe neither he or the school wants to wade into that? I agree that the school was overtaken by social currents, and needs a transparent policy on children seeking allies. Transparent to the children, to the faculty, to the parents. Put it in the handbook. And I trust that the school will handle this with compassion and dignity. I wish him well. Again, don't think this came from a bad place at all.[/quote] “I don’t think it came from a bad place”. It is very difficult to see into the hearts and minds of others. But clearly this teacher is acting in opposition to the mission of the school and is subverting the teachings of the church. He’s doing it in a subtle way (many of you say already, who cares about genderless bathrooms?!) but it is a calculated effort to make it seem the”norm” or nothing to think twice about. When in fact, it’s perpetuating the lie that gender is fluid (whatever THEY are calling it these days) which is opposite of the church’s teachings. This is how you change culture- push the envelope and hope everyone goes along with it. The problem is that this school has veered so far left, it really has an identity problem. Just flip secular if you are leaning toward embracing secular beliefs. Concerned Catholic Parents need to rise up! [/quote]
