[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're descending into madness. Children at the elementary school level transitioning? Come on, folks, get a grip. At this age children aren't really aware of concepts like transitioning. For example, some girls are tomboys. Some boys aren't interested in boy pursuits. So what. Accept them as they are, but don't make an issue out of it. I was a tomboy as a child, and nobody ever made an issue of it. I would have been shocked if anyone had started calling me a boy and referring to me as a "he." I guarantee that will begin to happen with the current madness. Some of the kids will maybe become gay when they're older, or trans. So what. But that's not gonna happen at the elementary school level for the most part. Don't you people get it? This is about the media stirring the pot and creating chaos. The LCPS system is playing right into this fad. This teacher has the guts to state this policy is ridiculous.[/quote] And this is why the teacher was a total asshat and shouldn't be working with children. The appropriate thing to do at that age is just to go with the flow. Not to correct and moralize and tell a kid, "no, you are a boy because you have a penis. Don't tell me otherwise." If the human with a penis wants to be identify as a girl, SO WHAT? Why does the teacher care so much? Either it's a fad that will pass or the kid genuinely identifies as a girl for the rest of her life. But no teacher has any place arguing with a kid like that. It's beyond ridiculous. In any case, the only reason he won was the policy isn't promulgated yet. If the policy is in place and he follows through on his promise to violate it, he will be fired and it will stick. Also don't forget Virginia is a right-to-work state; the district should be able to fire him for any reason whatsoever.[/quote]
