Yes I would want my kid to have the option if it was something we as a family decide is best. I do not want the government interfering.

You honestly think that you as a family will decide? Good luck with that. Your kid gets hostile because the schools start that process - turning them away from you.

-1 The idea that schools "indoctrinate" is the hallmark of the loony right, embraced by all GOP because they use fear to motivate their followers.

Couldn't agree more, and that's why dollars need to follow students.

Let's give vouchers so ALL parents can Choose among ALL schools. Since schools don't indoctrinate, only a far right loony would oppose such an obvious policy.

What is the point of religious schools other than indoctination? The mission statement is to turn out adherents to the faith. It's not like they say "wow, 24% of the graduating class is well adjusted existentialists , 6% chose Buddhism, 35% are agnostic but actively seeking..."

But back to transgender, none of my kids comes back from public school with the idea that they should actively think about transitioning. Nobody is forcing them to believe in the causes of transgenderism, what God thinks about transgenderism. There is no survey course for kids to pick out their gender identity. They are not indoctrinated. They are not taught anything other than that some of their classmates are transgender, and they should be treated with the same respect given to other kids in school.

The right has contorted the notion of indoctrination in such a way that mere coexistence with a transgender child is explicit endorsement of that decision. So if you don't ostracize the transgender child, you are doing the work of the enemy.

My kids go to a Catholic school and it appears they are getting the same message as your children:
“They are not taught anything other than that some of their classmates are transgender, and they should be treated with the same respect given to other kids in school.” The only difference is that I don’t know if there is a transgender child or not, but I do know the subject has come up twice recently in class (7th grade).

My child with questions both times, so I had the opportunity to ask what she has learned in school. There was no message against transgenderism; instead, there was a definition and a call for support. They were reminded that we are all important in God’s eyes, and all are worthy of support and respect.

Her school has a strong service-to-others focus. This is consistent with that goal.

From what you wrote, it sounds like it's anti-bullying more than anything. What would a message against 'transgenderism' look like? Saying that trans kids are abominations?

But why should white kids in suburbia feel bad about that it's obviously just a random decision that was made not that it was a concerted effort to take houses from those who have the least amount of power within the system cuz you're sure as hell not going to take a wealthy white person's house.

But I'm sure that was the only route that made sense.

1. Dems hate America and are pushing critical race theory in schools;
2. Dems have a transgender agenda and want children to have top/bottom surgery and for boys to play on girls teams;
3. Dems are too woke and they will be punished for their wokeism by everyone;
4. Moms everywhere are angry about covid restrictions and Dems will be punished.

However, Dems have not been wiped off the map and the major candidates pushing these narratives did not win.

Do you think the GOP will have a 'come to Jesus' moment and stop whining about these things after their candidates were not perceived as patriots but instead regarded as losers? Or do you think they will continue trying to peddle issues that no one is interested in buying?

Your claim is that gender ideology is not being implemented in schools?

Your problem is largely the "news" sources you quote. Got any links from actual schools with the curriculum that you are opposed to?

Second, what does it mean to "implement" an ideology?

Again, I don't think the links you posted prove your original post.

I didn't make the original post, I only replied to refute your assertation that gender ideology is categorically not being taught in schools, and saying otherwise is GOP fake news. The sources I posted fall across the political spectrum: right, left, and middle-ish.

It's not about what I am opposed to you, it's about your claim that gender ideology is not being taught in schools, which is false. In fact, there is plenty of source material that shows gender ideology is being taught in schools.
