After reading a lot of comments something has become clear to me. Many opposing parents or others are saying schools should not be “pushing into the homes”. I’m confused, as they would not be. What they would be doing is providing an environment where trans students get treated with dignity and respect. How could anyone claim to teach children to love and respect themselves when in the same breath they condemn so many proclaimed truths made by these children? I don’t know who needs to hear this, but gender is an entirely social construct. Genitalia does not dictate gender identity, sex does not dictate gender identity. It is just that, an identity. No one can tell you who you are. That is something everyone must learn on their own. All this guidance would do is provide tools and knowledge for kids to help them with that task. It would also allow these kids to learn and grow in a school environment without the added anxiety, stress, and fear that comes with stigma surrounding any LGBT identity. Let our kids be who they are, unapologetically and with our support.
