There is this proposal to totally change and accept transgender students as normal. These children are still in formation and too young to decide about such an important issue. Wait until they are 18 years old before deciding something of such importance. If it is all that important to them, let them pay for all treatments, surgeries, etc. to make the change. I am the mother of three, grandmother of four. I would never have let my children make such a momentous decision at a young age. When they are old enough to vote is a beginning. And do not make everyone else accept them as normal for making such a change. In America these days it seems the greatest sin is the sin of "intolerance" and if I don't accept whatever you decide, something is wrong with me. Why can't you accept my ideas and ideals as being as valid as yours? This whole transgender phenomenon is a recent development. Let's not rush to embrace it.
