    Adults deciding where to settle and raise their families once considered tax rates, job opportunities and housing prices. Now they also have to ask themselves whether they want their children in schools that push gender fluidity, teach masturbation and provide tampons in the boys' room for females transitioning to become males.

    Several states have already joined Florida in barring teachers from instructing their classes about gender identity and LGBTQ choices, and many are considering similar legislation.

    Parents are outraged by the indoctrination and sexualization of their children. In Connecticut and New Jersey, school board meetings are overflowing with parents protesting lessons on gender identity and fluidity in elementary school.

    New Jersey requires that students be taught the correct anatomical names for their genitalia by the end of second grade and gender identity options by the end of fifth grade.

    The Democratic-dominated Connecticut legislature adopted a state budget two weeks ago that mandates free tampons and pads in school bathrooms, including at least one boys' bathroom for students transitioning from female to male (budget Section 84). A resource guide recommended by the state for Connecticut teachers encourages them to wear rainbow bracelets and display gay pride signs.

    Some parents are outraged. "We will not allow our children to be force-fed content we oppose," …

    It’s
    great to see responsible parent groups rise up all over America. Even in blue states parents are standing up to ridiculous and ludicrous new state laws in opposition to parents and their children. Red states across America are emulating Florida in protecting the innocence of our children.

    Parents against stupid stuff are a great movement to stop groomers and their enablers in their tracks.

    Why has this only become a problem only in the last year?

    Did it exist under former President Trump?

    Did it exist during the first two years under DeSantis if so why didn't he do something then?

    Did former Governor Scott know about it?



    This would indicate that either those politicians were remiss in dealing with it or the "libs" ar so good that they can organize and implement such a wide spread program in less than a year.

    Which do you think it is?

    “Gender identity options” by the end of 5th grade.
    It honestly sounds like they are making it a regular decision like selecting which colleges to apply for.
    Sad!

    Parents became "aware" of it during the zoom instruction during the lockdowns. and it became a rw rallying point

    Like everything on both sides, has just snowballed

    It’s been happening all over America. You are right that it was the pandemic and distance learning while parents worked from home or were unemployed that blew the lid off of this issue.

    K-12 IMPLOSION UPDATE: School Board Member to Host ‘Open Mic Night’ For LGBTQ Kids — At Her Sex Shop.

    "A school board director in Washington State is hosting an “open mic” night for LGBTQ youth “ages 0-18” – to be held at the adult sex shop she owns."

    Young Children Welcome!

    "Jenn Mason is the school board director for Bellingham School District in Bellingham, Washington. She also owns a local “all-ages” sex shop called “WinkWink,” where she sells sex toys, bondage gear, and lingerie, and where she hosts classes on sex and self-pleasuring."

    "she’s combining her for-profit enterprise and her need to indoctrinate other people's children by hosting an “open-mic night” for gay, queer and trans kids to share poetry, sing, whatever. The event is to be held at the sex shop. "

    Some images of what's displayed at her sex shop are at the link.

    Others have beat me to the punch - the one positive side effect of remote learning during the lockdowns is that it exposed parents to what was happening in the classroom. Which is not meant to exonerate the parents, they should have been sufficiently involved in their kids' education to have known already. But now that they're having their noses rubbed in lefty filth, they're doing the right thing.

    Parents finally asserting themselves is new and without parents pushing back clearly the groomers will be grooming. And, the Administration is treating parents who push back against school boards as potential terrorists.

    Our Founders and Framers warned that Eternal Vigilance is the price of Freedom and we are only now taking that admonition seriously enough for danger that these folks in positions of authority pose to our children.

    The solutions are:
    1. Name and Shame - and that's why these creeps can never how the power to censor the press or silence free speech.
    2. Voting Booth - and that's why election integrity is a top issue.
    3. The Court - and that's why they must not be allowed to intimidate and/or destroy our independent judiciary.

    Ok remote learning is a possibility. Remote learning lessons were recorded and open to the public. Got any recordings of any of those lessons?

    If you don't want your children attending, forbid them to go.

    Really? It used to be a crime to let anyone under 18 into such a store in the first place much less encouraging and inviting them there. Lock her up!

    I suspect that once certain things are removed that children are not legally allowed to handle that the evenings event will be perfectly legal.

    I agree that it's completely distasteful, but don't agree we should be locking up people just because we don't like them.

    The radical left went too far and now they will pay the price. The silent majority has had enough.

    This is why now that they are being called out on their excesses they are resorting to calling us domestic terrorists for doing so

    Why don't people who believe this provide any substantive evidence? Why doesen't our governer provide evidence when he makes these claims? His Education Department has public school curriculums from all over the state but no specifics? His department takes math books out of schools without explaining why they are objectionable.

    There are over 130,000 public schools in the U.S. with 76.8 million students. Think about how hard organizing this effort would have been.
    Think about how difficult it would have been to keep this away from federal, state and local officials.
    Look back on your own education, your children's education, your grandchildrens education, do you find any examples of this there.
    Think about how many outraged parents there should be if this were true.
    Think about how many patriotic teachers have come foreward to provide evidence.

    This is not logical. You need to look at the evidence. Look at things with a critical eye, not just believe something because you want it to be so.

    In my opinion this is a dangerous conspiracy theory that is destroying our public education system.

    My reply to your opinion is to quote you: "Why don't people who believe this provide any substantive evidence?"

    You see, I did provide much evidence and all I asked you to do was look at it and think about it. It appears you are unwilling to do so.

    So why are there protests about CRT, 1619 propaganda, trans in girls sports and bathrooms, and grooming at ever younger ages happening at school board meetings all over the country?

    You speak in genralizations...all over the country??? Some people are upset because they believe things they are told without checking them out. Some people because they "hate," some people for political or personal gain and some people because they may have something to justly complain about in their schools.

    We've lost our innocence if we haven't already.
