reading transgender children's book to KINDERGARTNERS>>MOD WARNING<<<

Kids need to learn how to read, write, do math first and foremost, there is not that big of a window where kids minds are like a sponge. We need to cram their brains with skills that will help them succeed in life, and understanding LBGTQHTNKJWRHJRLMJIOWPIO$JGPIOWGJWHGUIOZW$HM$HILWHG whatever or anything to do with sexuality is not important at that age.

 

You clearly have no understanding of childhood development.......

 

A "transgendered" kindergartner???????

You have to be kidding. And no from the reports I heard it was just stupid teachers who should be fired immediately.

 

Not when they're 4 years old.

 

THIS IS KINDERGARTEN. 3-4 YEAR OLDS. They don't need ANY sexual instructions by stupid teachers and especially without the parents being involved.

 

Why stop at books. Way don't we just show them porn videos all day. That will surely answer any questions these 5 year old's may have.

 

No one is saying they're not. The issue here is that kids as young as Kindergarten are having transgender/gays lifestyles pushed at them. They're to young to understand that stuff! Doing this to little kids is nothing but indoctrination into the GLBT lifestyle.......

 

Ummmm...no, they certainly are not JUST LIKE you and me.

 

Are you seriously unable to see the difference between sharing this subject with pre-adult children (high school age?) vs sharing it with 5 year old's.

Ignore list accepted.

 

Without looking it up I assumed it meant "Queer"
Then Urbandictionary cites it as "Questioning"

I remember a time when it was
"LG"
Seemed like a natural transition when it turned to
"LGB"
Started raising my eyebrows when it morphed to
"LGBT"

And now we find ourselves at "L-G-B-T-Q"
I have to call into question this community movement. Is it that they rename as they grow bigger? Is it that they rename to cast a bigger net that catches more supporters? Or do they occupy labels and ensnare unsuspecting kids into a community that they do not belong?

This is the kind of stuff you expect to see in Canada, they're like an all-inclusive resort.
But if America actually had a backbone, I would have hoped some brave souls would step up by now

 

No, that is not what I am saying.

 

You must have blinked because now it LGBTQQ. There are now two Qs to include both questioning and queer and my guess is they'll be adding a P in there pretty soon. Have you noticed how all the loons have gathered themselves into one grouping apart from the main stream but then want to be included in the man stream?

 

Is it just me or are conservatives getting more and more afraid of gays and trans people every day?

 

When the homo fascists are attemtping to normalize their lifestyles to OTHER people's children without their knowledge they are very perverse and dangerous people.

 

Then I was correct in my insinuation - you do not accept ALL people, just people you like. In other words, you practice that "unchristian" concept called judgement and bigotry.

 

It is just you.

While there will be some factions that will never accept the gay/trans lifestyle, it is being accepted more each day....from members of both party. Disliking that 5 year old are being taught ANYTHING to do with sexuality, especially when it is without the consent of their parents, has nothing to do with being "afraid of gays and trans people".

 

Read your post, I'll copy it for you:

Your post expressed your position on how you would handle a similar situation in which you were the parent. You were quite clear that you would handle it in a very biased manner.

 

No. Why should we be? I had worked w/a gal and really enjoyed her - very pleasant & thoughtful lady......and had no idea she was a lesbian until one day she introduced me to her partner. Had no idea Sarah was lesbian b/c she kept her personal life to herself and didn't flaunt it, which I really respected. Finding out she was lesbian didn't change my mind about her at all....so on my part, your suggestion is silly.

BTW, 'Conservative' is stamped on my forehead........

Getting back on topic - kids barely out of their toddler yrs do NOT need to hear about transgenders & gays.......what the hell for? It's a lifestyle they can't possibly understand and would only leave them confused. Let the kids be kids........

 

`
I reject a "certain concepts", not people. As the politically involved religious right have forsaken their core tenets of their faith, I reject their teachings but welcome all of them to share in the joy of absolute love for our many different brothers and sisters, without barriers. Reading and comprehension doesn't appear to be your forte....and I say that with the utmost regret.

 

I always thought homophobia was an incorrect way to describe people who did not agree with gay people.
At first it was basically a case of people disagreeing and not "fear".... but now, phobia might be more accurate than I realize.

The way how these events are shaping up, American people definitely have something to fear from the LTBTQQ community
If I was a business owner.... I would be afraid of gays suing me for discrimination
If I was a school official.... I would be afraid of transgenders suing me for not having a special bathroom.
If I was religious..... I would be afraid of homosexual influence on my local place of worship in changing fundamental precepts of faith
If I was a parent.... I would be afraid of teachers exposing my children to life-changing concepts that should rightly be discussed with parents.

You put a laughing icon there, But I assure you that this is no laughing matter
There is something to be feared here.

 

Yes, perverse AND dangerous. Some spooky stuff indeed. Nothing scarier than having to talk to our kids.

 

Reading a kid a kid's book about how some people are born thinking and feeling differently than others is teaching kids about sexuality now? Sorry, I must have missed the memo.

 

If my suggestion is silly, then please tell me what exactly it is you're worried about? Why doesn't a kid need to hear about transgenders and gays? What about kids with gay or trans parents? I just am not understanding your reasoning here... Do we not teach children about the world because it will be confusing or weird? When would be a more appropriate age to inform today's youths about these subjects? Or do we just not teach them at all. Your post has left me with all sorts of questions.

 

The book was about transgender. Now matter how you slice it, that is about sexuality. There are plenty of books available that can teach 5 year old's about thinking and feeling differently without breaching sexuality.

 

How about when they are closer to puberty or when the parent believes it is appropriate.

How about the schools teach kindergarten children what they are suppose to teach, like math, the alphabet, colors, shapes, how to tie shoes, finger painting, etc., and let the parents handle the more adult subject for their young children if they believe it needs to be discussed. Kindergarten is not the appropriate place to teach 5 year old children about adult subjects.
