I was a 'bandmom' and the kids had to change into their uniforms in front of each other all the time.
There is always a handful of kids who won't change in front of the same sex and they never have to.
The implication is that a young teen who has gender issues is going to stand in a room of the opposite sex and show themselves. That's the most ridiculous thing ever. That child is going to be more discreet than most of the kids in his/her age group.
Relax -- it hasn't been an issue for some 100 years -- it won't start being one now.
And they aren't mass producing urinals in ladies' bathrooms. Same sex bathrooms usually just have toilets -- just like at our homes. Relax people. overthinking everything and paranoid about nothing.
Do you all know the statistics on sexual abuse and perverts. You should go read -- the transgender high school student is not an issue.
This comes under the heading of I hope you are right and I am wrong. Then again, the probabilities are not all that high of having a known TG student.
Years ago, some students were sent to Bob Jones University from Apartheid Africa. The school, wanting the students to get GOOD CHRISTIAN EDCUATION and thus agreed to block interracial dating at the school.
This ran afoul of the Civil Rights Act and eventually the Supreme Court and the IRS stripped them of their tax exempt status (which they just got back a few years ago) and made them pay YEARS in back taxes as punishment.
Now imagine that Hillary had won, the bathroom mandate had remained, and now schools that didn't teach the Gay Agenda or let men in the women's room would have their tax exempt status revoked and be forced to pay years in back taxes as punishment for nonconformity with the tyrannical edict.
( Congratulations, you're what's wrong with America. )
What do you mean by this? Gay agenda? Are gay people pushing their gayness on you and your family?
To be honest your entire post is one of the things that are wrong with America.
And FYI religious school's, churches should pay their fair share of taxes too!
I have fears about Christian schools as well. I worry about the effects on children from the brainwashing and teaching of bigotry that goes on in some of these schools in the name of God.
The school didn't ban interracial dating because they wanted to give the students a good education as you suggest, they did it because they didn't want the races to mix.
You misunderstood me. The parents from Africa wouldn't send the kids otherwise because of their Apartheid beliefs.
You've got a lot of moxie, geek. Keep it up. I have no idea why you haven't written this board off yet.
