I don't think it's a good idea... but it's no worse than parents who raise their children to be vegans
Maybe, maybe not. We don't know what causes gender identity disorder, if it's genetic, something that happens in the womb, or a product of early childhood experiences. If the later then it seems plausible some of these theybies are going to wind up permanently confused about their gender and suffer the rest of their lives.
One of the hardest things about being a teacher is having to passively observe parents visit their issues and hangups and irrational beliefs upon their kids in such ways that it turns their kids into confused oddballs, which makes it much harder for their kids to develop good relationships with their peers. You'll notice that most of these parents never have the guts to do these behaviors themselves. They don't cross-dress or change their names or refer to themselves by silly pronouns. No, they have their 8-year olds do that and they have them do that in the environment that is the most likely on the face of the planet to result in ostracism and derision for being odd and different. And that latter part will never change, regardless how many "zero tolerance" policies we draft and implement.
Civilization is turning into "Never Never Land".
"Zero tolerance" or not, these poor kids are going to be targets. School is tough enough without purposely turning kids into a spectacle to appease their parents' SJW bent. My oldest grandson (almost 5) is already "different" because he loves computers, card games, space, and mathematics...but doesn't like sports. He KNOWS he's a boy, dresses like one, has a boy's name and a short haircut, but he'll probably be picked on for being a "nerd".
Youngest grandson loves his Tonka trucks, but his favorite possession is a toy kitchen passed on to him by an older girl cousin. Last Christmas I got him a huge set of toy food and cookware to go with it...but the set came with a pink and white polka dotted apron. Yes, he wears that when he "cooks". His Pappy, my DH, calls it "sissy" (the apron, not the cooking)...even though "sissy" and "girly" are two terms DD (their mom) forbids the use of around them. This being said, I DO plan on getting him a kids' sized white chef's apron and matching chef's hat for Christmas (they sell them at a local cookware store).
