and if my husband and I were having all kinds of health issues related to the issue, I most definitely take it to the local news.

But I'm funny like that.
You wouldn't want other parents to know what went on at the forced indoctrination centers?

Exactly. The entire LGBT movement is engaged in that grooming. As they say, the movement can't grow by reproduction, so it has to grow by seduction. And that means kids--the younger, the better. It's their admitted, long-standing agenda:

This story is a prime example of the lack of reading comprehension among posters. A bunch of people mentioned the boy using the girls' bathroom. In the story it said he used the STAFF bathroom because he has stomach problems. NOWHERE does it say the girls' bathroom.

The Urban/Metro areas of the West Coast are just plain nuts. All of them. I feel sorry for those that live out there that get lumped in with the whackos. Good grief.

The staff bathroom identified as a girls' bathroom that day.

Parents already knew -- read the article -- the school sent out a letter talking about what the teacher did.

"Compulsory education" is codified around the country as well as many places around the world.

Spread the word!

AFTER it happened. Liberals really are nuts. I can't believe you are defending this. Well, I guess I can. SMH.

Reading comprehension, my asinine. Most of the ones you're referring to didn't even bother reading the article. They're simply responding to a poster who assumed something from the OP, and keeps repeating it. That gets the ball rolling. Who doesn't understand the difference between a staff restroom and a women's restroom, for crying out loud. (That's not a question.)

Regardless, the point remains that this child was being harassed by a teacher with an agenda. Other articles have expounded on this incident with additional facts, a few of which I recalled in an earlier post, and it's not pretty.

From a long term educator’s viewpoint the teacher exercised very, very poor judgement.
  • She essentially punished the child by keeping him from recess.
  • By repeatedly keeping him in from recess she put him in a situation where the other students assumed he was in trouble.
  • She showed the child unauthorized TV clips.
  • She assumed the most complex, long shot reasoning behind the child’s request to use the staff bathroom instead of the most obvious - many, many, many children are hesitant to use the student bathrooms to just poop, so nasty stomach bug explosions are enough to send them into a tailspin at the thought of fellow students witnessing it.
  • She did not pass the child off to the most appropriate staff member in the school, the counselor who is trained for these types of situations, or apparently even consult them.
  • She used literature that even the densest person knows screams controversy potential which had not been approved by her principal or the district.
  • She was not trained to address this.
  • But the biggest, most glaring issue with what she did is that she failed to immediately notify the parents that she had concerns she wanted to discuss with them. That should have launched once the child requested to not use the boys’ bathroom more than three days in row. The whole conversation should have started with asking about medical explanations from the parents.
I swear, this current young child transgender identification is the new Munchausen by Proxy. I am sure the teacher saw herself as some kind of savior coming to rescue the child and awaken him. I’m sure she and her transgender buddy spent many hours planning her next moves, discussing how awful it must be for the child, and tsking over the extent of the lack of understanding the rest of the non-woke people in the child’s life displayed. I am sure she imagined years later being the one the child talked about as the teacher that changed the course of his/her life. I am sure she envisioned herself as a hero and felt that others would eventually recognize her for the forward thinking, progressive beacon that she saw in her mental mirror. She was grooming him, but she wasn’t doing it to eventually get sexual pleasure from him, she was doing it to stroke her own ego.

She needs to be fired, although it might not be possible because of tenure. If she can’t be fired she should be mandated to receive special appropriate teacher/student interaction training.
