This School Is Guilty Of Child Abuse

The fad of the day is transgender children. Not only have we sexualized little girls from a very young age, now we are telling children that they can be whatever sex they choose (I guess we have forgotten DNA). This has been carried to an extreme in the early years of school, where children are expected to understand things they are simply not equipped to understand, and then are punished for making an innocent mistake.

Yesterday Townhall posted an article about a little girl in First Grade at a California charter school who was sent to the Principal’s office because she addressed a transgendered classmate by the wrong pronoun. Such events are now being labeled as ‘pronoun mishaps.’ Good grief!

The article reports:

The incident occurred at Rocklin Academy, a school rocked by controversy after a kindergarten teacher led an in-class discussion on transgenderism that included a “gender reveal” for a little boy who was transitioning to a little girl.

…The latest incident occurred during the first week of school when a first grader came across a classmate on the playground. She called the student by his given name – apparently unaware that the boy now identified as a girl.

“This innocent little first grader sees a classmate, calls him by the name she knew him last year and the boy reports it to a teacher,” Capitol Resource Institute’s Karen England told me. “The little girl gets in trouble on the playground and then gets called out of class to the principal’s office.”

Capitol Resource Institute is a California-based public policy group that specializes in strengthening families. And they are working with a number of parents at Rocklin Academy upset about the LGBT agenda being forced on their children.

…England said the first grader was investigated by the principal to determine whether or not she had bullied the transgender child by calling him by his original name. After about an hour it was determined the little girl made an honest mistake and she was not punished or reprimanded.

But she was terribly traumatized by the incident, England said.

This is child abuse. There is a difference between an adult making the decision to become transgender (although the medical profession has differences of opinion on whether this is a mental disorder or a valid activity) and a kindergartner becoming transgender. I am convinced that when a very young child decides to become transgender, it has more to do with the influence of the parents than the desires of the child. We also need to realize that children go through stages of development that may cause them to identify with a different sex at a different time. Tomboys used to be allowed to outgrow the tomboy stage. Now I am not so sure that they won’t be encouraged to make a permanent change in response to a temporary situation. I firmly believe that all transgender activity should be illegal until age 18. At that point, a more rational decision should be possible.
