I have recently been educating myself about this confusing topic. I imagine most Common Sense readers are familiar with Abigail Shrier’s book “Irreversible Damage”. If not, please consider reading it. To my understanding the ACLU is hard at work trying to get this fine book banned. In response I purchased 5 copies and have been lending them out to my friends currently raising young children. I also recommend “Trans” by Helen Joyce. If you are a parent, grandparent, athletic coach, etc. please educate yourself on this topic. Both books offer a well written, compassionate, extremely well researched look at all of the dangers surrounding the use of the synthetic hormones now being injected into the bodies of young children in alarming and increasing numbers. I find this current trend to be nothing short of terrifying. My daughter is 11 years old. She attends a Catholic parish elementary school in one of the most “woke “ cities in the country. So far, the staff and parents have managed to keep this confusing and divisive gender ideology curriculum out of our school. But, I’m very nervous that it will creep in. My guard is up! In the meantime, my friends’ children at the public school are coming home very confused! Apparently the third grade class spend time EVERY SINGLE morning discussing sexual orientation and pronoun use. My friend’s 8 year old son is now super stressed out because he thinks he might be “asexual “. My friend told him not to worry, as being asexual at the age of 8 is perfectly normal. In the meantime, she’s searching for a new school. This nonsense has absolutely got to stop. Requiring 8 year olds to talk about their sexual orientation as part of the school curriculum? Give me a break, it’s absolutely absurd.
