It is concerning to learn that children are being asked gender identity questions when they are not of age to comprehend what’s being asked of them. This is according to studies of cognitive development and, frankly, conventional wisdom.
The blatant sexualization of children (under the guise of sex education, or social justice concerns) and the displacement of parental authority are not in the best interests of children. This can lead to exploitation and abuse by activists with a market driven mentality.
This is particularly concerning where sexual dysphoria is involved and lifelong consequences are entailed in their “choices” and parents are explicitly excluded. Check with your local school board, review the curriculum and see if you have grounds for concern. Child abuse is not OK.
