Dear Counselor and School Administrator: In recent conversations about gender inclusion at our school, I noticed some language around parents that troubled me, particularly the label "unsupportive" in reference to those who do not prioritize gender identity over sex or who question whether “gender" is the best label for what they see going on with their child.
Where I live, the social transitioning happens without informing the parents.... They will hear ffrom me soon. Thanks to all parents for the information on their experience. It is so hard dealing with this. Like dealing with a cult.
This is such a simple, accessible, compassionate plea. I plan to share with my growing email list of professionals that work with children and their families in medical, counseling, and educational capacities--some of who are finally peaking. Thank you!
It's all so depressing. Just found an email my daughter sent to a friend asking her if she can have a free binder sent to her home. Apparently there are websites that will gladly send you a free binder if your parents refuse.
Well said! Anybody know how these gender identity opinions got baked into schools, medicine and laws? Somehow, the deck got stacked against us behind our backs.

Great, clear letter. I love that podcast so much. Can't wait til they get back to it in May!
That's a great letter. And I love the Gender, a wider lens podcast too 👍🏻
