Once again they have stolen a regular word, weaponized it and “loaded” it, making it theirs because if any of us use the word kind, it will automatically be considered a word that applies to how we are supposed to treat trans people. BE KIND OR ELSE! Ugh. I’m sick of them.
Correct to be suspicious. The kindness folk are going to land on you with bricks if have a contrary view. Just a way to shut down dissent from current orthodoxy.
Schools enforcing shallow and simplistic caring instead of challenging students to develop deep discussions about the sanctity of life and the wisdom of the ages. Why not give them the intellectual skills to really change the world? Leave these kindness cultists for those fatuous afternoon TV talk shows.
Actually it’s not caring. What we see here is some adults in schools teaching kids how to become emotional & coercive manipulators which is the exact opposite of caring. Teaching a kid to become a coercive emotional manipulator is extending Cluster B character disordered personality traits in kids. If you were looking at Patricia Crittenden’s DMM of attachment, you would see, these adults are teaching kids how to basically use “C” distortions which leads to Borderline. This is the exact opposite of caring.
We have heard over & over how we need to teach kids Social & Emotional skills in school. All of this; Every bit of the transkids stuff, including the pronouns is teaching kids how to use social & emotional skills abusively. It doesn’t belong in any school anywhere.
I think we need a panel where we put together ourselves, from a parent and concerned doctors, teachers, lawyers, scientists etc perspective what good SEL is. What we have now is coming from corporations & activists and misguided misfits (I was one) who are all actively harming everyone’s children.
Fortunately I'm a full-time farmer now, but back in my professional days, my decades of work included teaching, developmental specialist/trainer, and school-based Clinician IV. I follow this site and others, and have been deeply affected by these disturbing stories, and what's happened to our schools, our kids, our government, and our culture/media.
Let me just lay it out there: This is all NUTS. Okay? Batshit crazy. The fact that so many people working in schools/government can't see that (or won't) is extremely disturbing, and I wonder how long such a delusional society can possibly last.
I would not last 10 minutes in today's public schools or non-profit orgs, nor would I consider subjecting myself to such psychological warfare. But I'm very fortunate in that I no longer have to. To those of you still hanging on "in the trenches", bless you!
My heart goes out to you, as it does to all you parents who are fighting against the crazy being unleashed on our kids.
These important details are what people who either have their head in the sand or gloss over the day-to-day realities of what this means for our kids need to read. At my public school: a wellness counselor who directed my gender confused daughter to a pride center to buy a binder with cash, a trans-identified male (of 2 years) as the most senior counselor in the office (celebrated during Women’s month), pronouns and trans flags everywhere you look, multiple medicalized students, innumerable socially transitioned students, males in girls sports who engage in contact sports (my other daughters have been on the receiving end). This is the water our children swim in K-12.
And yet, there have been multiple times that PITT has removed my comments because they were "mean" and "bigoted" This is a left-wing issue and the left-wing problem is that the left-wing believes that PITT is made up of haters and bigots, and PITT not only refuses to fight back, or join sides with the Right, you are in a competition to prove your left-wing compatriots wrong.
I’m in a small, very conservative town. Just recently found out why our junior high has a mass exodus Apparently there a few identifying furries there. The whole world seems to be going crazy
I am so incredibly tired of the left using words meant for good and twisting them for evil. This manipulation of language destroys truth, meaning, and confuses the youth, it's diabolical. They dirty words like "love", "kindness", and "trauma" to mean something totally different in order to manipulate people. Every truth is turned into some kind of an inversion, which is exactly how evil operates.
Right? How about be kind to yourself and refuse to lie to other's to support their delusion, demand your rights as a male or female, have boundaries against intimidation and emotional blackmail, stand up for others who are being harassed or falsely accused of anything. This has got to stop!
After listening to Stella O'Malley, maybe check to see whether the school's 'counsellors' have any actual training in psychotherapy. I don't think they'd be qualified to walk a child through such body damaging suggestion.
It’s so disheartening to read how pervasive it is in our schools! It feels like the school system is completely captured and is now a machine for churning out these poor confused kids!! Breaks my heart - because you are correct: the messaging is wrapped in “kindness.” They have captured the language which captures the good-hearted people of the school system. Who doesn’t want to be kind! But the sinister subtext is, to be kind, you have to go along with this madness. Thank you so much for your post!
Yes. The concepts of 'kindness' and 'compassion' have been weaponized into manipulative tools wielded by delusional, abusive, gender ideology cult members to CONTROL others and force/compel them to participate in the cult of insanity. The cult members are actually bullies, demanding that they and the so-called 'helpless, marginalized victims' be allowed to exercise power OVER everyone else. (And the more of a 'victim' someone claims to be/'identifies as,' the more power over others they get.) There has been institutional capture of too many of our 'institutions' - in such a remarkably short time - which is leading us into totally dystopian society where people aren't even allowed to recognize 'reality' if that reality 'might' hurt some 'special person's' super-special feelz.

Stanley Milgram already did this experiment back in the 1960s. "Being kind" to an unhealthy ideology is just a modern-day version of compelled behavior: https://lucyleader.substack.com/p/is-transgenderism-just-the-milgram

How about” be truthful “?
After listening to Stella O'Malley, maybe check to see whether the school's 'counsellors' have any actual training in psychotherapy. I don't think they'd be qualified to walk a child through such body damaging suggestion.
It isn't kind to allow a child to obsess on a false and arbitrary construct.
It isn't kind to deny objective reality.
It isn't kind to undervalue and degrade white heterosexual males.
Faced with that school I'd go on a truth-telling spree.
Exactly! You must have read my mind.. just posted” be truthful.”
I'm enjoying the line "There are no genders, there are two sexes."
That’s heresy nowadays.. telling the truth is not wanted!
Ha! I wear Julian Assange's "truth" t-shirt.
