We’re bending over backwards to use the new words, to think the right thoughts, making believe that we all believe in nature making horrid mistakes on 40% of her 6th grade class. Are you sure it’s not contagious? The bandwagon is so overloaded, non-conformists have to hoof it… along with anyone else too late to the game to play the game correctly. I’d really rather have a live daughter who wasn’t taught to detest her body, who knows taking T will damage her bones, who wasn’t conned into wanting surgery just to be ok living in her own skin. I’d rather torch the bandwagon, take a long field trip to biology, and all set down our Kool-Aid cups than bend over backwards so damn far we break our backs and the world crashes down.
I especially love your line, “I’d really rather have a live daughter
who wasn’t taught to detest her body.” So, so true! Thank you for sharing so powerfully our shared anguish. Praying our daughters and sons will come to their senses soon!! For anyone interested in praying with others, we meet on Thursdays online and spend an hour praying together.
Thank you. This is powerful. We are bending over backwards when we should be holding the line. We need to remember the Bible: Woe onto him that calls evil good and good evil, that put darkness for light and light for darkness. Hold the line dear parents.
I often think of King David and Absalom. Absalom misbehaved (with good reason) and run away for three years. David didn’t reach out to him. Absalom then reached out.
Our children on the other hand misbehaved with no good reason, often running away into the wilderness and despite us reaching out several times as we have done we get sheer cruelty.
What a messed up society we live in. We must return to God. We must hold the line.
PS I’m not excusing Absalom. David could and should have reached out before as it’s clear that by the time the betrayal happened Absalom had been harbouring hatred and negativity whilst faking love. May God deliver us from further betrayal and heartache. But we must still hold the line and follow God’s Law.
This is so good. I agree with all of this (except mine is male pretending to be female) and he’s an adult. That last paragraph is so well said.
Much more poetic and influential than my "Grrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaurgh!"
40% of her class??? That's insane. What percent of the 6th grade girls got captured by the cult?
My heart goes out to you.
