I’m sure most of this whole fustercluck is all because the Premier was teased as a child for his last name.

„Parents‘ rights“ but what about the children’s rights?

The solution is to stay in the profession and use coded language to let students know you’re safe to talk to. Then, disobey the order that requires you to tell parents if any child indicates they’d feel unsafe or unready to do so.
This bill is just a weak way to silence queer people, but we’ve been silenced for most of recent history. We can overcome this

I was speaking to a teacher recently who said they have to maintain a giant chart with each child’s pronouns, and that they’re subject to change day by day. Most of the kids think it’s funny, and just use it to troll.
What the fuck is going on? The majority actually thinks this is normal and healthy behaviour?

Back around 2012 when I was in high school we had an assembly and part of that assembly was a speech from the daughter of one of our schools gym teachers. She was younger than most of the students there, but she was explaining what gender identity is, and what it means to be trans. This was a time when it wasn’t talked about that much publicly in a small town. She talked about the bullying she faced in her own school, as well as the acceptance she had from certain members of her community, how hard and how long it took her parents to take her seriously. It was a really touching story, and the reason that was part of the assembly was because our school administration wanted their students to not bully others or be bullied, to feel safe and to teach them about a topic they might not know about so any other students who were having questions about themselves would know it was okay. Afterwards not a single kid was a dick, most people gave a good round of applause and a lot of the older students in our high school gave her hugs and talked with her after. It was normal and sweet.
Things are regressing so much now and it makes me really sad.
My cousin is only 18 and they already avoid large gatherings because they’re worried they’ll be verbally assaulted by someone for being visibly trans and it’s too emotionally draining to have to face every time they go out.

>Jake was never explicitly barred from talking about his gender and sexuality, but it was clear to him that he was expected to keep quiet on these topics.
Is it really necessary to discuss your sexuality with the children?

I thought it was letting the students swear, threaten and sometimes beat the shit out of the teachers that was driving them out.

The whole pronoun thing was just conservative virtue signaling for create a wedge issue, now that trudeau is gone can they stop pretending it mattered?

We are happy with our daughters private school education more than ever…
Don’t like our rules and discipline?…. There’s the door – plenty of public schools down the road.

>Jake says some of his queer and trans colleagues and professors have noticed that the bill has emboldened people both within education and at large to be more vocal about their transphobic views—for example, raising hot-button topics such as [trans women in sports](https://xtramagazine.com/power/politics/alberta-girls-sports-policy-277052) in a bad-faith manner—when they otherwise might have been silent.
Curious what ‚bad faith‘ here means. Is it bad faith to just say you don’t think biologically born males should be in women’s sports? I’d imagine lots of people would immediately accuse you of bigotry and ‚bad faith‘ for even bringing up the subject, let alone any other further discussion, based on what I’ve seen.
