Remember in the last topic when people were debating the difference between "awareness" and "promotion" of ideas?

Yea... we're well past "awareness" now.

So now that 1st grader knows not to do that in the future.

The best way to educate people is to start young.

What's the problem, exactly?

aka bigots

It’s not clear whether the girl was disciplined for the infraction
But we'll assume she was. As opposed to, maybe, being sat down and explained the situation so she'd know better in the future or something.

Not enough info here and heavily biased.

"Kindergarteners and first-graders must be taught that “there are many ways to express gender,” according to the guidelines, which took effect this school year.

Second-graders, meanwhile, are expected to learn that there is a “wide range of gender roles and expressions,” and third-graders that “gender roles can vary considerably.”

They must be taught all this stuff about gender before they are actually taught what gender/sex is or means because they're too young for sex-ed at that age.

Stupid as all hell.

What exactly does she need to "know better" in this instance?

Yes. In the real world people have real jobs and deal with real issues. This was a non-issue, and whoever sent them clearly doesn't have their priorities straight. When two boys get in a fist fight, then you can let the principal know.

Why is everyone here so opposed to a bully getting sent to the principal for being a dick?


Because it's about gender pronouns and it's in CA. So the conservatives who are just anti-left hate this.

It's impossible to tell from the story if she was. I'd have thought the teacher explaining would be enough but she did get sent to the principle so who knows? But considering the parents's reaction, yeah maybe.

If my daughter ever gets in trouble over something like this i will agree with her that its stupid and shes right but just bear with it and avoid that person and just say whatever doesnt get you in trouble. Ill say its a life lesson because at work i find many coworkers and bosses stupid but I have to call them certain things to keep my job.

Theyre literally teaching something i disagree with and has little to do with her education. A simple lesson is to just call the snowflake whatever they want, avoid them and continue to focus on your education and not some political correctness crap.

It's stupid in this case, because you are intentionally misinterpreting gender identity issue.
