According to KPTV-TV, an Oregon elementary school teacher tried to convince an 8-year-old student that he was transgender. The schoolteacher did this without involving the parents. The result? The boy is now aggressive, depressed, and confused.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe teacher at Nellie Muir Elementary School in Woodburn targeted the boy for transgender indoctrination when he started using the staff restroom after a stomach issue made him feel uncomfortable about using the boys’ toilet. The teacher took the 8-year-old aside, spoke shortly to him, and then proceeded to share all kinds of transgender literature and videos with him. The teacher asked the boy several times whether he thought he was a girl and even held him out of recess in order to read transgender books and watch transgender videos. Oh, and to top it off, there were one-on-one conversations about transgenderism.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cAll this was done without the parents’ consent or even their knowledge. It only came out when the boy came home with a book about transgenderism and when he talked to a therapist (while crying his eyes out).\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"> Unsurprisingly, the <a href=\"https:\/\/hotair.com\/archives\/ed-morrissey\/2019\/05\/10\/parents-sue-oregon-school-district-attempts-transgender-8-year-old\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">parents are suing<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cBear in mind that this wasn\u2019t a teenager, which might be bad enough, but an eight year old with a stomach problem. Even granting the best of possible intentions, why wouldn\u2019t the first step in dealing with suspicions of gender dysphoria be to contact the child\u2019s parents? It\u2019s not as if the parents in this case are social neanderthals, at least from the perspective of Academia. They tell reporter Bonnie Silkman in the video that they aren\u2019t concerned about what identity he chooses as long as he chooses it, and not get indoctrinated into it by an activist teacher.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201c\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe most impressively <em>loco<\/em> part of this story is that the teacher still works at the school \u2014 a full year after the school confirmed the parents\u2019 story. The only correction the teacher received was to be reminded of the district\u2019s policies on \u201ccontroversial issues\u201d and to notify parents and the school when she \u201calters a student\u2019s regular school day.\u201d Meanwhile, this family will be dealing with the aftershocks of her actions for <em>years<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe school district declined to comment on the story because of the lawsuit, but they might owe an explanation to the other parents in the district, especially to those whose children are within this teacher\u2019s supervision. How many other children has she attempted to indoctrinate into transgender identities? And how many of the parents in this school district \u2014 and elsewhere \u2014 might start considering private schools or home-schooling to protect their children from predatory behavior?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5371\" src=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/eag_line.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"37\" srcset=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/eag_line.gif 500w, https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/eag_line-300x22.gif 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><!--more--> It\u2019s not just identity, but also about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-7465845\/Transgender-group-says-children-young-12-offered-puberty-blocking-medication.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">messing up puberty<\/a>!<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cChildren as young as 12 who question their gender identity should be offered puberty blockers, according to a transgender group.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cTeachers were told in a training session led by a trainer for the group Mermaids the hormones give the children ‘immense relief’ and are ‘completely reversible’.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe meeting was held at Newman University in Birmingham last December with around 20 teachers and pastoral staff.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cA recording obtained by the Sunday Times was made by an audience member in which the trainer says: ‘Puberty blocker medication doesn’t make any changes, so [is] completely reversible.\u201c<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5371\" src=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/eag_line.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"37\" srcset=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/eag_line.gif 500w, https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/eag_line-300x22.gif 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"> If the kids ain\u2019t convinced to change genders, then perhaps some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.campusreform.org\/?ID=13695\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">steamy exchanges with adults<\/a> over \u201cqueer\u201d experiences will help?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cA University of California, Berkeley course starting September 19 will offer students the chance to share \u201cqueer-related stories\u201d with local middle and high school students to encourage students who have not revealed their sexuality to pursue higher education.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cDubbed \u2018Bear Closet,\u2019 the course \u2018welcomes all students, whether LGBTQ, an ally, or just interested in learning.\u2019 The course, taught by a student but faculty-approved, is seeking enrollees who are looking for \u2018sharing queer-related stories\/experiences…at middle and high school classrooms, in hopes of motivating out or closeted youth to pursue college education with the assurance of a better future.\u2019<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201c\u2018Bear Closet\u2019 promises times allotted for discussions, as well as \u2018bonding among its members\u2019 in order to instill values of community service.
