  12.  @matthewwade920  "I think the school is not seeing this as misbehavior, which is appropriate to bring in the parents." but assisting a CHILD in making decisions about life long physical and emotional changes is NOT appropriate to bring to the parents?? again listen to what you are saying?????

  13.  @matthewwade920  "Drug use is generally considered wrong" the vast majority of americans are against transgendering children behind the parents back!!! and you are "pretending" that you care about what is "generally considered wrong"???? good grief.....

  14.  @matthewwade920  good grief google... sorry matthew, I put together a nice long response... assumed google wouldn't allow it, so I copied it, but it's getting late.. I will try posting it for you tomorrow, sentence by sentence, to see what google let's through... have a good night for now.
    1
  15.  @matthewwade920  ok, let's see what they let me post, if they let me post at all.. do you ever stop and actually listen to things that you say?? try to step back, and look from another perspective? let me try to help you......

  16.  @matthewwade920  1) "A teen might "come out" at school because he feels unsafe to do so at home - and so the school takes a hands off policy." - making a conscious decision to withhold information from the parents, ad allowing young children to make decisions that will irreversibly change them physically and emotionally FOREVER is NOT A HANDS OFF APPROACH!
    1
  17.  @matthewwade920  2) "The kids aren't being discouraged from being forthright and truthful with their parents. It's just that the school doesn't take it upon themselves to make the call" - YOU, the adult AND authority figure, are going to tell a 9 yr old child that YOU won't be telling their parents about a situation, because YOU are afraid that the child's parents might not like it (is there another reason you won't tell the parents"????),
    1
  18.  @matthewwade920  as the adult you are absolutely discouraging the kids from being forthright and truthful with their parents, because you are telling them that YOU are afraid to tell their parents!!! of course the child is going to be afraid to talk to their parents after that! what is wrong with you????
    1
  19.  @matthewwade920  3) "it LOOKS like the school is trying to keep parents in the dark, or trying to drive a wedge between students and their own parents. They're not" - it LOOKS like the school is trying to keep the parents in the dark and trying to drive a wedge between the students and their own parents because THE SCHOOL IS TRYING TO KEEP THE PARENTS IN THE DARK!! and by doing so IS DRIVING A WEDGE BETWEEN THE STUDENTS AND THEIR OWN PARENTS!!
    1
  20.  @matthewwade920  states like california are passing laws MANDATING that schools NOT make parents aware of these situations... then you tell me that it only LOOKS LIKE the school is trying to keep parents in the dark?? how else do you see such a law??? what is the point, purpose and need for that law? can you explain????? oh that's right, YOU have made the decision, not on a case by case basis, but an overall policy that the parents would be mad.... so you choose to withhold the information....
    1
  21.  @matthewwade920  hmm... let's try it this way... (some states) are passing laws MANDATING the schools NOT discuss such situations with parents...
    1
  22.  @matthewwade920  how in the hell do you see these laws as NOT intentionally trying to keep parents in the dark?? can you exlain??

  23.  @matthewwade920  "don't worry timmy, if you want to become a little girl, we will help you pretend… and help you change your body in permanent and irreversible ways.."

  24.  @matthewwade920  " but don't worry, we won't tell your mom and dad because we're afraid that they might not like... "

  25.  @matthewwade920  "but if YOU want to tell your parents, well you go right ahead and see what happens..."

  26.  @matthewwade920  not sure how old you are mattew, but please try to wake up.... this stuff, these laws are not good for our society... not good for our country.... please.... wake up!
    1
  27.  @matthewwade920  on the fence of this? good grief.. please stop and think about what you're saying!! the child gets to determine if they feel unsafe with what their parents do and do not know, because the parent might not approve??? so an outside adult will help them make that decision?? kind of like..... "yes... your mommy and daddy might be mad at your for taking your clothes off in front of me, that's why you shouldn't tell them"..... wow... and you're "on the fence" with this? just wow.......
    1
  28.  @matthewwade920  "It's an issue where coming out or identifying differently might be a cause for abuse and rejection at home. Why else would a child not tell their parents?" because a child doesn't even understand the consequences of these life altering procedures!!! and again, listen to yourself, your reason for HIDING this from the parents is because they maybe, might possibly, ABUSE their children??? who goes there...?? as a FIRST thought??? do you think that the majority of parents are just looking for a reason to abuse their own children?? I don't even know what to say about that.....

  29.  @matthewwade920  "in some cases, if a teenager told their parents they are gay, the parents would be understanding and sympathetic." correct.. maybe, maybe not.. but that is NOT your business.. NOR is it the business of the "state"!
    1
  30.  @matthewwade920  "being gay, or identifying differently, is not seen by schools as punishable behavior, or behavior that needs to rectified by parents" maybe you can help me understand from your perspective... you won't tell the parents if a child says they want to physically alter their body life, or come out as gay, because you ASSUME the parent will "punish" the child?? why is your starting point the assumption that the parent will punish their child???? and who makes the decision as to what the child is or isn't punished for? who has more authority over the child, the parent, or the sate...? please answer these questions and help me try to understand your position...

  31.  @matthewwade920  "It's based on the idea that any kid who is not coming out at home must be avoiding it because they fear retribution. Its not the same as hiding drug use, self-harm, or anti-social behavior. " ummm.... you don't think that wanting to perinatally and irreversibly cut body parts off is a form of "self-harm"?????? or "anti-social behavior"??? again, I'm literally at a loss for words with this of this.. are you just trolling me at this point? how can you be serious....
    1
  32.  @matthewwade920  an 11 yr old boy cutting off his jhonson is NOT a form of self harm???
    1
  33.  @matthewwade920  and you dont think he's going to be ridiculed and treated differently by other children? therefore would be "anti-social" behavior?? good grief dude...
    1
  34.  @matthewwade920  maybe you could give me an example of what would be considered "self-harm" or "anti-social behavior"???
    1
  35.  @matthewwade920  "It's based on the idea that any kid who is not coming out at home must be avoiding it because they fear retribution. Its not the same as hiding drug use..." here, lets try a completely different approach.... WHY would you think to alert the parent of drug use??? PLEASE try to answer that question for me...
    1
  36.  @matthewwade920  and I appreciate the dialogue as well, and thanks to google, they typically do not allow discussion like this. having said that... 1) you absolutely refuse to answer any questions that I ask... why? (rhetorical... you're obviously not going to answer) I think that would go a long way in helping to understand your position, but you won't do it...
    1
  37.  @matthewwade920  2) you repeatedly made statements such as these: "I think they are going by the assumption that if the home reaction was going to be supportive, then those kids would already have told their parents. If a kid has not told their parents, then they must have a reason for doing so." and "If my child "came out" at school, my first thought wouldn't be, why didn't the school tell me, but would instead be, why didn't my child trust me enough to tell me?" have you NEVER seen the cute video clips of children lying to their parents face claiming they didnt touch the candy... with a face full of chocolate?? children do not have the maturity and capacity to understand what the parents should and should not know to preserve the child's wellbeing!!! you're leaving these decisions, to the children???? (again, all the questions are rhetorical at this point)
    1
  38.  @matthewwade920  3) again... when you say things like this: "OR they feel that coming out or exploring identity issues is wrong and its the parents' duty to rectify and set them straight, so to speak, which I feel is the wrong approach. " it begs the question, why would you want the school to notify the parents of drug use??? so you believe that it's the parents "duty to rectify and set them straight, so to speak" regarding drug use???? or do you feel "that's the wrong approach", and the parents should not be notified..??? I really do wish you would answer those questions... it would explain a lot. but you won't........
    1
  39.  @matthewwade920  here's a question I would love an answer to.. "The kids aren't being discouraged from being forthright and truthful with their parents. It's just that the school doesn't take it upon themselves to make the call" - YOU, the adult AND authority figure, are going to tell a 9 yr old child that YOU won't be telling their parents about a situation, because YOU are afraid that the child's parents might not like it (is there another reason you won't tell the parents"????),
    1
  40.  @matthewwade920  how about this question regarding the callaw.. how in the hell do you see these laws as NOT intentionally trying to keep parents in the dark?? can you exlain?? they are making it CRIMINAL to notify the parents!!
    1
  41.  @matthewwade920  how about this one... "I think the school is not seeing this as misbehavior, which is appropriate to bring in the parents." but assisting a CHILD in making decisions about life long physical and emotional changes is NOT appropriate to bring to the parents??
    1
  42.  @matthewwade920  how about this one you didnt answer... you don't think that wanting to perinatally and irreversibly cut body parts off is a form of "self-harm"?????? or "anti-social behavior"???
    1
  43.  @matthewwade920  I even begged you to answer this one... "It's based on the idea that any kid who is not coming out at home must be avoiding it because they fear retribution. Its not the same as hiding drug use..." here, lets try a completely different approach.... WHY would you think to alert the parent of drug use??? PLEASE try to answer that question for me...
    1
  44.  @matthewwade920  so you believe it's the school's responsibility to notify parents of a child smoking pot, but not cutting off body parts... is this correct????? THAT would be an interesting answer....
    1
  45.  @matthewwade920  "and while others may have the answer, I don't think I do." well I wish you would try to answer just a few of my questions...
    1
  46.  @matthewwade920  "I fully agree that young children don't have the capacity to make these decisions." so you believe the parents who are "owners" (if you will...) of the children, and primarily responsible for their well being, and the closest human beings to those children, and who by-and-large love their children unconditionally.... should be notified to assist the child in the decision making process, yes??? this is common sense.. yes?????????
    1
  47.  @matthewwade920  "I fully agree that young children don't have the capacity to make these decisions." well google didnt like my question regarding this... see if I can rephrase - chop it up into little pieces... if you agree that the children do not have the capacity to make these decisions, then you agrees that the parents who are the "owners" of the children (if you will) (I suspect this may be what google doesnt want said...
    1
  48.  @matthewwade920  ok, good so far.. (sometimes they just make me break my posts down into choppy segments) to continue.. the parents are also the humans beings closest to the children...
    1
  49.  @matthewwade920  and most responsible for the child's well-being.. the school isn't going to jail when things go south....
    1
  50.  @matthewwade920  then if you agree the child does not have the capacity to make the decision, the n the school is obligated (based on what I just said) to notify the parent, to assist their children in that decision making process, yes??????
    1
  51.  @matthewwade920  especially considering that the vast majority (near 100%) of parents unconditionally love their children, yes???
    1
  52.  @matthewwade920  "Drug use is generally considered wrong and illegal and a problem, in a way that "coming out" or exploring some gender identity is not." "But identity is something that should be openly embraced" these are you opinions, correct??? so you are making law regarding my children based on your personal opinion of how identity should be "embraced"?? what if I think pedophilia should be "embraced"? would you support law that makes it legal for me to touch your children, and have the schools keep that from you?
    1
  53.  @matthewwade920  good grief matthew, do you ever stop and actually listen to things that you say?? try to step back, and look from another perspective? let me try to help you...... 1) "A teen might "come out" at school because he feels unsafe to do so at home - and so the school takes a hands off policy." - making a conscious decision to withhold information from the parents, ad allowing young children to make decisions that will irreversibly change them physically and emotionally FOREVER is NOT A HANDS OFF APPROACH! 2) "The kids aren't being discouraged from being forthright and truthful with their parents. It's just that the school doesn't take it upon themselves to make the call" - YOU, the adult AND authority figure, are going to tell a 9 yr old child that YOU won't be telling their parents about a situation, because YOU are afraid that the child's parents might not like it (is there another reason you won't tell the parents"????), and then you think the CHILD is going to make the adult decision and say "even if you won't tell my parents, because YOU'RE afraid they won't like it, I think they should know about this, so I will tell them"??? as the adult you are absolutely discouraging the kids from being forthright and truthful with their parents, because you are telling them that YOU are afraid to tell their parents!!! of course the child is going to be afraid to talk to their parents after that! what is wrong with you???? 3) "it LOOKS like the school is trying to keep parents in the dark, or trying to drive a wedge between students and their own parents. They're not" - it LOOKS like the school is trying to keep the parents in the dark and trying to drive a wedge between the students and their own parents because THE SCHOOL IS TRYING TO KEEP THE PARENTS IN THE DARK!! and by doing so IS DRIVING A WEDGE BETWEEN THE STUDENTS AND THEIR OWN PARENTS!! good grief matthew! think about what you're saying!!!!! "don't worry timmy, if you want to become a little girl, we will help you chage your body in permanent and irreversible ways, and don't worry, we won't tell your mom and dad because they might not like... but if YOU want to tell them, well you go right ahead and see what happens..." what has happened to americans.... 🙁
