    why a high school would do that i have no idea.  we had an incidence where on of the local schools had a book in a library that discussed cross dressing or something along those lines.  it caused a stir with angry parents at meeting, but i think the super made things much worse. other than that, i just can't think of any other incident around here at least. 

    I know you aren't here that often but I am a teacher and 90% of the people I teach with a great. The "why would they do that" crowd is less than 10% of the people but they can be very damaging to a child, especially if they are helping a child transition without parental knowledge, which was an issue for several years. The 80% of people in the middle don't care much until you start telling me that I need to accept it as healthy and proper.

    i'd be furious if my kids school had drag queen events, but how often is this honestly happening?  i'm certainly not saying it hasn't happened, but i don't think a few online clips are an indication of this massive movement to turn children gay, trans or whatever.

    I will state a local high school did a play called "Head over Heels" that discussed the concept of an open marriage and how trans are  more "evolved" than normal people. I had to at that point explain that stuff to my 7th grade daughter who was given extra credit for going to see it.

    So it happens sometimes under another guise.

    bud...it's called good parenting.  if you raise your kids with morals and values, and you lead by example...they'll turn out fine.  monitoring content and having open conversations with your children is what's going to shape them.  

     

    we've already encounters aspects of this already.  we spend a lot of time in the thousand islands, in the same small town where the locals are recognizable.  one of them is the very tall man, in his early to mid 70s, who has decided to live as a woman. over time this guy has leaned into it more and more, and on occasion it's jarring.  bright red lipstick, completely done up, wearing half shirts, etc.  of course my kids had questions, so we explained it to them the best we could.  now, they just brush it off.  i'll get the elbow pump from my son when we see him, but he doesn't bother us, and we don't bother him.  this doesn't have to be hard.

     

    I agree with you completely about the good parents, this is not an issue with me and my kids. My question to you is why do I need to affirm their delusion? if they get mad at being "misgendered" who is wrong?

    i apprecaite it, but i'm not sure what would happen.  would he watch and episode, quietly walk up stairs to his room, only to return in full on drag?

    It definitely can affect them in unexpected ways. One episode is unlikely to cause any real damage but when it is constant, children take it in and internalize it. Of they are told repeatedly that it is brave to be transgender they will be much more likely to become it.

    I support the "4-0 is all that matters" type takes because we've literally done it the other way before.  There were at least two seasons recently where we had a dominant September (but were only 3-1 instead of 4-0 after four games) and statistically, we looked like the best team ever according to EPA / play or something like that.  (There were threads on here that shouldn't be tough to find).

     

    But, as we should know by now, dominating September doesn't matter and didn't matter in those seasons.  By the time the playoffs came around, we didn't play that well.

     

    For this season, I want to see us healthy and playing our best ball in January, after having rested because of the playoff bye / 1 seed.  All that matters at this point is that we're 4-0 and in pole position for the bye / 1-seed.

    I was about to say the same thing. The issue on the playoffs is we have shown all of our tricks and our defense gets beat despite being dominant all year. This defense will get better and we will learn a lot about them when we see KC again. Also we have won the past 3 games by at least 10 points so it is not a dab defense simply not dominant

    I formed my opinion of you long before this. 

     

    So a Dem hired him, does that mean ale dems feel this way? Or did she just not do her homework before she hired, or just not care. I know I wouldn't want someone with a gun change in charge of my school, but I'm not a Dem. Did you poll all the dems? Or was this just your Magic teacher powers? 

     

    What kind of bull ***** politics do you push on your students? 

    As I said facts trigger you. Where did the rest of this stuff come from if you aren't triggered?

    Trigger? I asked you a question. You guys are always right. Republicians are the greatest of all time. Trump and Maga know something the rest of us don't. 

    The part about being an idiot was just stating a fact. 

    quite the response- I know a fact that is widely publicized that you were unaware of and I am the idiot. Truly feels like knowing facts is a detriment to your opinion of people.
