“A first grader at a California charter school was sent to the principal’s office this week after she accidentally “mis-gendered” a transgender classmate in what’s being called a “pronoun mishap.”
. . .
The latest incident occurred during the first week of school, when a first grader came across a classmate on the playground. She called the student by his given name — apparently unaware that the boy now identified as a girl.”

First grade isn’t as easy as it used to be.

A pronoun mishap
 
Time to home school our children - these people are out of control.
 
Child abuse, in the case of the “transgendered” child even more so.

My grandson, at about 3, said he wanted to be a girl because they got to wear pretty dresses. His mom bought him a cowboy outfit. Problem solved.

This example is absurd. doubly absurd.

If a boy wanted to be identified as a girl, then why didn’t HE identify himself as a girl, e.g. by dressing like a girl? The political correctness police should have arrested HIM for not identifying himself as he wanted to be identified.

I didn’t even know the alphabet when I entered the first grade. I never went to pre-school or K.

It’s a good argument for school uniforms and not unisex uniforms, either.

It’s the beginning of the school year and my niece is a public high school teacher. I suggested to her that the policy should be, that every student has to register such things as name changes with the school office, for legal reasons and to avoid identity theft, etc.

Where does one construe the obligation of a school to PREVENT things like this from happening? Society at large does not operate at this level of strictness, at least not yet, anyway.

There’s a long history of people cross-dressing, legally or illegally, in the US. In Illinois, in the late 1800’s, it was illegal for a woman to dress as a man, for the purpose of getting a job like working on a boat shipping dock. Cross-dressing for that reason wouldn’t even be necessary today, with non-discrimination laws. Cross dressing in the military happened too, in rare occasions.

The parents of the accused child should sue the school.
 
Why are there even “transgender” students in first grade?
 
This society is in the toilet and the hand on the flush valve is moving down.
 
Yes and this has happened in a fairly short amount of time…just imagine what 1st grade will be like in 30 yrs if its this way now!!! What will they be punishing kids for then?

Oh! You won’t be able to PUNISH them!! That would hurt their wittle FEELINGS!!!

Better to wait until they become delinquents and let the official state do it!!!

There was a similar post recently; this post was even cited in the discussion since they occurred so close together. I made a brace of George Orwell references that were erudite enough to fly under the radar of the reserve deputies of the Thought Police who I see on these forums, so here’s a more explicit statement:

Controlling language controls people. Hence, Newspeak in 1984 and censorship in all real life totalitarian regimes. In 2017, we have genders trying to transform themselves into other genders(as muddled as the definitions have become) just like the pigs in Animal Farm wearing clothes, sleeping in beds with sheets, and walking on two legs. To make matters worse, the new fascists (some of whom call themselves anti-fascists in a perfect example of Doublethink to reference Orwell again) are going after our children now. Hence, the real life Little Octobrists, Hitler Youth, Red Guards… Sounds like Revelation 12:4. I hope and pray Jesus will return before it gets much worse, but Cardinal George didn’t think so:

“I expect to die in bed, my successor will die in prison and his successor will die a martyr in the public square. His successor will pick up the shards of a ruined society and slowly help rebuild civilization, as the church has done so often in human history.”
 
It’s profoundly sad and hard to believe this could be the situation for first graders. Both for the one claiming to be transgendered and the other who simply doesn’t understand such things.
 
Indeed; I even referenced it. I was trying to see if the hate machine would be unleashed upon me. I merely dropped the subtlety this time.
 
I have never heard of something more ridiculous. Leave those poor children out of this gender fad.
 
Haha. If I lived in California I probably would! Considering the crazy stuff California has been doing recently, I think I’d go insane living there.
 
Very good.

It also gives you a glimpse of what kind of society they are hoping to achieve one day, nd how successful they have been.

Imo, the movie 1984 was right on the money…That WILL be the world, maybe even something worse.
 
Ya know, I was very much against the voucher system for public schooling since its really just tuition assistance for wealthier folks who want to send their kids to a private school.

But if this inanity rears its head in my school district, I’ll swap sides pretty aggressively.

By all means, let the freaks be freaks if it suits them. Such is liberty. But when I’m forced to assist in normalizing it… the line gets drawn.
 
I have to say I don’t put much faith into the general population of the state of California.

REDDING, Calif. - Those experiencing blurred or impaired vision after watching the solar eclipse may want to see an eye doctor.
Nurse Practioner Trish Patterson at Prestige Urgent Care said it usually takes 24 hours before people start noticing symptoms, including visual defects or blurriness.
Pain is not expected because there aren’t pain receptors in the retina.
Patterson said they treat looking directly into the sun the same as a welder’s flash.
So far, she said they haven’t had any patients with damage from looking at the eclipse, but they’ve had a few customers experience pain after they*** put sunscreen in their eye Monday since they did not have protective glasses.
“One of my colleagues at moonlight here stated yesterday that they had patients presenting at their clinic that put sunscreen on their eyeball, and presented that they were having pain and they were referred to an ophthalmologist,”*** Patterson said.
She said it only takes a few seconds of staring directly at the sun for retina damage.
Other signs to look out for dark spots in the center of vision and cloudiness.
People experiencing those symptoms should get checked right away with a thorough eye exam using a slit lamp, and visit an ophthalmologist.
