The_DADDY Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 .....to students as young as 11 years old at no cost - as critics say it's a 'whole new level of awful for schools to be involved' Schools in Seattle are offering free 'gender affirming care' to students as young as 11, a prominent parental rights organization has found. Documents obtained by Parents Defending Education (PDE) this week reveal health centers at Meany Middle School and Nova High School are allowing students to 'conveniently' seek the treatment on-site and for free.. Nova Wellness's website does not specify what is meant by 'gender-affirming care'. The provider for the two centers, Country Doctor Community Health Centers (CDCHC) claims to offer hormone therapy and sex-change surgeries for adolescents. The facility's self-professed 'mission', according to its website, 'is to promote health in transgender, non-binary and gender diverse communities through ensuring equal access to gender-affirming medications and procedures.' Erika Sanzi, PDE director of outreach, fumed about schools being involved in gender affirming care for children. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12291857/Seattle-public-schools-offer-gender-reaffirming-care-students-no-cost.html If this is true isn't this taking things a bit far? A school should be a place of learning not indoctrination. Your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister M Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) Incidentally, what happened to that story about a school kid who identified as a cat? At one point there was a flurry of activity on here about that, including media reports of the school “taking children who identify as horses out cantering and feeding strips of meat to those who consider themselves to be dinosaurs"! Kemi Badenoch demanded that Ofsted went into the school and observe what was going on.... Ofsted duly marched in to the school, and sadly for Badenoch, they gave Rye College a clean bill of health, with inspectors praising its “culture of kindness” as well as its handling of relationship and sex education. Bah humbug! Edited July 16, 2023 by Mister M 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zinger549 Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 You have too much time on your hands and you need to get out more 😁. It's an article in the Mail so probably best to take it with a pinch of salt. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue there, for anyone other than tabloid provocateurs and those who wanted to believe them for reasons many and varied, was not the nonsense about children identifying as various domesticated animals (the girl was clearly using that as a bit of incredulous hyperbole); the issue was with the teacher's apparent insistence, in the recording, that the pupil who questioned what she was being taught should go to a different school. I would look up the details of the argument I proposed then, but someone cried to the mod about similar questioning of ideology and the thread vanished in a puff of finger-wagging righteous indignation.

A lot of that article is 'here's what this place does, but we've no idea if it applies to schools but we're going to describe it in detail anyway'.
