Object: Schools 'Callous' Toward Parental Concerns Over Transgenderism
It is absolutely revolting that a he/she would make such a public spectacle

(AgapePress) - A newspaper columnist in Newton, Massachusetts, says school
officials in the town are insisting that elementary students be subjected to
classroom teaching on transgenders and transvestites.
Irish immigrant Emer O'Shea recently pulled her children out of Newton
schools after a social worker discussed the topic of sex-change operations
with third-grade students at Franklin Elementary. According to Newton Tab
columnist Tom Mountain, who first reported the story, as a result of the
talk on transvestites, O'Shea's eight-year-old daughter started having
nightmares and expressed concern that her sister may turn into a boy, or
that her mother may turn into a man.
Mountain says his understanding is that the social worker even took
advantage of a "teachable moment" during the class discussion.
"What the social worker told the kids was that, yes, it is possible for men
to have sex-change operations to become women," says Mountain. "And yes, by
the way, there is a student in the class who did have a father who become a
woman.
"What the social worker did say afterwards was that this was a teachable
moment because she had a student, an eight-year-old child, in the class
whose father was undergoing a sex-change operation," the columnist
continues. "If you can believe it, the child is actually still in the home."
According to the journalist, at least one transsexual parent has been very
visible in Newton classrooms, sometimes showing up at the school wearing a
mini-skirt, high heels "and other feminine attire" before he had a
sex-change operation.
"And I actually found out the other day that there's something called 'Royal
Reader,' whereby the parents will come into a particular classroom and talk
about and read a book to the children," says Mountain. "Well, in this
particular first-grade class, this transvestite-transsexual parent came in
and read a story to a classroom of six-year-olds."
Mountain says O'Shea confronted the school's principal, the school
superintendent, and the local mayor over the incident involving her
eight-year-old, but that they all treated her in a "very callous, rude
manner" and pushed aside her concerns.

Mine is in several places right now. Half of it is embedded in the
ceiling. Of the other half, about half of that melted and can't be
shifted from the desk it was on, while the other half has crawled away
under the piano and refuses to come out...

As opposed to you, the self-loathing closet gay who makes a public
spectacle daily...

This sort of 'education' does not belong in a classroom.

Not more not less than "the world was created in 7 days".

If you want to be taken seriously, how about using serious sources?

I'm just gonna go out on a limb here and say that this child has no
chance of being a normal adult and we'll leave it at that. Note to
parents: Be sure that your health insurance has good coverage for
psychiatric consultations, hospitalizations and meds.

Ah I see. The state should be taking away children from their parents
because they're going through gender reassignment...
Are those people for real? Maybe someone should take her daughter away
from that woman for child abuse (i.e. poisoning her mind with Christian
falsehoods).

*Gasp*. A story! What a monstrous human being. For someone to be
volunteering their own personal time to go read stories to children.
What has the world become?

Imagine that. Next thing you know, the school board will react
negatively to nazis having concerns about their kids being taught by
jews...

Evidently the author doesn't have a clue. Is this about
transgenderism or transvestites? Or don't the author and/or Jon know
the difference (or that there is a difference)?
