As far a toilets are concerned - I really find it hard to understand the problem here.

If I were to dress and otherwise act like a girl, enter a girls toilet, and only do what people do in toilets - I see little problem as NO ONE KNOWS.

Last time I checked, we don’t have a guard who ensures what equipment we are bringing in. IOW, don’t ask don’t tell (and don’t be stupid) would cover a vast majority of these situations.

Changing rooms / showers and such are, of course, an entirely different matter.

This has NOTHING to do with just letting people lead a “normal” life. The insignificant minority wants to force the rest of us to accept and condone something we find repugnant.

These parents are harming their children by indulging their kids delusions.

If a mentally ill child thinks she (he? it?) is a penguin, that does not mean the rest of us need to join in the delusion.

My thoughts exactly. These parents are dangerous and their ‘gender’ manipulated children will never know the joy of understanding that they are “wonderfully and intentionally” created.

Gender is not a "socially constructed" - "choice" - it's biology.

XX, XY, Other.

Which is it?

all students deserve equal access to a safe, welcoming school and a high quality education no matter who they are.”

No, they don't. Public education, such as it is, is provided as a service, not a right, and it is provided under laws, rules and norms of the greater society around it. We do not suspend laws regarding murder, theft, or assault because an individual is a student and we must not indulge the delusions of a tiny sliver of society. Medical science is unequivocal: one cannot change sex or gender or biology or anatomy. It is an inherent trait.

Check their DNA that will tell you what is going on in its body. What is going on in their head is your problem. Quit trying to blame society for your problem.

Instead, charge the parents with child abuse. No more of this ‘gender identity’ BS.

A boy says he feels like a girl. HOW DOES HE KNOW WHAT THAT FEELS LIKE???

This is a 10th amendment issue if I ever heard one. Matters like this should be handled by the Special Education administrator of any local school calling the shots and working with the school staff to implement whatever decisions are made regarding bathroom usage issues of any students approved of getting “special needs” attention. If the parents (or any of the students/staff) don’t like the decision then they should be able to seek redress through due process & protection of the privacy of the minors involved.

What should Trump do on this? Refer the parents’ groups to his wife on her anti-bullying campaign and the proper federal Education department office on Special Education. Also he should express his sympathy for the plight of all people with special needs and remind all that the key for America being able to support their progress and quality of life depends on us making America Great Again and in ensuring that we have strong communities free from federal government overreach. Furthermore, he should express his opinion that each and ever local/State government worker should sincerely care about the well-being of all people and stop any corruption.

This is not a presidential issue

Take it up with your state

I agree.

The misguided, low-information Human Rights Campaign evidently does not understand the following. The only rights that the feds can protect are those rights which the states have amended the Constitution to expressly protect, politically correct, vote-winning LGBT “rights” not among those enumerated rights.
