It is a story that started when one dad asked his three sons who attend Southwest Elementary School in Howell a routine question: How was school today?
My son informed me there was a girl in the bathroom with him and the other kids in his class, said Matt Stewart.
He called the school. He asked why he wasnt given warning that there was a transgender child in the school, why parents didnt have a say on school policy, and what the options were to protect the privacy of his son.
Stewart didnt like the answers. He and his wife then decided to pull their three sons out of school.
As parents, we decided we were not going to force our children to make the decision between confusion, humiliation, and embarrassment, said Stewart.
So what does the school have to say? A school spokesperson gave 7 Action News a letter sent home to parents. It reads:
"As has been widely reported, on May 13, 2016, the United States Department of Justice and Department of Education issued significant guidance on the rights of transgender students. This involved the Departments interpretation of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, which is a statute prohibiting sex discrimination in educational programs or activities. Those Departments found that Title IX prohibits discrimination against students based on their transgender status.
With respect to restrooms, the government stated that transgender students must be allowed to access those facilities consistent with their gender identity. Any student who desires additional privacy in light of this directive may, however, make use of individual-user restrooms.
This is a new and rapidly developing area of law. Howell Public Schools intends to comply with its legal obligations in this, as well as all other, respects. Measures will, therefore, be implemented consistent with this guidance in a way which.......

Exactly and force the damn kid to look between his/her damn legs and use the right bathroom. Maybe they need a penis drawn on the boys/men’s room these days as the teachers are so dumb.
With respect to restrooms, the government stated that transgender students must be allowed to access those facilities consistent with their gender identity.
The end result of all this will be unisex bathrooms.
This is not law.
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, which is a statute prohibiting sex discrimination in educational programs or activities.

sex as in the biological determination of the persons body, not what he decides he wants to be today..
theres nothing in that law that covers “dreamers”
“So, instead of making the statistical anomaly use the private bathroom,”
I do not think that is what this is about. How do you identify someone who says that they “identify” as a different gender? Some leftist sites show 30 or more “genders”.
The only way this ends is with unisex bathrooms, where everyone can use any bathroom they wish, anytime.
That is the “change” being pushed. No sexual identity except “pan-sexual” (sex with anything and anybody anytime)
As a consequence of parents not making sure that their children are being taught about the federal governments constitutionally limited powers as the Founding States had intended for those powers to be understood, a situation that has been going on for many generations, please consider the following.
Neither abc News, the school, or the father of the children involved in this situation were able to argue the following simple points about the administrations politically correct INTRAstate restroom policy.
To begin with, the only sex-related right that the states have amended the Constitution to expressly protect deals with voting rights as evidenced by the 19th Amendment. And since the administrations policy clearly has nothing to do with voting rights, corrupt Congress has once again allowed the lawless Obama Administration administration to get away with interfering with 10th Amendment-protected state sovereignty as evidenced by the administrations unconstitutional intrastate restroom policy.
Next, note that the feds and several states are also ignoring that the Founding States had prohibited both the feds and the states from establishing protected / privileged classes as evidenced by the following constitutional provisions.
Article I, Section 9, Clause 8: No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States [emphasis added]: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.
Article I, Section 10, Clause 1: No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility [emphases added].
Remember in November !
When patriots elect Trump, they need to also elect a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that not only works within its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers to support Trump, but also puts a stop to unconstitutional federal interference with state sovereignty as evidenced by the Obama Administration's state sovereignty-ignoring policies.
Note that such a Congress will also probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices and judges.
This is not law.

The directive for schools came from executive branch.
Below are two threads for review:
43 Republicans Join Democrats to Support Obamas Transgender Agenda

Whereas last week Congress voted to reject this proposalknown as the Maloney Amendmentlast night they voted to ratify Obamas 2014 executive order barring federal contractors from what it describes as discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity in their private employment policies.
Final Betrayal:Ryan Republicans Join Obama as #ToiletTerrorists (Uses 43 Repubs to Help Obama)

The reality is that Paul Ryan has long been a supporter of ENDA (Employment Non Discrimination Act), the legislative vehicle for enshrining transgenderism into law and mandating adherence to its dogma on private businesses.
The bill was blown away today, thanks to the trans amendment.
Trans are not specifically addressed in any gay law. They are not a protected class.
hslda.org folks. Home schooling is easier than you think. And the kids actually LEARN. On-line classes, curriculum on discs, co-op ventures with other home school families.... and YES they get “socialization”!
The boys using urinals might be just a little modest about having a girl watching them - Ya think?
This is a new and rapidly developing area of law
This is a lie.
This is not law.
Courts have already ruled that Title IX does not apply here.
This is social engineering directed by he President not by laws established by Congress.
Unlwss your are the mental case with a psychotic kid.
Then you want to f the system so you look normal.
In other words “screw the kids, we have to protect our funding!”
Pull your kids out a school whenever possible.
Tax-funded centers of brainwashing.
This only has to happen a million more times
The first thing that had to be done was to sexualized the kids, which they’ve done through propaganda, media, sex education, etc. The next step is to make them gay, and then convince them that they can be any sex they want anytime they want. This is the depravity that moral relativism leads to.
I hope that this is the final straw that will destroy government education. It’s a massive failure and the worst thing that ever happened to the US. Privatize education at all levels, so parents can homeschool or choose what kind of private school they want for their children. Government schools and colleges are nothing more than propaganda mills for the leftists. When you see college professors teaching nonsense like “gender studies” or minority victimization classes, you know that colleges have little to do with real education.
Exactly. Transgender is fiction and the term shouldn’t even be used. Nobody is born in the “wrong” body. It’s absurd and a denial of reality.
I have this bad feeling that this transgender fiasco is just a diversion for something worse Obama has up his sleeve before he leaves office..
