Two Christian families have filed a lawsuit against two teachers, a principal and the Encinitas Union School Board in California for requiring their fifth-grade sons to participate in classroom instruction aimed at kindergarteners on the topic of gender ideology.
Having already encountered gender ideology material back in May as part of the fifth-grade health class program at La Costa Heights Elementary School, both families were notified in advance of the lesson and were able to opt their children out. However, when almost identical instruction was incorporated into the “Kinderbuddy” program—a mentorship program intended to foster healthy relationships between fifth-graders and kindergartners—no advance notification was offered, and parents had no chance to opt out their children.
As part of the Kinderbuddy program, the fifth-graders were instructed to meet with their kindergarten “buddy” and watch a video based on the book titled My Shadow Is Pink, in which a young boy questions his gender.

I’m so glad my kids grew up before this madness started…
Anyone?
For all you enlightened people that think Satan is imaginary, this is more living proof that he the anti-god-Satan, is alive roaming about the earth, seeking whom ever he and his Democrat friends can devour. This is pure evil, spreading awful behavior, passing it off as normal, even worse, if you disagree, you are a hater that must be silenced.(comma splices noted)
Didn’t have to when I was in school; most of my teachers WERE pedophiles and what I call “poop in a suit”.
It really started in USA when heterosexual immorality (fornication, adultery,swinging, etc.)became mainstream, accepted, and even celebrated.
“As in the days of Noah…”
Same here.
I have heard that a lot.
Shouldn’t be too hard to find out who is promoting this & to stop him/her. Of course there has to be an urge to WANT to stop them.
