EL CERRITO, Calif. (AP) In some ways, Rainbow Day Camp is very ordinary. Kids arrive with a packed lunch, make friendship bracelets, play basketball, sing songs and get silly. But it is also unique, from the moment campers arrive each morning.
At check-in each day, campers make a nametag with their pronoun of choice. Some opt for "she" or "he." Or a combination of "she/he." Or "they," or no pronoun at all. Some change their name or pronouns daily, to see what feels right.
The camp in the San Francisco Bay Area city of El Cerrito caters to transgender and "gender fluid" children ages 4 to 12, making it one of the only camps of its kind in the world open to preschoolers, experts say. Enrollment has tripled to about 60 young campers since it opened three summers ago, with kids coming from as far as Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. - even Africa. Plans are underway to open a branch next summer in Colorado, and the camp has been contacted by parents and organizations in Atlanta, Seattle, Louisiana and elsewhere interested in setting up similar programs.

Around a year ago, in the course of my work, I had to introduce two transgendered college ages students to each other. Prior to the introduction, neither knew the other person was also transgendered.
They both assumed the other to be the opposite gender the gender they elected.
On the inside, I laughed and laughed a lot.
These parents are abusing their children. How pathetic.
Yeah, that's normal.
I wonder when they will have a day camp for kids who identify as blind or as amputees and seek to maim themselves, or who think they are God. I don't see any difference.
The Center for Transyouth Health and Development at Childrens Hospital in Los Angeles, started a decade ago with about 40 patients, now has over 900 people, ages 3 to 25, enrolled in its program, with 150 on its waiting list, said Johanna Olson-Kennedy, the clinics medical director.No. This is pure evil.
I just think theres a lot more openness to the understanding that trans adults start as trans kids, Olson-Kennedy said. When people say, Isnt this too young? my question back to them is, Too young for what? How young do people know their gender? The answer to that is some people know it at 3, and some people know it at 30.
We can certainly identify this as abuse. We’re so far astray, however, that even our ideas of normal aren’t even close to the righteousness of God.
Brainwashing the next generation is a terrible thing to do.
Hello Muddah, its your daughtah
That you sent here to Camp Prada;
Camp is very entertaining,
But they say well have to undergo retraining.
I went hiking with Joe Cooley,
Only now Joe goes by Julie;
You remember Leonard Skinner--
Hes now Lena, and they took his fidget spinner.
All the counselors hate my gender,
Say I just need to surrender;
So they coach us to be sissies,
And they say we must sit down when we go piss, please.
Every morning we play soccer,
Then we take a hormone blocker;
You remember Jeffrey Hardy--
Theyre about to make him have a mermaid party.
Take me home, Im not your daughtah!
Take me home, I hate Camp Prada!
Dont leave me here in this prison where
I must wear scrunchies in my hair.
Take me home, I promise I will not make noise
Or mess the house with other boys;
Oh please dont make me stay--
They make us do ballet.
I know, Muddah, ywanna daughtah,
And a son is such a bothah;
But I promise, I wont kid ya,
I would even watch a chick flick and sit wid ya.
Wait a minute, theres more campers,
Lots of real girls to teach us manners;
Wow, theyre pretty! Gee, that's bettah!
Dearest Muddah, kindly disregard this lettah!
This is an actual Associated Press article.
The state of our media in 2017.
Four year old kids like to pretend they are ponies or puppies. Are they going to mahe them wear little leashes or put bits in their mouths too? No that’s not part of the agenda of turning children into sexual objects.
Transgenderism is not about how children feel about themselves, it’s about how homosexual people feel about children.
This is more cruel than a camp for paralyzed kids where the counselors preach that they’re going to walk and romp and play again, just like all the other kids, if they just believe in themselves, and each week they fit the kids for football cleats.
The kids are innocent. Teach them how to deal with their mental disorder compassionately and let them know that no amount of modern science will make them magically ‘whole’ in a different gender. Boys will never have wombs and develop ovaries, girls will never develop testes. Don’t lie to them.
Tribute to one of my favorite silly songs.
You know that the true number of gay and lesbo people is greatly inflated. What is it something like .03 percent of the general population? If that. With that in mind the number of truly trans-sexual is what, even smaller than that number?
And here we are being forced to cow tow to an entire nation to what amounts to a truly insignificant number of troubled individuals.
Word of warning - my math may be incorrect but my sentiment is correct.
People who can reason with their brains please step forward.
Offsetting the jobs lost to automation, were gonna need a LOT of therapists...

By the picture, I’m seeing boy-boy-boy-boy-boy-boy-boy-boy-boy, so what the heck are we talking about here?
Brilliant! Allan Sherman smiles down upon you, Reverend!
