gender dysphoria is a medical condition, and they should all be SUED for practicing psychiatry without a license...
>> in loco parentis (in place of the parent)
Providing it’s not a Nun correcting bad behavior....
Appreciated, but I don’t recall signing any agreements that surrendered my parental authority. And this implicit ‘in loco parentis’ standing certainly doesn’t grant matters of sexuality — thus, the predators they’ve proven themselves to be.
Fair point, about in loco parentis not extending to pronouns, but that legal doctrine was the nose under the tent. Parents were totally fine letting the public schools govern their children from 7:30-3pm for YEARS.
Further, much of this is like complaining that terrorists don't abide by the law. We are dealing with a well-organized opposition that has the ACLU, education, and the MSM on their side. Frankly, they planted the seeds for this takeover years ago, with in loco parentis serving as the bedrock.
Parents can try to fight, by moving to Florida, getting involved in the local districts, and so on. However, there will be sleeper cells of leftist educators who, as these articles point out, believe they have an ETHICAL responsibility to the kids, and not the parents, to keep pronouns etc hidden. That fight will drag on for weeks if not months. Meanwhile, the children are damaged.
MacArthur returned, but only after he left Corrigedor. Children should not be chess pieces. Pull them out NOW - it'll hurt the districts' funding in the short run, and parents can reclaim their family post haste.
“I hate to tell you this, but the moment parents signed on to the public school standing in loco parentis, they surrendered a big chunk of their “rights.”
No. Loco parentis does not in any way grant the school the authority to meddle in a student’s personal life. Loco parentis only grants the authority to discipline and protect the child.
I’m pretty sure 100% of parents are aware of their children’s gender status. They might not be aware of their kids’ fantasies instigated by perverted teachers.
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania disagrees with you.
A. In Loco Parentis
1. Teachers, Guidance Counselors, Vice Principals and Principals in the public schools have the right to exercise the same authority as a parent, guardian or person in parental relation to such pupil concerning conduct and behavior (emphasis added) over the pupils attending a school during the time they are in attendance, including the time required in going to and from their homes.
2. School authorities’ ability to stand in loco parentis over children does not extend to matters beyond conduct and discipline during school, school activities, or on a conveyance as described in the Safe Schools Act providing transportation to or from school or a school sponsored activity.
Show me where the disagreement is.
Define behavior and conduct.
