'We went to see our daughter get a school prize and it was handed to a boy called Tommi': SUE REID hears a mother's heartbreaking story of how teachers kept her in the dark over her 14-year-old's transition
Daily Mail ^ | April 9, 2024 | Sue Reid

Patricia and Michael were bursting with pride that their 14-year-old daughter was in line for an essay-writing prize at her annual school awards ceremony.

They arrived early to get seats with a good view of the event, held at the end of the summer term two years ago.

The couple were already aware that the large secondary school in northern England was a proud champion of the trans-rights lobby charity Stonewall, with posters celebrating 'LGBTQ+ diversity' plastered over the entrance hall. But nothing could have prepared them for what happened that day.

To their shock, the child who received the prize was not their daughter Tania who had left home that morning.

Instead, a young figure in grey trousers with fair curly hair, slicked back by gel, appeared when the headteacher called up a 'Tommi' to the platform.

It soon dawned on the middle-class couple what was happening.

'My daughter had changed her name and her pronouns,' Patricia said yesterday. 'At school, she was living as a boy and no one had told us.

'The teachers were supporting her life-changing decision. Some staff celebrated our daughter's changed identity behind our backs.'

A few had offered to put her in touch with their own adult transgender friends. She had, we discovered, become the school's poster child for inclusivity and diversity.

'At one stage her picture with her new name "Tommi" was displayed by teachers in the school as a fine example of a transgender pupil's success story.'

Almost all Tania's friendship group, who she speaks to online, are transgender. Most of her teachers are Stonewall supporters.

And the alphabet soup Nazis will shout till they're breathless that this is not a result of a social contagion. This is also what "tolerance" gets you. There is no group who is better at "giving an inch, take a mile" than these queers.

And they sent their daughter to live on campus at a prep school run by freaks anyway.

Cry me a river.

Britain must have the stupidest, laziest, most ignorant and incompetent parents in all of Western Civilization. Besides America's black population, of course.

They deserve what they get until they snap out of it and FIGHT their government and chop their heads off on live TV

And thus, the child got the attention IT was craving.

Almost every single one of these cases are simply youngsters who want attention, and these days, this will do the trick quite easily.

There are, of course, several exceptions possible, like genetic defect or abused minors, but by and large, right now, it’s a fad that gets people attention.

If it was my kid I would have known.

If not there would be some school personnel afraid for their lives.

We have a Systemic Child Sex Grooming Crisis,
and our nation must start protecting our children from
their ever present predators, with a great deal more seriousness.

We are only just beginning to see the consequences of our lack of vigilance,
active oversight, and steadfast unity in the face of such evil.

You don’t wish to have a video/picture posting pissing contest with me about this, especially with the sides we picked? Really? Do you really want me to spend literally 9 days of cutting and pasting links for every six pictures you put up?

Another episode of “Britain vs. Children.” This can be compared to permitting British girls to be serially raped by Muslim men to avoid charges of “Islamophobia.”
