I Asked My Daughter’s Teachers Not to Call Her a Boy.... They Reported Me to Social Services [UK]
The Daily Mail (UK) ^ | 1/17/23 | Jill Foster

Like many parents on a Sunday evening, Patricia Chalmers was busy checking for unwashed sports kit in her 14-year-old daughter’s school bag when she discovered something rather perplexing.

Crumpled up inside was a letter from her teacher regarding a project. While the contents made sense, Patricia was confused by the name — it was addressed to Lex Chalmers. Her daughter’s name is Esme.

‘Instinctively, I suspected something was wrong but I waited until next morning before I phoned the school,’ says Patricia, a 49-year-old mother-of-two from Swindon.

‘Esme had been dressing differently for months, no longer wearing the skirts or dresses she’d loved when she was younger and was instead wearing baggy hoodies and jeans. She’d chopped off her long hair into a short crop. I was absolutely fine with it. She’s a teenager. She can dress how she wants.

‘But I’d also discovered she was ordering chest binders (which flatten the breasts) and I was worried she’d hurt herself.

‘I’d read up on gender identity and reassured her she could be as gender non-conforming as she wanted, but I wasn’t going to let her harm her body. She was still developing. So, I wondered if the change of name was connected to this.’

When she phoned her daughter’s co-educational state secondary school, the receptionist claimed the name change ‘must be a mistake’.

Maybe Russia will nuke what used to be Europe and what used to be the USA.

I’m starting to not care.

Have to ask by what insanity have the powers that be decided all these kids are not “really” their gender, or should be allowed to change their names and pick a new gender?

Because it’s absolutely insane.

Yeah this is how some of you jackoffs think.

This story is about transgenderism in England .

And you’re still going on about your own fantasy that Prince Valiant Putin of Russia is some avenging angel for social conservatives.

If you don’t care anymore why don’t you just go to hell.

Because you sure aren’t suggesting any solutions.

I don’t mind if Russia gets nuked too.

And heck, if it doesn’t get done by them, then maybe the ChiComs will do it.

Thought I could find some useful blasting away at the idiots on the left.

This thread has already devolved into talking about Russia and whatnot.

Russia has nothing to do with this. Stay on topic and flame the left folks!

Ok, what suggestions do you have when the full weight of Western governments are getting behind this nonsense in an ever increasing fashion?

As an educator, I can see this nonsense spreading through public schools in the US like wildfire (even in states that you would think are “socially conservative”. The pressure is undoubtedly to humor/encourage gender-exploration among youth.

And while I don’t wish for the nuking of anyone, I sure as hell would like to see nations that are pushing this stuff taken down a peg or two.

I don’t think those cretins pushing this garbage on our youth are even human beings.

Obviously, citizens have to take over school boards, the Democrat party has to be defeated, and conservatives need to take over institutions including media and education.

Foreign adversaries aking a country “down a peg” is not a solution to stupid social behavior.

And then there is Biblical prophecy. That is the only answer I need. So when things like this come to pass, I am not only not surprised, but I expect these things from a fallen society.

And I am one day closer to hearing that Trumpet.

If this response is confusing, open up the Bible for proper understanding.

And I will also chalk up any anti-Christian response to this comment as further examples to prove my point, that we are in the last days of the Church Age Dispensation.

And if you think it’s bad now, wait until after the Rapture takes place.

When I tell a worker what tho do I tell him what to do

When I have people in the house fixing things delivering things, they do the right job or I don’t pay and I don’t re hire them

Any teacher works for me as a parent. My kids were always aware of the order involved.

Kids know naturally tgat anyone taking care of them, in charge of their education etc, was working for me

Tge kids always told me about their day

One stopped talking to Mae after I TOLD the principal I wanted a particular out of order procedure the teacher was doing, stopped

Tge teacher -in trouble- threatened the child. The child did not tell me about the day. Silence on the way home

Out. The parents I’d befriended in tgat class of 22 a ‘blue ribbon’ school, whatever that meant, were astonished with me

I took a week and found an adequate alternative school. I did the same again during another circumstance

i don’t comprehend this language, ‘I asked the person who works for me to please refrain from abusing my child’

Americans - will they ever get a frikin clue that they run their free country? Or will they continue allowing the rulers
To turn it into an abusive communist dictatorship?

South Dakota is a prime example of what is happening. Remembering how the nice conservative governor vetoed the bill forbidding young men from joining young women’s sports teams?

She is in the pocket of SD’s largest employer Sanford Health.

“Health.” Sanford wants to get in on all the medical money created by medicalized trans people and don’t give a hoot if they are underage.

So the medical companies and pharma push down on this trans stuff and the schools —useful idiots if not worse— push it onto the kids.

I await the time when they are all getting their pants sued off so they and this malevolence will stop.

“Maybe Russia will nuke what used to be Europe and what used to be the USA. I’m starting to not care.”

I made a joke about yesterday goading Russia into hitting DC, since we’re now going to target Moscow.

Should have seen the Neocon Supporters here go nuts at the idea of seeing DC getting spanked. Says a lot about them.

I’ve been the same gender since birth.
My pronoun is dick because I have one and am one.

Not sure why today’s youth can’t figure it out.
