The mother of a transgender child told the Pearland school board Monday night that its policies create an intolerant atmosphere that promotes bullying and could endanger her daughter's life.
"You are increasing the risk of suicide among these children," said Kimberly Shappley, whose daughter Kai in the fall will enroll in kindergarten in the Pearland Independent School District.
The issue of bathroom accommodations for transgender students flared in this booming Houston suburb in May when the Pearland ISD superintendent, John Kelly, issued a statement decrying federal guidance that school districts should permit students to use bathrooms that conformed to their gender identity, even if it didn't match the gender on their birth certificate.

This headline tells me immediately that some parents need to be locked up for child abuse.
There is no such thing as a "transgendered" kindergartner without some sort of Munchausen Syndrome by proxy.
Child and parent needs intervention. Just because a kid one day decides to play or dress in opposite gender is no reason to encourage it, to do something stupid like this. The kid needs to be protected from its parents.

The father’s name can be found in the phone book, probably. Could be one of many names, most likely.
This mother should be in jail. 10-1 there’s no father in the home or he is a twisted lefty himself.
Someone take that poor kid away from this moron...
We are all special snowflakes now.

“You are increasing the risk of suicide among these children,”
She should be facing a mirror when she says that.
Bullshit.
It really isn't that difficult a concept; even kindergarten kids can understand it.
In his basement ‘safe space’, playing Pokemon Go.
A three year old has no concept of gender. This woman is nuts and her child is in danger (from her).
“There is no such thing as a “transgendered” kindergartner without some sort of Munchausen Syndrome by proxy.”
I never thought about it that way; you may be on to something.
When I was a kindergartner, I imagined myself to be a grizzly bear. I grew up and got over it.
