To all those who just don't get it!

*Scenerio for you* If a child was going into school as a boy (say 8 year old) let's call him Sam. Then say six months later he turned around and said he wanted to dress as a girl and be called Sarah. All his friends and peers have ONLY ever known him as Sam. Now you tell me how a school/ teachers then explain that to a classroom of 30+ children who are 7/8 years old? Then to a school of say 600 children who have 4/5 years olds in reception? WITHOUT causing confusion??? Love to hear how anyone here questioning my concerns, would tackle that situation to ensure EVERY child can FULLY understand how, why, Sam has changed!?

You know what happens when kids learn trans people exist? They go 'oh' and just get on with their lives. Kids can have transgender siblings, cousins, friends of family, parents and even grandparents. What is with this weird idea that kids have no exposure to reality outside of school?

But you know that. This isn't about kids. This is about making sure Sarah commits suicide before adulthood.

@CountScrofula no, you don't understand. Every 4 year old at school needs to know that "Sam" is now "Sarah" without getting "confused" (even though they never heard of Sam before either lmao), otherwise... all trans people are invalid, I guess.

@CountScrofula Clearly not read my replies. Where have I said she shouldn't be accepted? I detest bullying of all forms. Shame people online choose to bully rather than be open to differing views, outlooks and experiences.

@Lanie78 Okay, so what do you propose be done with Sarah?

Lanie78 · 41-45, F

@CountScrofula She should be allowed to carry on in whichever makes her feel happy. I haven't said otherwise.

@Lanie78 And the school does what?

@CountScrofula Perhaps take a look at @HannibalAteMeOut reply. They've a very sensible approach to the situation.
