Great. So now kids don't have the right to stay in the closet if they don't feel safe at home.

Conservatives fundamentally don’t believe that school is an alternate space contrasted with home. They ignore the reality that most abuse happens in the home and think of children as property. Meanwhile for some kids school may be the place they feel safe or comfortable enough to reveal some aspect of themselves they keep hidden at home. All of this is lost on the Trump administration which is just reacting against the existence of trans people in general.
