I think if I was a kid in these classes I'd be changing my "gender identity" every day just to fuck with admin. My name? Call me Nimrod. Next day? Nah I feel more like a Abumasamalachkakakaklapaotu.

Hmm how about Xyyzxzccbsbxxxxxythaniel.

Of course it's deeply hurtful for me to see one of my dead names on the seating chart. Better get at it? What you just called my identity a joke? Well shit that's a discrimination complaint I'm filing against you. Why don't I call out my fellow classmates for deadnaming me? Well it's because they aren't in a position of authority over me obviously so I don't feel personally attacked. But you're the teacher and your refusal to accept my true identity as Zicklebrackthanielstannamepoopoohapakakalalapooloozanabolaniggerkikefagnaziterfstaniel the third, well that's so hurtful that I might have to commit stochastic suicide and delete my social media accounts.

11 year olds don’t think like that, and in my experience children of primary/elementary school age crave attention from their teachers putting the teacher in a very powerful position - hence why I think these grooming teachers should be fired because they have a class of children predisposed to wanting their attention and to please them, it’s a fucking dangerous thing and something that any teacher that actually cares about children would be very wary of.

Oh and one of your super pronouns broke the thread by being too long….you monster!

I agree. I am a monster. My spirit animal is Oscar. And I am grouch gendered. My pronouns are fuck/off.

And yes agree completely keeping secrets from the parents is a definite no. If the kid is in actual danger from the parents there's proper procedures for that, but if the teachers actually believed the students were in real danger from the parents they wouldn't be sending them home with "let's keep your pronouns a secret" without being woefully and critically incompetent and deserving of being sacked. They'd be calling CPS or the equivalent in Canada and getting them involved.

Clearly they're idea of "danger" is that the parents might not accept the identity? Oh no! Who gives a shit. My parents don't accept my identity when I came out to them as an artist instead of a doctor boo hoo.

There are situations where there might be actual danger but even then, that's not a reason to keep secrets. Will a parent kill or physically abuse their own child for being LGBT whatever? Sure that can happen, but the issue is the physical violence and not the identity or it's acceptance of it or not.

It's the whole "people have to accept me or I'll kill myself" BS emotional terrorism. You're going to kill yourself because someone called you he instead of she? Ok. I'm going to kill myself if you don't give me $100. Do that and I'll call you whatever you want to be called boss.
