It's also overlooked that the overwhelming majority of parents want what's best for their children, like 99.9999%. Most of the parents going along with the trans stuff are doing it because they are being tricked by doctors saying things like "you can have a trans son or a dead daughter". They don't know anything about trans ideology beforehand and then freak out. A lot of those women saying the parents should not be informed are operating under that hyperbolic suicide narrative and think the parents are literally trying to kill the poor trans kids by disagreeing with the dogma.

The worst part is, even THAT narrative would dictate the "tell the parents" thing: If you have really groomed a kid into thinking they're trans, the last step would be "let the parents know so they can transition" fact, since the final aspect is "let them know, let the doctors/teachers/groomers play the "trans son or dead daughter" thing, and let the fact that every parent's worst fear in life is having to bury their baby will make the parent cave.
Parents should be informed. Especially in cases where the kids are actually "out" in class and requesting everyone use specified pronouns or names or whatnot. The kid is already public with it and keeping secrets from the parents are never good.
About the only point where I don't think it's a good idea to just up and tell the parents about it is when the kid is just making offhand comments that they don't "feel" like the right gender or something, kids get confused or swept up with trends easily, the teacher shouldn't encourage it either, but by simply reporting that sort of thing to the parents when it isn't necessary I could see it leading to a bunch of red tape mandatory reporting conditions for teachers that might alert parents to a problem that doesn't really exist, and for every strict parent that will shut that down harshly you might not want to know about it, there's probably some bleeding heart hippie parent who will jump at the chance to support their trans kid and push the kid into a transition. Personally I think the best way to go about it is to just drop the concept of "gender" from school entirely. Locker rooms and the like are assigned by sex only. Few exceptions may be made for intersex conditions. If the kid wants to wear the opposite sex clothing or uniform? Whatever, let them I guess. Parents will know about that pretty quickly. Leaves the school out of it.

And let's face it: it's Munchausen mom's who are the main driving force for this thing outside of the troons.
Of course the people in favor of this don't want parents to know, that's a risk of a dissenting influence taking hold over those malleable young minds that they're so desperate to shape and control.
But what really got me in this article was this bit:
Young women aged 18-34 are the group most likely to say in this recent poll that “parents should neither be informed nor have a say – it’s up to the child,” but that’s only 24% of that group.
I'd like to see how many of the men who were polled support this, but I find it incredible that roughly a quarter of the women polled support it. Another reminder that, while AGP MtFs might be the most visible examples of this sort of degeneracy in action, it's a startling number of women that are elevating them into that spotlight to begin with.
Yeah, I know a lot of women in their 30s and 40s who are aggressively pro-trans. The impression I get from them is that it's a type of mid-life crisis/desperate attempt to be "down with the kids" as opposed to old. Their heads are going to explode when/if the younger generations start to reject this shit en masse.
I'm a woman in the upper end of that age range and I'm definitely not shocked. A lot of my peers are aggressively pro-trans, which surprises me because of how TRAs talk about/treat women.
Most women in that age range act like children themselves and since the social consensus that they encounter online tells them that trans kids need to be protected and shit, they just go along with it.
Blows a massive hole in the "it's only a fringe minority" that are gender-critical narrative.
Now they have to pivot to "parents' rights are a human rights violation."
Another article suggests it's about 14% of respondents who say schools should hide their grooming form kids' parents.
To that I say; Parents' Rights Are Human Rights!
So surprised.
Its amazing just how much time you transphobes spend reading and watching other transphobes and copying them i have t seen a single original thought on this whole site yet, just parrots in a circle. Am i gay or trans? Nope. Do i get bent outta shape when i see em out in public? Also no. Let em live their lives however they want to. Thats the whole point of america. Yall are like 'im mad at yer existence!' Like its somehow affecting you at all. Yall cite made up articles and polls and just keep passing this crap amongst yourselves as if its some kinda provable fact. Its not. None of this shit is fact. Just your feelings and fears on full display. Aint nobody telling you not to fuck yer goats and sisters, why do you think you get the right to lord over anyone else? The biBle? Like any of yall ever actually READ or comprehend any bit of that fairy tale nonsense. Naw, yall are just here tugging each others cocks and gigglefarting in the corner. If you wanna be trans, just do it and stop pretending your google searches are just 'research' and not tutorials.
To be fair, it's not entirely their fault. The LGBT movement is led by whacko SJWs who want to be big brother, and they give people a ton of excuses to fear anyone who's gay or trans. What they do is designate "oppressed" and "oppressor" groups, and pit them against each other because they think there isn't room for both. Ironically making themselves oppressors. They are incapable of seeing individual people, they only see groups. If I didn't turn out to be a tranny myself I'd probably at least be weary of trannies too, thanks to them. In fact they held me back from figuring it out, because their "social construct" crap flies in the face of everything I've suffered. And it's legit offensive when they glorify being trans and insist there's nothing wrong with me. I've been through all this pain, will be stuck getting constant treatment and it'll still never work very well, of course it's something wrong. They're just going to invalidate that? Except me to be happy about it or get canceled? THAT is hate. We have all these Tumblr users who think this is all a cute quirk where they tell everyone their pronouns and dress exotically, and make up a million fake genders, and insist that it's the best thing ever and if you don't agree you're transphobic. I'd like all of them to spend a day in my shoes. If all you're worried about is pronouns, you're not suffering from the trans, you're like those self-diagnosed people who claim to have autism and ADHD and anxiety but clearly don't. I have so much worse things to worry about than what other people think of me. And they're quite sexist, seeing as they blur the lines between trans and people who aren't stereotypical for their gender. They think gender is an identity. You see all these trans women "transitioning" by painting their nails and wearing spinny skirts, like you don't fucking have to be a woman to do those things, even though society will judge you for it. And activists convince all these girls to be trans if pink isn't their favorite color or something. These SJWs need to realize they're making a MOCKERY of me and dismissing all my suffering, and catering to people who mock me and infantilize my horrific condition, and promote it! We need to work on eradicating this disease, not celebrating it. They're celebrating something that claims the lives of 41% of its victims, and that's counting all the tumblr pronoun people. It's messed up. They don't care about me, they're trying to make me a vehicle in their pointless war against "white Christian men".

Do you have something on-topic to contribute?
Ya. If youre scared of trans and gay folk, youre a fag.
I don't think "scared" is the right word. More like a combination of pity and disgust, like when you walk past someone on fentanyl who is sleeping standing up.
You think gay and trans peeoole are the same as fentanyl addicts? How does one even make that equation? Is it a hatred because of political, social or religious spongeheaddedness? Or do you understand the horror of being confined to a body that feels wrong? Cuz the second one... ya i get it. Imagine waking up from an accident or in an evil scientists lair to discover your head was transplanted onto the body of your opposite gender... its not like your just say 'fuck it, i guess im a (whatever) now!'... youd be upset and doingwhatever you can to feel normal.
If its the first one... then you have some growing to do, both in brainly and humanly ways.
Trans is not a real thing. It's mental illness compounded by porn addiction and narcissism. Gay people are a different thing entirely.
Spoiler alert: every single person in the world feels uncomfortable with their body
Ah, yea, youre just a retard. You do flat earth, antivax, aliens, climate denying, and all that retard logoc too? You dont think trans is a real thing but youll jump on board with the magical bearded guy in the sky crap, right?
The earth is round, vaccines work, aliens I sure hope are real but who knows, climate change is real, God isn't, and I don't know what "retard logoc" is.
Transgenderism is a pathological mental disorder similar to any other extreme fetish behavior and it is only the narcissistic need to evade understanding that keeps trans people from admitting this. In the past it was not a sin to point out that cross-dressing has sexual motivations and if you find the right enclaves on Reddit they'll still admit it is the main drive of their transitions. In those same spaces you will see young men admit that their desires to transition vanish in their refractory periods; it is a fetish.
You write like theres a tube of Ivermectin in your dickhole. Why are you frequenting trans forums anyway? Projection? Fetish? Or do you just get all your info from Kevin Sorbo tweets?
It's cute how badly you want it to be true that people who disagree with you are all predictably stupid MAGA hicks. Not wanting to suffer perverts is universal and besides, most prominent anti-trans voices are educated lefties.
Ah, yea, youre just a retard. I feel pity for the people who have to interact with you every day. You do flat earth, antivax, aliens, climate denying, and all that retard logoc too? You dont think trans is a real thing but youll jump on board with the magical bearded guy in the sky crap, right?
None of this shit is fact.

I think the only parents who support this are the ones who already transfer their kids. I've never heard from a parent whose child socially transitioned at school without their knowledge and was happy about it.

Who cares? It's not about preference, it's about the legal standing of a parent. As a parent, you are the legal guardian of your child until they are of age. Unless they emancipate themselves or you lose custody, no one has a right to interfere with your parental rights. And any school that allows a teacher to interfere with those rights (barring obvious exceptions, which would demand police involvement), should fire that teacher. My god, can you imagine if we let straight teachers tell LBGT students they're wrong and they should bet straight, the school would be burnt to the ground.
