    Parents shouldn’t get absolute dominion over a human being just because. At some point society is also raising and protecting all children.

        Is this a serious reply?

        “Who from society” would be people like the child’s teachers, counselors, friends, relatives, mentors, etc.

        Funny you mention red-herrings and extremes and then go on to talk about how we’ll all be living under a Saudi-like dictatorship if teachers don’t snitch on kids to their parents about something like personal identity.

          No. Absolutely fucking not. Full stop. My child, my choices. Period. End of story? Don’t like it? Pound sand.

            No it’s “absolutely fucking not” a serious reply? I suspected as much.

              When people have conversations involving making decisions concerning my child on my behalf, the actual reply is much more violent.

                Good for you I guess? How many times has that landed you in jail so far?

                  This only appears to just be ramping up now. I really do think this is not a policy that any political party should be pushing, lest they find themselves the target of like minded people like myself. People wonder why homeschooling is becoming more prevalent. It’s shit like this.

                    I get the feeling I’m talking to a bot with these canned responses that don’t address my comments nor the OP. Thanks for making yourself easy to identify. See ya later!
