    Ironically, the majority of homosexuals are not on board with the new insanity. Why would you obfuscate gender identity with homophobia?

    Kids are young and impressionable or “young and dumb” if you have the skin for it. There is a reason parents are legally responsible for their children and their actions. It is why parental consent is a thing for almost everything else.

    Reminds me of this

    It's not what you can take with you,

    It's what you leave behind.

    So people can teach thier children thier beliefs at home but also to teach them to respect others, this is not the only place that attribute will benefit them in life and may be one (of many) reasons we have such disrespectful children. As much as I hate the saying it is a great early teachable moment. We are making more out of this than needed and honestly dealing with it in this fashion will better prep them for things they will face in the workplace and not end up fired because of some word they don't like saying. Just seems ignorant all the way around and making something out of nothing for political leverage.

    If we as parents do not have the most influence over the development of our kids then WE are doing something wrong.

    14 year old kids been taking guns to school for a while…along with 15-18 year olds. Something has changed in the past 15-20 years

    Truth be told there’s fewer guns going to school now that what there was in the past. It was nothing to take a shotgun to school and then go hunting after, now you don’t dare for fear of expulsion.

    now I understand that this was more of a rural thing than an urban one but it happen at both.

    Their generals have refused that order in the past and hopefully would in the future.

    I agree that it is ridiculous, but I think the whole grammar thing is a cop out. Unless you are ok with a he being called a she, and the grammar thing is what truly bugs you, but I am going to go out on a limb and say that is not the true reason it bothers you. Then when these weak arguments start popping up, I feel like it puts our whole stance in question.
