There will now be 1000's of adults, telling 100,000's of children adn young people, "told you so"!
@zleap @brosandprose many of those adults will be teachers
I substitute teach after retirement and high school boys would ask me what I thought of him I would say "There is not a jail sentence long enough or a cell small enough to truly give him what he deserves"
Then I would go back to the lesson.
I am retired and don't care if they tell their parents I am disrespectful of their opinion. In fact I would welcome a chance to discuss it with the parental units.
This is some of the reality of working in schools
@zleap @brosandprose I hated teaching sex ed. especially in a catholic school.
It was simple when I was at school, but now clearly more complex or seems that way. I really think there was an over reaction, the context to this that this teacher, who normally teaches history was just stepping in.
So in this article we have 11 or 12 year old children with gender dysporia making a complaint that ruins the career of a dedicated teacher, over making a simple statement.
As an archaologist you excavate (which I think is probablyt the right term) a skeleton, look at the bones and try and work out if it belonged to a male or female.
@kimhoar @brosandprose
A simple sit down discussion could have probably solved the whole issue quickly.
On the other hand if kids want to play this way, perhaps we should report them for any offensive comment they make, and not back down.
Which would really in a lot of cases be OTT, could be solved by talking.
