I was a trans teacher (stealth, students and teachers didn’t know), and I did have a few students tell me that they were trans.
I asked them if they wanted me to call them by a different name or use different pronouns, and told them I would support them if were mistreated by other staff or administration and wanted my help. Truly evil indoctrination.
Like, what matters to me is that that homework has a name I recognize and give a grade for. Teachers are way too fucking busy to be indoctrinating your kids, especially the ones in hell hole red states (feeder middle school had 100+ kids in some classrooms - I remember being at a PD when someone asked how to adopt the activity for a stranding room only classsroom….)
I...
Did you say "standing room only" classrooms?
How? Moreover, how?
This is part of the defunding of education. 20 years ago my high school was wall-to-wall desks you had to squeeze to get to, and it's only gotten worse since then.
I always knew my high school was slightly fancy. Nothing extreme just, had decent facilities and decent groundskeeping, etc.
I never realised it was fancy for having under 40 kids in a class. This, at the same time as yours.
I promise myself to never to fall for that "kids these days aren't we good as we were" bullshit. Kids these days are going to need a lot of help. Maybe more than we can even give.
Kids these days are generally more intelligent but less well informed than kids in generations prior, in my observation.
Raise a reader like your life depends on it, has been my approach so far
I am on it 😇
Inspired by this thread, today I set up my kid's neglected bedroom Linux computer to read comic books off my media server and he's already obsessed. Woo!
🥳 that is awesome!
