I don't know why you guys hate on Elon. Should have the right to know what happening to their children. Schools shouldn't be hiding anything from the parents.
You mean the guy that mistreated his own daughter so bad after she came out as trans that she even changed her legal name just to not be associated with him in any shape or form? The guy who said "can't win them all" when asked about the topic? You mean you can't think of a reason why nobody likes that guy?
I hate to break it to you, but if a child tells the school before they tell their own damn parents, there's a reason for that.
In the case of abuse at home should the school tell the parents if the kids report it? Where do you draw the line for privacy and what difference does it make if the parents are aware their kid gos by different pronouns at school? Why do so many people look at kids like they are property…? And this is coming from someone who can’t stand being around kids most of the time…
You don't know why people hate on him???? Do you live under a rock?
Schools are often where abused kids are able to build trust with adults and actually talk about their home life. Sure there's plenty the school should inform the parents of but some things could do serious damage. If they aren't already, teachers should be getting training on when and how to make that judgement call
"You're a pedophile."
For the inevitable report the mods will get: this is directly quoting Elon Musk accusing a volunteer trying to save lives of paedophilia just for disagreeing with him.
You are wrong. Students develop independent identity at school. Parents are not entitled to every detail of their child's life.
This is actually a misrepresentation of the law.
The law bans school districts from requiring teachers to report if students start experimenting with different pronouns.
Teachers can still report this to parents. There is nothing barring them from doing so. The only change is that they aren't policed by their school district.
Technically, this is actually the classically conservative position!
This whole thing is extremely stupid. Parents should take care of their own shit. You want to know what your kid is thinking? Talk to them. Demanding that the trusted adults in their lives who DO pay attention to them narc for you is a weak-ass move for parents who run to the nanny state to help them raise their kids because they don't know how to manage their own damn family life.
