Over 40 Families Pull Children from School That Forced Transgender Lesson on 5-Year-Olds: "Will Homeschool if They Have To"

Lianne Laurence : Sep 22, 2017  LifeSiteNews

Americans are rather famous for democratically tolerating things they may not agree with, but political correctness advocates seemed to have crossed a "red-line" and are now facing a push back. Bottom line: "Don't mess with our kids."

(Rocklin, CA) — [Lifesitenews.com] Forty-one families pulled 73 children from the elite Sacramento-area Rocklin Academy charter schools as the board continues to defend a kindergarten transgender lesson several parents say traumatized their 5-year-olds and that parents weren't told about beforehand.

A mother who pulled her son from Grade 6 and daughter from Grade 3 at Rocklin Academy Gateway, where the incident took place, has kept a tally of parents who've done likewise.

"It was just the tipping point for most families," the parent, who asked her name not be published, told LifeSiteNews.

Some parents pulled their kids "solely for this," while other had "multiple reasons, but yes, this was part of everyone's reason," she said.

The controversy erupted after a lesson in which the boy appeared in girl's clothes and was reintroduced to his kindergarten classmates as a girl.

Teacher Kaelin Swaney also read the pro-transgender "I am Jazz" during the lesson, which took place just before summer vacation.

A number of parents are upset because they weren't told about the lesson that has left their children disturbed and afraid they, too, will "change" into the opposite sex.

Moreover, it's still not clear what happened in the classroom because Swaney and the board refused to tell parents, and the board's account differs from what a number of parents say their five-year-olds told them, the parent told LifeSiteNews.

What appear to be "inaccuracies" in the board's accounts "make us feel betrayed as parents," she said.

The board and administration "didn't talk to the parents of the children in the class to get the story."

The Rocklin Academy school board countered that it didn't have to tell parents about lessons on gender identity because it wasn't sex education. California law requires parental notification and allows opt out for sex education.

Moreover, the board claims not affirming the five-year-old boy's transition to a "girl" will leave it open to lawsuits because California bans discrimination based on gender identity and expression.
