Parents are being purposely excluded from multisexual issues in schools, as seen in mounting evidence from California school districts, the National Educational Association, and more.

“This is an effort to force parents out of the classroom. If it’s not this way in your school, it is only a matter of time before your school is confronted with efforts to exclude parents,” said Karen England, Executive Director of Capitol Resource Institute.

Kindergartners learn the definition of “gay,” “lesbian,” and “transgender.”

Students learn about different kinds of families, including kids raised by a mom and dad, grandparents, and same-sex parents. In all age groups, the multisexual message is being woven into everyday instruction.

State law now mandates that schools accept homosexual, bisexual, and transsexual behaviors. San Francisco Unified School District explicitly interprets state law to mean that the district does not need to notify parents about many multisexual discussions in school curriculum and activities.

In a website launched just this month, SFUSD wrote, “As long as human sexuality is not the focus of the discussion, parent notification is not required.” It claims a right to teach about same-sex romantic attraction, same-sex parenting, and much more -- starting in kindergarten.

“California leads the nation, and on this issue, San Francisco is leading California. Other school districts and influential organizations are pushing to follow the same path,” England said.

“Do you want San Francisco policy choices coming to your school district next?” she said.

The NEA issued standards for multisexual issues several years ago, which instruct school employees to “respect confidentiality.” “This includes not telling other colleagues or a student’s parents or guardians that someone has ‘come out’ to you without a specific reason,” it said.

“The NEA says that parents -- who brought these children into the world and care for them daily -- may ‘not react well’ and even throw their kids out of the house,” England said. “This is arrogance. It says schools have more right to know about students’ sexuality than parents.”

What if parents must be notified? School employees should attempt to “explore parents’ likely reaction with the student first.” “Come up with strategies for worst case scenarios. Do not blindside students by telling family members without their knowledge,” advised the NEA School Employee’s Guide to Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, & Transgender Issues.

“What a burden on teachers. They must call Bob ‘Betty’ at school, but woe to them if they slip and say ‘Betty’ in conversation with that child’s own parent,” England said.

People must understand this is not a fringe attitude. Parental exclusion is being officially, systematically pushed for the so-called “safety” of kindergarten to high school students.

“Educators want students to totally embrace ‘healthy attitudes’ on multisexuality, instead of outdated traditional values -- without getting parents knowing it,” England said.

The New Definition of Harassment: “I just feel offended”

AB 537 added sexual orientation and gender identity to the nondiscrimination provisions in California’s Education Code. San Francisco Unified School District and others interpret what this law means, as in a new website focusing on multisexual issues on the day to day level.

“If you find an action or use of language offensive/harassing then, it is,” SFUSD wrote on its website. “We all have a right to work and learn in safe environments.”

The problem with this is an apparent lack of protection for students and school employees who hold traditional values, if anyone finds those views offensive. What if a fifth grade student unintentionally “offends” a classmate by saying that he supports husband-wife marriage?

When someone is harassed, disciplinary procedures can range up to student expulsion or employee dismissal, according to the SFUSD Student and Parent/Guardian Handbook.

Many other districts also have policies banning harassment. As districts are pushed to implement laws like AB 537 and the more recent SB 777, look for more penalizing of traditional values.

Schools Cannot Tell Parents About Student Gender Changes

Carlos is a public school student who decided that that he is actually a female. Society made a mistake, he thinks, when it assigned him to the male gender at birth. Since he now wants to go by “Carla,” this will be noted as a nickname in his school database’s preferred name field.

His parents, however, will never be told by the school.

The Los Angeles Unified School District used this fictional student to describe its policy on transgender students, in conversation with a CRI staff member. “We would see Carlos as female and treat him as female, because that’s his gender identity,” an LAUSD official said.

“Even parents with like the best intentions for their child can end up harming the child in some way,” he said, explaining the policy against telling parents. Possible harms include physical injury, putting minors out on the streets -- or trying to change students’ minds on transsexuality.

“The message is it’s risky to be honest with parents, but at school, you can be your real self. These educators help students deceive parents and lead a double life,” said Karen England, Executive Director of Capitol Resource Institute.

LAUSD has been a transgender policy leader in California. In policies on locker rooms, restrooms, and athletics, it permits students to go wherever their “gender identity” dictates.

Influential groups embrace the same philosophy. California Safe Schools Coalition issued a “model directive” for schools to use when dealing with transgender students.

When a male student says he is a female (or vice versa), it tells schools to provide access to a restroom “that corresponds to the student’s gender identity.” The same rule applies to sports teams and gym, dress codes, gender-segregated support and counseling groups, and more.

This language requires boys, for example, to be allowed on girls’ softball teams.

“The Coalition is looking at ways to implement the directive. It’s only a matter of time before each school is confronted. Parents need to ask themselves if they are equipped and educated to deal with what eventually will be coming to their own school districts,” England said.

A male student in Northern California is currently taking legal action on this issue. He was forced to change in a boys’ locker room, while a female student got dressed in the same room.

“I’m assuming this is what happens when a girl perceives herself as a boy and wants to use the boys’ locker room. This is where ‘anti-discrimination’ policy is headed,” England said.

State laws on transsexuality, and district policies, apply to even the youngest students.

Influential Members of the Multisexual School Coalition

The California Safe Schools Coalition is promoting policies that allow transgender girls on the boys’ swim team, promote homosexual behavior as normal, and approve of bisexuality. These policies might sound like fringe ideas, but its membership list shows a mainstream presence.

These policies apply in kindergarten through high school.

In the article on harassment above, we discuss how San Francisco is kicking parents out of decisions on multisexuality, with its interpretation of AB 537. The California Safe Schools Coalition was formed to promote “effective and comprehensive implementation” of AB 537.

See a partial list of official Coalition members. It includes predictable districts such as Los Angeles Unified, but also Ventura Unified, student clubs with teacher sponsors, Orange County, the California Teacher’s Association, and others.

Girls on the boys’ swim team? Yes, if they appear to genuinely believe they are young men.

Schools and policymakers partner with pro-multisexual advocates in this coalition. They are still in the process of implementing AB 537, but they are working to change every public school.

Action Alert: Federal Hate Crimes Bill to be Heard Wednesday

A federal bill targeting Americans who disagree with multisexuality will be heard in the House Judiciary Committee tomorrow. Opposition calls must be made today.
 
H.R. 1319, the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009, would provide federal assistance to state and local prosecution of hate crimes. It focuses on crimes that are “motivated by prejudice” against race, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, and more. It does not matter whether these protected characteristics are “actual or perceived.”

In addition to federal grants, the federal Attorney General could give technical, forensic, prosecutorial, or any other form of assistance, as crimes are investigated and prosecuted.

Capitol Resource Institute opposes all hate crimes legislation. Criminal laws should focus on punishing illegal behavior, regardless of the motivation for it. Yet hate crime laws make it easier, or even mandatory, for government to censor ideas that the people in power do not like.

If we stay silent, no one will speak for us. Call your representative to oppose H.R. 1319 today.
