The Issue: An injunction to prevent NJ schools from having to notify parents if their kids want to switch genders.
Parents have a self-evident right to have a seat at the table when it comes to the upbringing of their child .Parents have invariably been included as active and essential participants on committees that gather the resources in a district to address the academic, emotional, social or physical needs of their child.
Parent input on such committees is crucial. This committee structure can be easily utilized to partner with parents in discussions involving a very sensitive and far-reaching issue — their child’s gender identity or expression. To exclude, block or omit a parent from a seat at the table is not only contemptible and despicable, it is beyond the government’s power to legislate.For all the good Gov. Phil Murphy has done, I cannot believe he supports this nonsense where parents are kept in the dark about their children’s gender identity.For anyone to be able to avoid informing parents of their children’s behavior is preposterous.Sadly, we live in a totally upside-down society these days.
In all these arguments, I think it’s about time to return to the basic principle that the government derives its power from the people, and that the people, not the government, have final say. Once we remember that, we will be back on track.I can’t believe that the Democrats who control New Jersey or any other state are in favor of policies that would prevent teachers from alerting parents of the fact their child wants “gender affirming” care.
