“Our school kept parents in the dark,” wrote Jay Keck in USA Today. He described how his daughter’s public school facilitated her “gender transition”:
She first came out as transgender to her school, and when she announced that she was a boy, the faculty and staff — who had full knowledge of her mental health challenges — affirmed her. Without telling me or my wife, they referred to her by her new name. They treated my daughter as if she were a boy, using male pronouns and giving her access to a gender neutral restroom.
Shocking, but surely not representative of how most public schools would handle such situations, right? Wrong. Public schools across the country routinely invoke district “gender policies” to justify hiding information about children’s gender transitions from their parents.
