Teachers in England will have to tell parents if children question their gender

I love how people who aren't part of the community think they know what's best for the community. Fucking assholes, outing kids into what could be a potentially dangerous situation, depending on the parents views.

I'd love to out their deepest, most well kept secrets, see how they feel.

It's disgusting how all these 'protections' they put in place will do more harm than good. You can tell it's coming from an anti trans standpoint as they're trying to scare people into staying hidden.

Fuck the government.

You guys will be banning books like Florida next if you don't nip this fascist bullshit in the bud right now.

Can someone explain how/why the Brits appear to be turning into Texans?

Kids being unable to trust teachers here reminds me of being unable to trust teachers to stop anti-gay bullying due to Section 28.

I gave up teaching two years after moving to the UK, it's an absolute mess.

I can only imagine needing to fill out the "inform the parent" form and then immediately needing to fill out a safeguarding form (something you fill out any time you note anything like bruises, comments, out of sort actions, etc.). It's absolutely tragic.

Ahh, more reasons for people to leave teaching.

Honestly, I think the only teachers I know that are still teachers today is because they're under the thumb of this system - specialised training that isn't much use elsewhere, so they have to stay and continue to work in increasingly impoverished conditions.

Any teachers reading this - I'm sorry for what you have to go through, and even as a childless individual, I am greatful for the sacrifices you're making to ensure the future of our society.

If the a doesn't want to tell his parents for whatever reason yet, it should stay this way.
Honestly sounds like something straight out of Florida or parody news websites lol.

Why would they not tell their parents? Genuine question from someone out of the loop. If my kid was questioning I would prefer I know, right? The school has the kid for the majority of their time awake during the school year. This makes sense to me.

I was questioning the gender of my teachers all the time but they did not go whining to my parents about it. Ill give them that.

Hopefully, the rest of the EU holds the line on this, so that when the British come crawling back in a few years with their economy in tatters, they're forced to roll back all of this barbaric Tory social legislation as a condition of readmittance.

Teachers are public servants.

If they're hiding necessary information about my kid from me, that's not serving the tax payers. That's government employees determining decisions for kids that aren't their own, without taking any risk for how these decisions turn out.

French teachers when girls forget the e at the end of adjectives.

Imagine being a kid under constant surveillance. Boomers really are all helicopter parents if they vote shit like this through. That will fuck up their kids and grandkids big time.

Would teachers be able to protest this law by telling all the parents their kid is questioning their gender all the time?

So it's bad that parents make decisions about their own children? Wtf is wrong with people here in the comments? What gives anyone else the right to decide how to raise other people's children?!

If I was a parent, I'd like teachers to tell me if my child was questioning my gender. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with that kid? Do I need to run around the house naked more often?
