The idea that the state does not control children is offensive to at least one of the two political parties. That would be the one that controls public education through unions whose primary responsibility is self-enrichment through dues from teachers, money they then lavish on candidates who will do anything to protect that monopoly.
Students don’t matter, and the assessment scores prove that. Throwing money at teachers and administrators only makes them think they are smarter than you, and who can blame them? They’ve convinced the customers to pay more every year despite the terrible service and lousy product.
But controlling dollars misleadingly labeled as “for education” isn’t enough. Some of those minds will not remain subject to government schools’ intellectual wasteland and cultural rot. They must interfere by other means, through different agencies. Child and family services and family courts frequently leverage whatever means they can imagine to pry children away from parents and families. We’ve had DCYF try to take kids for more reasons than I can recall, and just like the public schools, the results are a disaster. Kids supervised by the state are more likely to end up in trouble or even dead, but it’s not about the kids.
But you can’t just enter a home and take a kid without a reason (I didn’t say due process, I said a reason).
This is about control.
ICYMI…
If the schools convince your child they are Jenny instead of James and you disagree they can call the Stasi to come and punish you for that – and we all know how understanding Colorado’s Civil Rights Commissions are -Not!
Precocious children might decide that it is easier to get their way by pretending to have a different name and using adopted pronouns as leverage—teenagers in particular, who might find themselves actually abused as a result. Being a parent is challenging enough wihtout this crap. Colorado Democrats are putting kids in danger, and let’s be honest, they don’t actually care about children or discrimination. It is about power and control of future minds.
This also strikes me as about their depopulation agenda.
Given the trap they’ve set, who will want to have kids in Colorado, which I confess isn’t that bad of an idea. But should this become law, I am also curious about how they plan to deal with the Muslim population. It’s not significant. Roughly 10,000 Muslims live in the What Are You Sky High State. Is the government going to force them, in contradiction to their religious faith, to pander to the Democrat transgender agenda?
My money is on no, which means that it would then be discrimination by the state to treat Christians who object differently, which we know they already do.
Does Jack Phillips’ family have grandkids in the Colorado schools?
And does this benefit anyone aside from lawyers? It’s certainly not for the children.
