Transgender at School

Jessica Bradshaw found out that her 15 year old identified as transgender at school after she glimpsed a homework assignment with an unfamiliar name scrawled at the top. When she asked about the name, the teenager acknowledged that at his request, teachers and administrators at his high school in Southern California had for six months been calling him by mail pronouns. Dozens of parents whose children have socially transitioned at school told the times they felt villainized by educators who seemed to think that they, not the parents, knew what was best for their children. They insisted that educators should not intervene without notifying parents unless there is evidence of physical abuse at home.
