Board voted last night to adopt a policy that will forcibly out trans, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming students to their families without consent. This is dangerous and puts these youth in harm’s way. Full statement here:
And using the government employees (public school educators) to legally rat on your own child is quite literally fascism, folks
Conservatives will do all sorts of mental gymnastics not to call anything they LIKE as actual authoritarianism

Kids are fearful of their parents knowing they do drugs and drink as well. Does that make this actions OK? A parent has a right to know if their child is experiencing mental issues like gender dysphoria, anxiety, depression and suicidal thoughts.

I know you believe you are doing good, but it is important for you and your team to understand that this kind of rhetoric is driving more and more families away from public education. If you believe in public education, you will respect the family unit and defer to parents on…

Let's say a teacher has a child who is anorexic or bulimic, or one who is displaying suicidal or psychopathic tendencies. You're saying that the teacher should reject alerting the parents or guardians?
If you had kids, you'd be singing a different tune.

Ridiculous. Of course confused kids don't tell their parents everything. What if a child were "fearfully hiding their anorexia.. or cutting.. or abusive relationship..." Teachers don't have a right to keep secrets from parents.
