BREAKING NEWS – Chino, California – The California State Superintendent, Tony Thurmond, was kicked out of a school board meeting and escorted by police while protesting a policy to inform parents about a child’s desire to change genders.
The Chino Valley Unified School District policy, which ultimately passed, stipulated that parents must be informed if their child expresses a desire to be identified or treated as a gender different from their biological sex, intends to use the bathroom and athletic facilities of the opposite sex, seeks a pronoun or name change, or if there are mental health concerns with the child.
Thurmond objected to the policy, warning it “may fall outside of the laws that respect privacy and safety for our pre-teen students, or even worse, it may cause nosy parents asking these particular children questions on an issue that is basically none of mom’s or dad’s business.”
