Op-Ed
We strongly support the parents and residents opposing the Lee County School Board pushing the LGBTQ agenda including implementing mixed-gender bathrooms.
For years now, Liberals have done great harm to our children and grandchildren by imposing beliefs that are opposite of parental wishes. The job of a parent and or guardian has been robbed by teachers and school administrators who wish to take away their Natural Authority to not only discipline their children but also discuss sensitive and personal issues such as sex education.
There is no good reason children should be exposed to homosexual and or transexual lifestyles. Likewise, it is appalling for any school staff to suggest prescribing puberty hormone blockers to students, and or discuss with any students moral issues that should always be shared at home, or with someone only approved by parents.
For the unknowing the Diagnostic Statistical Manual, 5th Edition continues to list Transvestic Disorder as well as Gender Dysphoria (gender identity confusion) as mental health issues. Teachers and Lee County School staff promoting lifestyles that are not only highly immoral to most parents, creates confusion among students, and is counterproductive to Lee County families who are raising their children in an already turbulent world.
Children are highly impressionable and often motivated by peer pressure. Of course, those who are employed as teachers and administrators in our schools are already aware of this and frightfully, some who are aware of this are taking advantage of students by pushing an agenda that is harmful. The students themselves cannot be blamed for wanting mixed gender bathrooms as well as experimenting with sexual identities. The adults in our schools who push such immoral ideologies must bear brunt of the blame.
America and Lee County is in trouble because we have left the moral roots that our founding fathers built this nation upon. They knew that strong morals and ethics would be like glue that held America together. Our founding fathers also knew world history (that some of our teachers have purposely ignored). They were keenly aware that the some of the greatest nations and empires such as the Roman and Greek Empires imploded because of their moral disintegration.
We demand that the Lee County School Board immediately stop their immoral push of the LGBTQ agenda and certainly keep our boys’ and girls’ bathrooms separate.
