The child has been praised by relatives and teachers after being diagnosed with gender dysphoria during the summer holidays.

Fellow pupils at the school in Worcester have been told of the identity change at special

some parents have complained about what they say is a lack of consultation.

Consultation? Excuse me but what damn business is it of theirs? This child has been diagnosed with a medical condition, the only people who really need to know about it are the child, the parents and the school, as they have a duty of care while the child is on school property.

Don't you consult with other parents before deciding what to wear, what medical conditions you may have, and who you should fuck?

Hells no, I'm one of those oddities that thinks I should be allowed to do as I please.

Forreal. What do these people think Parent Night is for? Everyone has to vote on what's acceptable for the year, and what bullying tactics they'll use to enforce it!

That's what I said. A lack of consultation about somebody else's child?

My thoughts exactly. It's not their kid, for God's sake, why in the world should they be consulted? What makes they think their opinion/approval/whatever is needed or wanted?

But everyone must care about what they think, them and their child are the most important things in the world, how dare they not consult the such wise, all knowing parents?

Seriously, it's this kid's business, nobody else's and I applaud her for knowing her own self and not being afraid to show it.

but they need to tell their children what to think about the situation before they're confronted with it!

[riath]

Oh I completely forgot about that! After all these parents need time to tell their own children that this sort of thing isn't actually acceptable and they shouldn't tolerate it. Without that, this girl's fellow pupils might think it's *gasp* acceptable!
