A mother’s pride in her child’s refusal to include

I read a tweet on Twitter/X this morning which I find profoundly depressing.

It was the mother of a young child telling about how proud she was about her little child in school refusing to participate in a LGBTQIA+ inclusion exercise in the classroom as part of the SPHE topic.

The child objected and refused to participate. The teacher asked her to get a note from her mother to that effect.

And the proud mother sent in a long email as to why the child should not learn about inclusion of members of the LGBTQIA+ community in society.

The responses on Twitter were all strongly supportive of the woman and her child.

I find this utterly depressing.

And given Trump’s success in the United States Presidential election, we can expect more of this.
