"Mom, can people be both a girl and a boy?" : Parenting | White woman does her best to set her son up for years of bullying

He's 7. He's been in public school for a month. We live in small town Montana. I asked him what he wanted her to know, I told him about pronouns. He doesn't care if we call him he or she. He is willing to keep using the boys bathroom. So I tell his teacher and she says "thanks for letting me know".

Today at school he told some of his classmates and tells me that now they aren't his friends anymore, that they moved away from where he was sitting and won't come near him now.

What should I do? I both want to be chill and just let him be him whether he keeps that identity, or is just trying it on. We live in small town Montana though, I want to empower him and encourage him to express himself honestly, I also want to encourage him to closet to keep him safe and that's so messed up.

Should I ask to meet with the mental health department at the school for advice? Is that appropriate? Hhhheeeelllppp.

You should've told him "No" and moved on instead of putting silly shit like this in his head.

Keep this reddit post so you can show it to his therapist in 13 years.

LMFAO

When they told us they were 6. At the time we lived in a not so accepting area. There they wore the brightest colors they could find. Easter in the boys section was they're favorite lol Then we moved to Palm Springs. This is where their style really came out. They've been in leggings from the girls section ever since. They're now 11 and it definitely wasn't a faze. We're now at a very red school. Most of the teachers are highly religious and the biggest school benefactor is a church.

I raised them to not give a rip about other peoples opinions and taught them the truth behind modern religion. If they didn't want to be their friend then that's their loss. If they try to "save" them they know exactly how to disprove their claims. Build your little dudes confidence and they'll be fine. Teach them the truth about why those people don't like them and they'll be great.

Since they're teacher accepted the info with no problem I would start with talking to her about what's going on.

Feel feee to reach out if you have any specific questions.

"the truth around modern religion" should mean the truth that gender shit and liberalism is the modern religion and is equally stupid and gay, but I assume she meant Christianity, the 2000 year old "modern" religion that hasn't been relevant in 20 years but foids still screech about

no im pretty sure bronze age jews and first century christians wouldve applauded what she did to her kid, its only the modern churches that are opposed to it.

Its a genuinely sad story because the kid is the exact reason Christ came to earth (gather his lost sheep). As it say in the bible, that piece of shit "mother" would be better off swimming the english channel with a millstone on her neck
