The push to introduce gender ideology in schools has reached absurd levels, turning basic education into an ideological battlefield where children are being taught that biological facts are subjective. Gender ideology, in its modern form, claims that sex and gender are fluid and subjective, and that children should have the “freedom” to decide their identity, often at ages when they still believe in the tooth fairy. The idea that young kids should be encouraged to question their own biological identity has nothing to do with education and everything to do with indoctrination.
Parents send their children to school expecting them to learn the basics—reading, writing, math, science. Instead, kids are exposed to radical ideas that contradict basic biology, telling them that they can change their gender based on how they feel that day. Anyone with common sense can see how damaging this is to young minds that are still developing. Why are we pushing young children to question basic facts about themselves? That’s not enlightenment; it’s confusion.
Parents are increasingly alarmed, and they have every reason to be. In some cases, schools even keep parents out of the loop when it comes to discussions about gender identity, creating a wedge between families. Parents know their kids best and have the primary responsibility to guide their children’s development. But under this ideology, schools assume they know better than parents and can make decisions about children’s identities. Who benefits from that?
The purpose of education should be to provide kids with the tools they need to succeed in life, not to indoctrinate them with fringe ideologies that serve no purpose other than to divide people. And yet, many on the left have decided that this is where public education should go—directly into the business of social engineering.
This is a disturbing trend that has no place in our education system. There’s a reason parents are fighting back at school boards across the country. These aren’t fringe concerns; they’re fundamental values. If we allow schools to continue pushing radical gender ideology, it won’t just undermine education—it’ll undermine families and communities. It’s time to return common sense to our schools. If education is to mean anything, it must teach children the truth and prepare them for the real world, not push them into confusion. President Trump and other conservatives are right to call out these ideologies and work toward putting families back in control of education. Kids don’t need indoctrination; they need truth and stability. That’s something you won’t get with this agenda.
