Maybe some parents should listen to their kids more than indoctrinating them with their ideologies.

Well fair play to you for that. Not everyone has teh money or abilitry to take a kid in though, and I dont think we should have to rely on the kindness of others.
There is a real place for schools not telling parents about whether a kid is gay or whatever, but they need to make that case first not just assume that the parents are bad uns.

If you knew outing a kid to their parents would result in rejection, abuse or neglect or in other words, disclosure would be putting a child in harm’s way would you still do it anyway?
Parents have an obligation to know what is happening with their minor children.
My kid tells me.

So it's okay though for the schools/state to do it behinds parent's backs ?
As I previously stated — the history is there from when gay kids needed a Safe Haven.
I support the right of the kids to have a Safe Haven.

My kid comes to me. He is non-binary and open.

I wish we could go back to a time when we could rely on the kindness of others.

You're not arguing against the right a teacher has to protect kids from abusive parents, are you now?

None of those are revoked unless you're considered a danger to the kids well-being...?

History with LGBTQ+ kids —- does not support right of parent over right of kid.
Parents have rights over children.
Children do not have rights over parents.

it isn't one big trans orgy during class...
Maybe get cameras with life feed to all parents?
would that quench your control drive?
Adding transgender to the list just shows, that this creates a lot of domestic violence.
Reading some of the posts around here I can see why that could be...

Emancipation is a legal way for a 14 to 17-year-old to become free from their parent's custody and control. In many ways, they are legally like an adult.
bold mine
openly state that district personnel can or should keep a student’s transgender status hidden from parents.
More fantasy land... Teacher teach class,
