Insane Left Has Banned Christian Kids From Public Pools, Libraries, And Summer Camps

The Federalist Reports:

Forcing children to sleep and undress next to kids of the opposite sex effectively puts up a 'Christian kids need not apply' sign on public recreation activities.

This spring I got an email from 4-H, a club I participated in as a child, effectively communicating that my Christian family need not apply to summer camps and other activities sponsored by the quasi-public organization. (County governments often sponsor 4-H activities.) This email was signed by a 4-H staffer who put pronouns in his signature and told me, "Youth are assigned cabins based on gender indicated on the 4-H camp application and registration," suggesting children were roomed by gender identity rather than sex.

Naturally, I was concerned that my tween daughter and son might be roomed overnight with an emotionally disturbed camper or counselor if I enrolled them in this camp. Based on numerous reported stories, I know that if this did happen, the camp likely would not even tell me, so I'd only hear about it after the fact from my kids.

When I emailed again to confirm I was understanding this correctly, the staffer refused to answer definitively whether campers could be placed in private facilities such as bedrooms and bathrooms with transgender individuals. That's an unacceptable risk to children's well-being, as well as a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Given how socially contagious LGBT identification is, it's not just about transgender issue but also exposing children to sexual information and pressures far earlier than they are ready. Hand in hand with grouping children by gender identity is forcing conversations about what that means, which pushes children earlier and earlier to declare and investigate sexual behaviors. This is destabilizing to their identity, not "affirming" it.
