Ah... well, I will admit to being more left-leaning than you probably are but I'm far from extreme. But I understand how uptighty righties think everything to their left is extreme. They are after all the drama queens of the modern era.

I do blame parents for putting walls between themselves and their children.
That is a broad, generalized statement. You do not know what is going on with all families. To assume it is the parents fault is a rather bigoted statement.
It may be generalized but so is any context on which policies are set. You don't write laws against stealing because everyone is a thief - you write them because you have to assume that *some* people are. In this case, if a student doesn't want his parents to know about his sexual dysphoria, the school should consider the high probability that the parents are assholes.
Just out of curiosity, what possible scenario can you describe where a student is too scared to tell his own parents about his feelings and yet the parents can't be blamed for the lack of trust?
Sorry, if I don't have the patience to make excuses for bad parenting. And if schools are going to err, I think it's better that they err on the side of a students safety rather than the bigotry of f.cked up parents.

The issue is that instead of treating the problem, leftists are enabling the problem.
Leftists believe in the freedom to be who you are. Since conservatives have a serious problem with personal freedom they interpret that as enabling problems.

History is also has cultures where 'trans' were executed /stoned/etc.
Yes, those were the tyrannical cultures of fear and cruelty not the cultures of freedom. Is that what you want? Fear and cruelty?

you again make broad generalizations blaming the parents - I wouldn't be surprised if you made those same type of broad generalizations about religious groups, etc. who disagree with you; a common characteristics amongst those on the left.[/b][/b]
Sounds like your generalizing... Can you say, hypocrite?
