California Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta filed a lawsuit Monday against the Chino school district, ordering an end to a policy that requires notifying parents if their children change their gender identity, alleging it is discriminatory and violates civil rights and privacy laws.

The “parental notification” policy, which has been proposed by a handful of conservative-leaning districts in California, puts transgender and gender-nonconforming students in “danger of imminent, irreparable harm” by potentially forcibly “outing” them at home before they’re ready, according to the lawsuit.

        You saying “no” is incorrect because they are part of the everyone you mention.

        Also, everyone does not pay the bill. Only homeowners and renters (taxes baked into their rent cost). Let’s not forget how many people are homeless (and growing).

      I am childless and I also pay for public schools to teach students. I don’t pay for them to out children to abusive parents like you want.

      We all “pay the bill” because educating children is a moral requirement for humanity.

      It’s not a service you are paying for for yourself. That is warped sense of morality.

      Whoa, everybody check out this guy, he pays taxes. Let us all bow down in his presence.

      Everybody pays taxes, buddy. Paying taxes doesn’t entitle you to an army of snitches spying on your kids. If you want to learn about your kid’s life, maybe you should talk to your kids instead of relying on strangers to do it for you.

      Children are human beings and human beings aren’t property and you don’t get the right to control their entire lives because you pay for their basic needs.
