Gender Dysphoria, the Mental Disorder, and the Child Abuse Promoting this Ideology is the New Sterilization - Population Control Campaign

Staff Writer, DL Mullan
Gender Ideology / Child Abuse 
_____________________________________

Want someone to voluntarily sterilize themselves? Why not convince children there is something inherently wrong with them so that the State can carry out chemical and surgical sterilization without a fight from the intended victims and be able to neutralize parents with rules, policies, laws, educators, psychologists, and government authorities?

Welcome to the new Dark Ages. Gender ideology seeks to do the worst to humanity by confusing the most vulnerable about their bodies. 

“Where does the APA or DSM-V indicate that Gender Dysphoria is a mental disorder?”
The APA (American Psychiatric Association) is the author of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition(DSM-V). The APA states that those distressed and impaired by their GD meet the definition of a disorder. The College is unaware of any medical literature that documents a gender dysphoric child seeking puberty blocking hormones who is not significantly distressed by the thought of passing through the normal and healthful process of puberty. 
From the DSM-V fact sheet: 
“The critical element of gender dysphoria is the presence of clinically significant distress associated with the condition." 
“This condition causes clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning.” 
 “Where does the DSM-V list rates of resolution for Gender Dysphoria?”
On page 455 of the DSM-V under “Gender Dysphoria without a disorder of sex development” it states: “Rates of persistence of gender dysphoria from childhood into adolescence or adulthood vary. In natal males, persistence has ranged from 2.2% to 30%. In natal females, persistence has ranged from 12% to 50%.” Simple math allows one to calculate that for natal boys: resolution occurs in as many as 100% – 2.2% = 97.8% (approx. 98% of gender-confused boys) Similarly, for natal girls: resolution occurs in as many as 100% – 12% = 88% gender-confused girls
If resolution in confused boys and girls happens, then why are the authorities creating intervention? 

Conclusion: 
Our opponents advocate a new scientifically baseless standard of care for children with a psychological condition (GD) that would otherwise resolve after puberty for the vast majority of patients concerned. Specifically, they advise: affirmation of children’s thoughts which are contrary to physical reality; the chemical castration of these children prior to puberty with GnRH agonists (puberty blockers which cause infertility, stunted growth, low bone density, and an unknown impact upon their brain development), and, finally, the permanent sterilization of these children prior to age 18 via cross-sex hormones. There is an obvious self-fulfilling nature to encouraging young GD children to impersonate the opposite sex and then institute pubertal suppression. If a boy who questions whether or not he is a boy (who is meant to grow into a man) is treated as a girl, then has his natural pubertal progression to manhood suppressed, have we not set in motion an inevitable outcome? All of his same sex peers develop into young men, his opposite sex friends develop into young women, but he remains a pre-pubertal boy. He will be left psychosocially isolated and alone. He will be left with the psychological impression that something is wrong. He will be less able to identify with his same sex peers and being male, and thus be more likely to self identify as “non-male” or female. Moreover, neuroscience reveals that the pre-frontal cortex of the brain which is responsible for judgment and risk assessment is not mature until the mid-twenties. Never has it been more scientifically clear that children and adolescents are incapable of making informed decisions regarding permanent, irreversible and life-altering medical interventions. For this reason, the College maintains it is abusive to promote this ideology, first and foremost for the well-being of the gender dysphoric children themselves, and secondly, for all of their non-gender-discordant peers, many of whom will subsequently question their own gender identity, and face violations of their right to bodily privacy and safety.

Tampons the Ultimate Weapon Against School Micromanagement

Staff Writer, DL Mullan
School Policy / Parental Rights
_________________________________

Really? Principals don't have a better use of their time but make unruly rules? Young women are being forced at school to carry their feminine hygiene products around... in what? Backpacks and purses have been banished from Galesburg High School campus in Illinois. 
“Things like people texting in purses — in class or inappropriate items coming into class and so it wasn’t a single incident, it wasn’t even two or three, it was a combination of all those,” Principal Roy Van Meter stated to the local news affiliate.
Duh, they are kids. When rules are so overbearing, children of that age tend to rebel. How long have you been a school principal anyway? It's psychology 101.

Maybe it's not the students. Perhaps it's the school. 
“She carries her personal feminine napkins in it, hand sanitizing lotion and wipes during her monthly cycle,” the girl’s mother, Carri Harding, told WQAD8 on Wednesday.
Wow! Surprised the poor girl wasn't arrested, but placed in in-house suspension until she gets a doctor's note for her "medical condition." Obviously, it is a directive from someone who has never had a period. 
“Really, a medical condition? I mean, every woman has it every month. It’s not a medical condition, it’s nature,” Harding said in the interview. “I just think that, that particular aspect of their policy should be re-looked at and maybe gone about a different way.”
It's ridiculous. Young women should have access to their necessities during school hours. Their feminine care products are supposed to remain sanitary for good reason. The products should not be lying around in a metal locker or easily lost or stolen from a young lady's pants pocket. 

Women need their privacy. Adults need to get real.
The purse ban is only the latest controversial school rule to hit the headlines. Earlier this month, a Florida school board member proposed a dress code for parents who she claimed dressed too sloppily. “Many parents pick their children up wearing curlers in their hair, sweatpants that fall down, and even pajamas,” board member and creator of the ban Rosalind Osgood told Yahoo Shine. “How can we teach our children to be serious about education if their parents don’t set the right tone?” And last May, according to an upset father on Reddit, his son's unnamed preschool prohibited kids from engaging in "superhero play" to prevent injuries.
Parents, it's time to take your school systems back. 

These people are your employees. You need to start demanding respect for you and your children. No more RFID chips in ID cards. No more school-prison indoctrination. No more drug testing students.

School is there for learning. If your children get bad grades, then you deal with their texting in class. It's not the school's responsibility to police or parent your children; it's a parent's responsibility. 

While you are at putting boundaries on your school officials, take the time to take back your family too.

Or next thing the school bans from campus, maybe you.

Common Core and Today's Schools: Are We Headed for Indoctrination Instead of Education?

Staff Writer, Joshua West
Education / Propaganda
____________________________________

With parents all over the United States complaining about Common Core and its indoctrination principles, one has to wonder are we headed for World War II Germany? Are we teaching our children to accept whatever an authority figure tells them without question or pause?

Disney produced this under contract with the U.S. Government. See this article in Life Magazine http://books.google.com/books?id=ZVEEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA40#v=onepage&q&f=true
The similarities between then and now are startling.

Are Americans ready to reinvent their education system?

Achoo! Don't Catch a Parent's Worse Nightmare: Excuses of Affluenza

Staff Writer, DL Mullan
Parenting / Society
______________________________

"I want to give my kids what I didn't have." 

This statement can be heard from many parents from the Generation X crowd. Society gives kids trophies for just showing up. Hard work is eliminated in lieu of removing competition from sports, games, and life. 

"We don't want to harm their self-esteem." Are you kidding? Competition, success and failure, is what creates self-esteem. 

Now these children have grown up feeling entitled to first place when they did not bother to even sign up for the marathon. 

These quasi adults cannot function. Coping skills have never been taught to them. They skate through life living in their parents home without jobs or responsibilities. 

The role of the parent is not to give a child everything you didn't have; parents are supposed to give their children the tools, emotional and mental, to be successful in the world. The world outside of the home is formidable. The world is harsh and uncaring. 

Parents need to teach their children how to handle injustice and sociopathic behavior found at work. Teach how to correct these errors with kindness and resolve. For denial of justice to one person, is a denial of justice to all. 

Instead parents have not set boundaries or limits to their child's wants, needs, or expectations. As parents, do we fail our children because:
  1. We don’t understand the future implications of giving them everything they want right now
  2. We want them to have the life we didn’t
  3. We are afraid to tell our children no because we know there will be backlash or because we think they will feel loved if we say yes.
  4. We want them to fit in with their peers because it’s hard to be different.
  5. We feel it’s often easier just to give in
  6. We struggle with a bit of affluenza ourselves
In your life, have you failed yourself by exhibiting these behaviors:
  1. Do you frequently buy things you do not really need?
  2. When shopping, are you unable to control how much you spend?
  3. Do you envy the lifestyles of the rich and famous?
  4. Do you feel bad when your neighbors have things you do not?
  5. Do you measure yourself by what others have?
  6. Do you ever use shopping as a means of escape?
  7. Do you use your possessions to impress others?
  8. Do you compare your possessions with what your peers have? If so, do you experience a feeling of superiority that yours are better?
  9. Do you speak often about the things you want?
  10. Do you find yourself complaining about the things you want but cannot afford?
  11. Do you think of spending your money more often than saving it?
  12. Do you often think your life would be more complete if you had more money and possessions?
So as a person and a parent are you too suffering from the signs of Affluenza? Perhaps adults need to reign in their negative tendencies and be a good role model for their children. 

Maybe the best solution to the situation is to turn off television, start living in the moment, stop wanting what others have, and become a real person. The first start is to tell yourself: no. Then your friends: no. Then your children: no.

No, it's not feasible. No, it's not responsible. No, we cannot afford that. No, that's not happening ever. 

Society and culture vis-a-vis the television, movies, and magazines are not there to raise you or your children. It's entertainment. A fiction wrapped in a pretty bow.

What is real is knowing your limits and setting them for you and your family.

Affluenza is not an excuse. It's not even a word. It was made up to keep a child who murdered four people out of prison. 

Don't catch what doesn't exist. Be a good parent and just say: "no." No is a powerful tool that raises great adults.
