Woke school district doubles down on teaching students about new gender pronouns — including the phrase ‘tree’ (Michigan)

A Michigan elementary school district is doubling down on a lesson for students about using novel gender pronouns, including the phrase “tree,” with the superintendent saying it promoted “inclusivity.”

Schavey Road Elementary School, in DeWitt, Mich., sent out a letter on April 11 informing parents of the school’s plans to “help students share and explore pronouns” in a lesson using the book “They She He Me: Free to Be!” by Maya Gonzalez, which includes cartoon pictures of men and women using interchangeable pronouns. The letter also states parents are able to opt their children out of the curriculum.

“We would like to inform you of a lesson that will be taught in your child’s classroom,” the April 11 letter said. “The lesson goals are to help students share and explore pronouns through discussion and literature to embrace differences and promote acceptance.”

“On the inside, you may not feel like a he or she at all,” the book states. “Maybe they feels most free or you may feel like both she and he.”

Children are taught they can “claim” their pronouns outside “he and she” by creating the way they want to be addressed.

“You can use your own name as a pronoun,” the book says. “You can change pronouns from he to she or she to he. You can use new ones like ze or create your own like tree! Some people use they, which is a perfect way. There are many more pronouns waiting to be discovered and used.”

The mini-lesson is not designed to challenge or alter family beliefs.

"They" lie.

You can use new ones like ze or create your own like tree!

Truly inspirational, because here's another inclusive pronoun for use along with tree:

"rope"

Forget turtles.. it's inclusive pronouns all the way down.

......................................

This is grooming children to receive demonic spirits, setting them up for exploitation and destruction. Rebuke the delusional groomers and protect the innocent in the Name of Jesus.

“Then up spoke the Faery Queen, an angry queen was she
Woe betide her ill-wrought face, an ill death may she die
“Oh, had I known, Tam Lin, “ she said, “what this night I did see
I’d have looked him in the eyes, and turned him to a tree”

“You can use your own name as a pronoun,”

No, that would be a proper noun. This ignorance is evil and we must stop it. Too many adults have their minds in children’s pants.

If you can make them up, then why did Disney fire that one actress for claiming her pronouns were beep, bop, and boop?

Since parents can opt out for their children, maybe there won’t be any students taking the class.

It’s unreasonable to force a person to remember a made-up string of letters that is called a pronoun. It’s hard enough to remember a person’s name.

But if you forget a person’s name, you aren’t fired/canceled/blackballed/arrested.
