New Jersey to require 2nd graders learn about gender identity in fall, alarming parents
Fox News ^ | April 7th, 2022 | Houston Keene

Sample NJ lesson plan says, 'You might feel like you're a boy even if you have body parts that some people might tell you are 'girl' parts.'

New Jersey public school second graders will be getting a lesson in gender identity this fall under state sex education guidelines that will take effect in September.

According to the standards, New Jersey students should, by the end of second grade, understand the "core ideas" that all "individuals should feel welcome and included regardless of their gender, gender expression or sexual orientation."

Additionally, the standards listed "performance expectations" for second graders, which includes discussing "the range of ways people express their gender and how gender role stereotypes may limit behavior."

Educators in the Garden State are preparing to carry out the teaching standards, which were established in 2020 but not required to be enacted until Sept. 2022.

One school district in the state distributed sample lesson plans indicating first graders could be taught they can have "boy parts" but "feel like" a girl.

The lesson plans, which were given to parents at the Westfield Board of Education's Feb. 22 meeting, appear to be reflective of the Garden State's new, broader sex education curriculum.

One lesson plan, "Purple, Pink and Blue," instructs teachers to talk to their first graders about gender identity, and its first objective is to have the students be able to define "gender, gender identity and gender role stereotypes."

The lesson’s second objective is to have students name "at least two things they’ve been taught about gender role stereotypes and how those things may limit people of all genders."

Always worth noting that literally EVERYONE behind this grooming effort is also anti-Russia.

It’s up to the parents to change things. That’s the deal

Heaven help us.

Despite its faults, the Russian Federation vigorously opposes gender confusion. Gay parades are banned. Gays are not allowed to adopt.

Children under 8yo do not have the mental capacity to understand gender identity. Stop the madness.
(We know there’s only one reason for this to continue for this age group. NAMBLAs motto : Sex before 8 or it’s too late)

They already know gender identity; boys are not allowed in the girls restroom and the reverse is true as well. Education over.

Very true. And if you note the timeline, it became illegal to groom kids there in 2014, which was the moment that Russia became Enemy #1 in the eyes of the West.

Funny how that works...

Why just parents? These kids will be leading in society one day. When we allow the sexualization of kids under the banner of “enlightened inclusiveness”, where you’re a ‘hateful bigot’ if you disagree, then we’re one step shy of making Christian doctrine the enemy of society.

They’re coming after the kids and you’d better not oppose them. It will impact all of us.

Kids cannot handle knowing about sex before they are at the age of puberty.

Educators know this or they should

Parents know it instinctively. They either stop this or they don’t. Either we are a free country where parents are not seen by their children getting walked all over or we are not

Alarmed? That’s just not Tge right reaction. Doesn’t help the kids.

When I was about this age, I self-identified as a grizzly bear because I thought it would be cool to sleep whenever I wanted, eat whatever I wanted and growl if I didn’t get my way. But there was no mandatory state coursework to affirm my identity, so I grew up.

If you live in New Jersey you shouldn’t be surprised by anything.

Soon they’ll be taking children on field trips to BSDM clubs to learn about the wonders of ‘alternative’ sex practices.

New Jersey announces it is a Pedo-groomer State.

(The new State flag will be X-rated.)

“that all “individuals should feel welcome and included regardless of their gender, gender expression or sexual orientation.”

No. All should not. Most, yes, but never all. Some are simply not worthy of acceptance.

The female voters in NJ are the problem. They are so liberal.

Why the parents? Because their children are being sexually abused by the state, so it begins with them.
