• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Yes donkey today for Tuesday July sixteenth goes the law
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: makers in California.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Today the sixteenth right.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Yes, Tuesday July sixteenth goes the law makers in California
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: who yesterday made California the first US state the banded
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: school districts from requiring staff to notify parents of their
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: child's gender identification change under a law signed Monday by
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: You heard me right, California is the first.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Date the band's school rules requiring parents getting notified of
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: their child's pronoun change. Let's go to w lby three
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: news for the report.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Please it's a.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: First in the nation law. The governor band's policies that
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: require teachers to tell parents that their child asked to
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: change their gender identification.
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: Well, I think with the governor signing ABY nineteen fifty five,
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: it's actually go to just cause more confusion.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: Rockland unifided is one of at least six other districts
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: in the state that tried passing similar policies. Many met
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: with legal challenges, and while it's being praised as a
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: way to protect LGBTQ students, from so called forced outings.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: If parents aren't supportive of their children, then the children
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: shouldn't have to tell the parents.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: Some say it could interfere with parent transparency.
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the biggest sticking point in why I'm opposed to
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: AB nineteen fifty five is that it's going to have
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: others on the other side try to force school districts
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: to keep secrets from parents, and I think that's a
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: non starter for me.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: I agreed that was actually a WLBT three news for
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: the report, and this is where politicians lose me every
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: damn time. I wouldn't care if my child identified as
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: a teenage mutant Ninja turtle. Okay, they could come in
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: that classroom and say they Leonardo Donatello, Raphael and Michaelangelo. Teacher,
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: you better tell me so I know what the hell
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: is going on. Got me confused as hell when my
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: kid comes home craving pizza all the day, walking around
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: with weapons like nunchucks and twin katanas, a bow twin side,
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: they doing kicks, wearing bandana mask and I'm trying to
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: figure out what the hell is going on. Then I
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: come to you, okay as a parent, Okay, parent to
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: teacher and ask you if you've noticed any changes, and
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: you tell me you're not allowed to disclose that information. See,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: this is the problem we us, Okay, as a society
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: were not a village, right, were not a village when
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: it comes to our kids. Were supposed to work as
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: one unit. What I don't see as a parent, you
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: may see as a teacher. What you don't know about
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: my child. As a teacher, I may have information as
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: a parent that can help you. We gotta work in
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: concert with each other, okay. Brandon Richards, a spokesperson for
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom, says this law helps keep children safe while
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: protecting the critical role of parents. He said in the statement,
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: it protects the child parent relationship by preventing politicians and
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: school staff from inappropriately intervening in family matters and attempting
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: to control if, when, and how families have deeply personal conversations. Brandon,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: as your leader, Joe Biden says, quite often, that's a
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: bunch of malarkey. To me, you're doing the opposite. If
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: my child comes out at school, comes out to you,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: but haven't come out to me yet, then that means
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: my child maybe dealing.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: With a whole lot of backlash.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: A whole lot of hate, a whole lot of prejudice
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: that their young mind can't navigate through.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: And I would like to be there to help them
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: do that.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: What happens if my child, you know, God forbid, kills
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: themselves because they are getting bullied because of their gender identity.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: And I had no idea, Okay, I had no idea
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: that's what they even identified as.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: I didn't know they identified as something else.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: How can you, as a teacher's, sleep at night knowing
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: you knew but didn't.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Tell me their parent are guardian?
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: And how hot would a parent be if they found
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: out you had that information and didn't tell me. Jonathan Zacherson,
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: an advocate in California who supports what this article calls
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: the parental notification policies, opposes the law and said telling
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: parents about a student's request to change their gender identification
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: is critical to the well being of children and for
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: maintaining that trust between school and parents. I agree, Okay,
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: it's critical to the well being of children because well,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: you know, we know how daddy and mommy issues impact
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: us in the future. And listen, a lot of times
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: kids be thinking their parents are gonna be mad at
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: things their parents.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Not even tripping on.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Okay, Yes, if your child comes to you and tells
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: you they identify as another gender, it's gonna take you aback,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: but that's still your child. And most parents are gonna
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: love their children regardless. The ones that don't, they're just
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: terrible people.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: I understand that coming out to your parents is hard. Okay,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: deciding when to come out as difficult.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: I get it. People want to do it on their
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: own terms.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: But when you do come out, I feel like it
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: should be you know your parents first.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: But I don't even want.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: To get caught up in the LGBTQ Disney plus of
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: it all. I just encourage my kids to tell me everything.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: The secrets we keep as a society have done nothing
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: but hurt us. Okay, we don't do ourselves any favor
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: by keeping secrets, which is why I tell my kids
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: to tell me everything.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: We will figure it out.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Don't lie to me, don't keep nothing from me, because
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: nobody gonna help you navigate whatever it is you dealing
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: with better than me and your mama. Okay, your real
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: day ones. Teachers, we have to help each other.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Parents.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: We send our kids off the school every day, our
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: kids spend a large part of their days at school
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: with teachers.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: I feel that teachers should be.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Required to tell parents of any changes to their child's emotional, mental,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: or physical health.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: It's only right, okay.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: And as a parent, if I know my child has
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: some issues, I should have to tell the teacher to
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: tell the teacher about those issues in order to make
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: their job easier so they can make the proper adjustments.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: All right, That's just the way the world should work.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: This child is your.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: Responsibility part time for a brief moment in time. This
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: child is my responsibility forever until they become an adult
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: and start taking care of me. So therefore, you better
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: tell me everything you know about my child. Tell me
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: everything you learn about my child. Why, because that's my child.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: Once again, we don't do ourselves any favors by keeping secrets,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: and we damn sure don't need California lawmakers making laws
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: to assist my child in keeping them. Please give California
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: lawmakers who made Cali the first US state the band
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: school districts from requiring staff to notify parents of their
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: child's gender identification change the biggest he huh, And to me,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: this ain't even about gender identification. It's just about encouraging
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: children to keep secrets from their parents.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: I ain't with that.
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: I don't think there's any parents that will agree with this.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 6:13
