  Hi, I'm Kaylee Wykebroat. I'm a mom of two in Fairfax
• 0:03
  County. This is my oldest and my husband
• 0:08
  and I have a difficult decision to make this fall as he is
• 0:12
  approaching preschool age. And we are faced with the
• 0:15
  decision of whether or not we are going to put our child in
• 0:20
  public school system. Where Fairfax County has decided
• 0:24
  to move forward with instituting gender studies in elementary
• 0:30
  preschool. Despite having done a study
• 0:34
  group, a focus group in the community to see if parents even
• 0:38
  wanted this. And when parents said no, the
• 0:42
  board voted 16 to 0 and said we're moving forward anyways.
• 0:46
  This shows clearly that they see parents not as partners, but as
• 0:52
  an obstacle for their agenda. And I, I have a really hard time
• 0:58
  looking at him and going here. I'm just going to give you over
• 1:03
  to people who do not want to partner with me and how you're
• 1:06
  going to be raised. School and education is a huge
• 1:11
  part of a child's life, and early childhood is supposed to
• 1:15
  be filled with exploration and creativity and fun, not debating
• 1:21
  issues that are for adults to handle.
• 1:24
  These kinds of topics should be introduced sensitively and by
• 1:29
  parents who are raising their children with their values, not
• 1:35
  with an ideology passed down from the top.
