Transgender teddy bears

Transgender teddy bears have been used to “indoctrinate” 10-year-old schoolchildren, it has been claimed.

Footage of a class delivered to a primary school in St Albans, Hertfordshire, shows a teacher holding up a picture book titled Introducing a teddy to help explain transgender issues.

In the session for Year 6 pupils, a video of which has been seen by the Telegraph, the teacher narrates the moment in the picture book that “Thomas the teddy” comes out as a transgender girl.

Question: Would you have been fine with having this book read to your child? (Why or Why Not)

Teddy bears may be a convenient medium as they're androgynous. Good thinking, actually. If I was 11, though, I'd have a few questions. "How can a boy be a girl?" would be a start

And, no, I wouldn't be fine. If the narrative is "let them decisde for themselves...", then let them. How does this help one to "decide for themselves", especially as mom and dad are being excluded from that conversation more and more?
