   @annamal
   I was just asking questions. I just wanted to know the upper limits of a teacher's discretion. If it is harmless dress up and play to explore possibilities or what. If it were gentle and simple, why does it need to be secret unless parents are the enemy? I'm not a parent so I'm just curious.

     @chris @ned Can you point to credible evidence of teachers concealing student's medical plans? The context of this discussion was cosmetic reversible changes.

     @annamal
     Inshallah. But the parents should know about the upcoming Bris? Or the clitoridectomy? What about secret baptisms? I mean, I don't care. I made a lot of choices in my life to make sure I have zero skin in the game on any of this. Hail Satan for all I care.

     @chris @ned Or alternatively kids should be allowed to experiment at school without it getting back to their parents unless it's something genuinely harmful (experimenting with gender is harmless). If a kid with vegan parents is trying meat, or a kid with Jewish parents is attending campus crusade for christ then I would hope their teachers would let the kid experiment in peace.

     @ned it's more like

     And this is why child rights are human rights.

     "Call me old-fashioned, but if | were a parent, I'd quite like to know whether my son, Sam, was showing up at school as Samantha."

     "If you don't already know, there's a reason she's not telling you.
     It's you. You're the problem."
