And where do you think the child learned that such an image could be “traumatizing”?

Here’s hoping the kid gets as far away from the source of traumatization (gonna go out on a limb and say it’s the mom here) upon turning 18.

Not that I believe for a second this child was “traumatised”.

Can we find some children in those fine states who are “‘traumatized’” by any appearance of gov abbott (or desantis, since those two are locked in some bromance to the bottom). Shouldn’t be too hard to discover such-like as many adults already are. (“Now Tiffany we’re going to show you a few pictures. Here is a scary clown…” “meh. he’s kinda funny looking” “…and here’s the governor” shrieeeeek!!)

Hard to believe that the ‘trauma’ in this situation is from the child.

Dungan wouldn’t say whether she found that poster objectionable, just that she wants to avoid “situations like that”

No need to plug that into Google Translate.

White Texan child racist AF parent “traumatized” by classroom photos of Black and White kids holding hands

Where do these nanowits come from, and why does anyone give them their way?

So I guess they’ll be banning Christian teachers from wearing a crucifix necklace, right? Since that’s a “symbol of personal ideology.”

File this under “Things that never happened for $1000, Alex”.

There is no way 1st grader was traumatized by said poster so much so they had to switch classes.

The PARENT may have seen it and got so butthurt they had the kid change classes.

If I am wrong about that, then that kid has been subjected to some truly radical and repugnant racial views.

No, that’s a cultural tradition and not even religious.

They were “carefully taught” to fear intermingling.

@thomdunn

now the parent wants the school to extend their prohibition against political displays to include a ban on “symbols of personal ideologies.”

I have one thing to say to that parent:
Racial purity is a personal ideology too, arsehole.

The parent was probably traumatised when their child started mildly questioning the family’s white supremacist beliefs.

Well so much for that 94%… it’s the 6% that’s important </s>

Same. The Respect fot Marriage Act* codified the Loving & Obergefell decisions into law. But someone (& someone’s money) could still try and get that in front of the SCOTUS. *(According to that Wiki article, a Gallup poll from 2021 said that acceptance of interracial marriage in the U.S. is 94%, and that it’s pretty much the same regardless of the U.S. region, including the South [I’ve anecdotally heard that being ascribed, in part, to more & more couples meeting in the U.S. military, then wh…

The parents sound like real snowflakes.

[docosc]

But I do feel really bad for the kid, being used by absolutely evil parents like this.

I’m guessing that children with dark skins is what she really wanted removed from her kid’s classroom.
