by Corrie ten Boom:
So the line had stuck in my head. “Sex,” I was pretty sure, meant whether you were a boy or girl, and “sin” made (Aunt) Tante Jans very angry, but what the two together meant I could not imagine. And so, seated next to Father in the train compartment, I suddenly asked, “Father, what is sexsin?” He turned to look at me, as he always did when answering a question, but to my surprise he said nothing. At last, he stood up, lifted his traveling case from the rack over our heads, and set it on the floor.
“Will you carry it off the train, Corrie?” he said.
I stood up and tugged at it. It was crammed with the watches and spare parts he had purchased that morning.
“It’s too heavy,” I said.
“Yes,” he said. “And it would be a pretty poor father who would ask his little girl to carry such a load. It’s the same way, Corrie, with knowledge. Some knowledge is too heavy for children. When you are older and stronger you can bear it. For now, you must trust me to carry it for you.” - from The Hiding Place: The Triumphant True Story of Corrie Ten Boom.
We are asking our children to carry loads that are way too heavy for them. They should not be forced, as children, to see and feel the world through the lens of adults. Innocence is worth protecting and worth fighting for. We need to do our part as parents and caregivers to carry certain things for them until they are old enough to bear the load. - comment on social media.
Our current MB School Board does not see things this way.

The following is an exert from the article titled “Sex and Schools”
In California, instruction in “gender identity” begins from the moment children enter their special garden. State K-3 guidelines are clear on what young children are to be taught and why: “While students may not fully understand the concepts of gender expression and identity, some children in kindergarten and even younger have identified as transgender or understand they have a gender identity that is different from their sex assigned at birth.”[5] (Remember, these are the same children who believe in Santa Claus.) Apparently, all of this is why it is important to teach five-year-old children the meaning of words such as “trans,” “genderqueer,” “non-binary,” “gender fluid,” “gender-neutral,” “bigender,” etc. California school guidelines go on to encourage teachers to invite transgender adults to class as guest speakers, and the only required book to be read by California kindergarteners is My Princess Boy. The guidelines also prohibit parents from removing their children from this government-sponsored brainwashing.
Elect new School Board members in November who will protect our children and get back to teaching the 3 R’s.
