Central Indiana parents share their thoughts about a new law that requires schools to notify them when a student requests a different name or pronouns.
Just in case you thought this was only a Florida problem.
I don’t think there’s additional cruelty. You can’t really compare the danger outing trans kids to the annoyance of requiring to report every mundane nickname a kid requests.
It’s not a comparison, rather it’s a further illustration that it’s all about controlling what EVERYONE can or can’t do. If anything, if I was a kid in this state, I’d be requesting a new nickname every week, every day, even.
When cruelty is the point, bonus cruelty isn’t a dissuasive argument.

All I’m saying is that they don’t care about collateral damage.
