Leave it to the AZ GOP to re-run lessons in the “Cobra Effect”. And again. And again…

Awww, look at Republicans trying to control everything.

I’m over this. Let em. If I had a LGBTQIA kid I wouldn’t let them go to school with a bunch of breeders anyways.

Nope. No downside there. Everything will play out exactly as intended.

I am growing so very tired of this GOccP led legislature passing laws that really do nothing other than hurt students & public education. Their entire goal is to so damage public education that they aid in the privatising of education.

If your kid has to disclose something troubling to a “trusted adult” you need to check your relationship with your kid.

Can't WAIT to see how THIS turns Out... Stay tuned...

Excellent.
