Parents these days often shirk responsibility. They are so quick to blame everyone but themselves for everything that goes wrong or they perceive to be wrong. They blame the school or the teacher because their child is failing or not learning. They boycott Target because they are inclusive instead of being narrow-minded bigots. If you are worried about your child's education, supplement their learning yourself. If you are worried about something happening to them in a Target restroom, accompany them to the restroom yourself. Personally, I am more worried about my kids encountering these irresponsible bigots than I am them encountering a transgender person.
The truth of the matter is that this has nothing to do with an actual fear of something happening to your child. It is a homophobic fear on your part and a desire to press your agenda on everyone else. It is not the school's or teacher's responsibility to teach your children everything. It is your responsibility to make sure they attend school, that they behave appropriately while there, that they respect their instructors, that they do their homework and that you supplement their education with what you feel they should know. Likewise, it is not Target's responsibility to supervise your children in their restroom or to push your socially intolerant agenda. This isn't about you being stripped of your rights. It's about you attempting to strip others of their rights. Get off your high horse! Shop at Target or don't. I, and many others like me, will appreciate not having to wait behind you in line.
