New Jersey 2nd graders

I briefly perused the 66 page NJ education standards.

General takeaway: If you are raising your boy like a boy or girl like a girl, rest assured NJ is here to tell your child you're doing it wrong!
So you would have a problem if your daughter rode motorcycles and wanted to be a pilot or if your son liked cooking and wanted to be a nurse? Traditional gender roles are the only things questioned in this standard. Here is the homework for 2nd graders after the Pink, Blue, and Purple Lesson.

This is a video being shown to 9 year olds

That tweet says it's a video from Amaze and that NJ students are watching videos from Amaze, but it doesn't say the students are watching that video as part of the curriculum. If you can provide a link to the porn video being referenced in the educational materials of NJ, I will admit I am wrong.

@globalhawk weren’t you the one last weekend railing on me because I only showed one example of young grade schoolers being taught this subject and how the Florida law was a waste of legislation because it just doesn’t happen?

And if you don’t like the Fox link in OP, here’s another


And Google will return many more

2 cases!?!?! Thank God you and FL were there to save the kids. LOL! 🤣. You sure showed @globalhawk

I agree with you that the actual 2nd grade curriculum is not nearly as bad as the FOX story makes them out to be.

Once they get into 5th grade there are things that are not age appropriate, though.

Which standards do you think are not age appropriate for 5th grade?

In 2019, New Jersey enacted a measure that required public schools to implement an LGBTQ curriculum for students in grades five through 12, becoming the second U.S. state to do so after California.

Go two panels above in the same lesson, which btw, is listed for first graders. It depicts a blue and a pink card, lesson being either card would be ok for a boy or girl. In my family I would tend to reserve pink for my daughter in clothing and style. I also would not put my son in a dress. Horrible me: stereotype. Poor kids are confused as ever.

As far as profession, they can be whatever they think they want to be.

Pink for boys is similar to boys wearing dresses?

They're both about gender stereotypes, right?

Go to 2.1.2.SSH.1 of the 66 pg. document. It talks about how dress may be used to express yourself and how gender stereotypes may limit that behavior.

Well, I think parents have the right to limit their son from wearing a dress.

The point isn’t that you can’t be as much of a frightened conservative as you want - the point is that they’re teaching kids not to bully other kids who make different decisions.

Do the standards say that the child should wear clothing their parents don't approve of?

The best part of this is that parents are actually starting to pay attention to what is happening at school with their kids.
Letting right wing media tell them what they want parents to think is actually being taught in schools isn't paying attention to what is happening at school with their kids. Maybe helping their kids with their homework, or looking over their assignments when they bring them home would be a far better way of doing that.
 
Sure it is. Evidence that this video is what they want shown in classrooms? Because encouraging watching porn certainly isn't what was written in the standard.
Based on the comments of the authors, if you go to the curriculum for the 2nd grade, there are links to this site. I started the process of posting but I would have to drop box the document, spend 30 minutes posting it…all to have you idiots comment with a laughing emoji.

It’s there, go search it

It's evidence that Republicans often respond to the headlines without reading the links included in the articles they share. If you did, you would see the conservative hysteria in this case is not warranted.

I hate to tell you but this issue has way more support on the GOP side. This issue will hurt democrats badly. I’ll enjoy every minute of it

Oh, I didn't know that this portion of the standards was limited to schoolyard bullies ... cuz it's not.
 
Expand the Twitter post and start digging. It’s in there
Here is the part of the Twitter comments your are referring. If you follow the link in the post there is no reference to the video. If you read the responses to her post others agree with me the video is not listed in the curriculum. Holly Schepisis is the New Jersey State Senator, representing the 39th legislative district.

 
The same people on this board that thought it was a major waste of time and money for Iowa to enact laws about transgenders in sports, don’t think it’s a waste of time and money for a school to create and enact this curriculum.

Personally, I think both were/are a waste of resources.
