Daycare Workers Fired for Refusing to Call a Girl a Boy

John is preschool girl in Houston, Texas.  Her two dads have decided to change her name, cut her hair and call her John. Two Christian employees at Lighthouse Learning Center were fired because they would not call her a him.

One of the fired employees, Madeline Kirksey, said that the child sometimes would call herself a boy and other times a girl. She also would tell other children not to call her a boy.  Kirksey reached out to CPS over her concern that this new gender role was “being forced upon the little girl”.

The school sent out these guidelines to their employees:

Kirksey told Breitbart Texas in an interview, that the problem was not so much with the transgender issue as it was with telling young children that the little girl was a boy when she was not, and with calling her “John” (not the name given) when that was not her name.

She, and another worker who does not want to be identified, were fired from theChildrens’ Lighthouse Learning Center in Katy, Texas, a city just west of Houston.

The school distributed guidelines to the teachers called “How to Handle Transgender Students.” The printed guidelines were obtained from the internet and can be read at thislink.

The guidelines and the instructions given the teachers included six rules, one of which was “Help defend their dignity.” Another, was to “Educate yourself and your students.” The Christian worker said she did not believe it “was our job,” to thrust the issue on the small children of other parents. She said the school should not force their beliefs on the children, or on her, or upon other parents.

Kirksey believes “talking to other people’s children who are under the age of 18 about being transgender,” is wrong.
