Hi,
I spoke to GB News on what has been described as #CatGate and I wanted to take this opportunity to share the coverage from earlier this week with you.
‘This mess has frankly been shaped by activists... Schools are making fools of themselves by allowing themselves to be swayed.' Stella O'Malley reacts to a school teacher calling a 13-year-old girl "despicable" because she wouldn't accept that a classmate identified as a cat. #genderidentity #gender #school
As usual well said Stella! 👏
You’ve absolutely hit the nail on the head here. Stella!
Hate to say, my youngest used to hoot in his Spanish lessons. He was very bright, and bored. (He subsequently got too marks in this GCSE class and went on to Oxbridge).
When my husband and I learned of this aberrant behaviour at parents evening, we pulled him up on it, and things improved.
There was no question of our son identifying as anything other than a bored attention seeker. I’m not suggesting that this is always the case, by any means, but I do worry about the lack of structure and modern teaching ideology.
