The vast majority of parents oppose schools teaching their children transgender ideology, polling conducted last month by Parents Defending Education shows.
The polling, first shared with The Daily Wire, shows that 75% of parents do not support teachers providing instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity to elementary school students. Additionally, a large majority of parents indicated they opposed teachers pushing transgender identity on kids behind their parents’ backs, as has happened across the country.
“This poll shows overwhelming opposition to school personnel withholding information from parents about their child’s gender identity at school,” Parents Defending Education Director of Outreach Erika Sanzi told The Daily Wire. “It’s refreshing to see even more confirmation that people think this ubiquitous trend of facilitating gender transitions behind the backs of parents is complete madness and needs to stop.”
Covering a wide range of topics from DEI to transgender policies, the polling from Parents Defending Education shows that parents want more oversight of what is happening in their children’s classrooms.
The poll surveyed 1,000 parents across the country who have children under the age of 18.

I have two in HS at this time, and they have been raised in the church. We discuss these sorts of topics frequently, so that they are both very clear. They know to be polite, to be kind to others and to mind their manners. Simply, there are only two sexes, male and female, created by God. Anything to the contrary is a mental health issue, and my children are very clear that they do not need to involve themselves in someone else’s delusion.
They also know they are to come to me and their mother if any sort of “instruction” regarding this comes about. I have also sent email and correspondence to be added to their school files that they are not to be instructed with this trans ideology or the rest of this nonsense. So far, there have been no issues. The looney left got thrown out the door on November 5, and I am looking forward to a return to normal behavior.
I agree! You are a good parent. What a shame we don’t have more like you.
I agree. So many have no parents or none who give a rip and show them no home training at all.
