If the counselor at my child's school is like some of the ones I've seen protesting this law, I could think of several reasons

You obviously haven’t read his posts in this very thread. Try reading and comprehending. Seems difficult for you but at least try.

The ultimate solution is simple, actually.
Teachers learn to simply teach.
Don’t throw in politics or social constructs.
You teach math? Then teach math.
I graduated from elementary school 20+ years ago and I had no idea if my teachers were married or lived somewhere else besides the classroom.
Modern teachers and teaching methods are abysmal. We have continued to decline year on year.
that’s it. very simple.

These dumbfricks did this to their own profession.

Belle even has corrupting young people one mind at a time in her profile.
Based on the libsoftiktok I would never let a small child near a school counselor without meeting with them first.

That would entirely depend on how I viewed the particular guidance counselor. But a parent should have the ability to opt out of they wish.
It's their children, not the school's or government's.
I think this is the underlying issue that you don't seem to understand in terms of why people are so up in arms over this.
It's not directed at you personally, or even at your profession. It's at the prevailing idea on the left that the school system has more input on the raising of a child than the parents.
Does this happen in all school districts? Of course not. But it has been happening in a disturbing number across this country, and it's only getting worse.

I’m not talking about for sex education or for some gender discussion.
Are you honestly at odds with that? I think that’s a bit much.
I mean, can you point me to more than a handful (if that) of social work or counseling programs that don't advocate strongly for concepts of equity, antiracism, anti whiteness, is supportive of trans issues and espouses the idea that trans lifestyles are legitimate and those against any of these things are problematic?
Assuming not, that's why I'd opt out of my kid talking to a guidance counselor.

I'll ask you the same question I asked Spleen:
If it isn't happening, then why the massive pushback from the left on this law in Florida? Why did Disney get involved?
The proper response, if it truly doesn't happen and doesn't matter, should have been "Ok DeSantis, make your stupid law and virtue signal to your constituents, because it's a pointless law".
But that's not what happened. Why?

And that explains our entire media and tech institutions crashing down on a single account that does nothing but repost public comments

We can be honest and say that many parents (often the worst ones) want the schools to be more active in raising their kids so they don’t have to do it themselves.

But with this law that should no longer be an issue and should weed those folks out.
So there’s not really a good reason to opt-out.

There are recent news reports of schools putting out posters stating things like “if your parents don’t accept you, I’m your mama now”.
The children do not belong to the school and they should not have more control over the child than the parents.
Why would anyone argue otherwise?

frick if I know. It's dumb. This all reminds me of the Satanic Panic of the 80's...blown completely out of proportion

And the reality is that a lot of those are going to be too lazy/uninvolved to opt out.

Who are you to determine if a parent's reasoning is "good?"
Posted on 4/21/22 at 10:11 am to BluegrassBelle
There’s a good reason if those people are still counselors. You just admitted to that.
