The father spoke before the Poudre School District (PSD) board in Northern Colorado, explaining how his daughter asked to join an Anime art club at Wellington Middle School. Trusting that the district would provide a safe, age-appropriate environment, the father allowed his daughter to join.
But just eight months later, his 12-year-old daughter attempted suicide, and he says not a single PSD reached out to the family to understand what in his daughter’s school environment may have contributed to her decision to end her life.
It wasn’t until the father talked to other parents who had had similarly horrifying experiences that he realized the anime art club was actually a gender and sexuality club. His daughter said that students were told they didn’t have to tell their parents what was going on in the club, but the school accused his daughter of lying about being told to keep the information a secret.
The father accused the principals of supporting and encouraging organizations “that they know bring with them a highly elevated suicide risk.”
Erin Lee, another parent, spoke next, explaining that her 12-year-old daughter also attempted suicide after joining the same PSD art club. Lee alleges her daughter was secretly indoctrinated in a confidential Gender & Sexuality Alliance meeting “disguised as ‘Art Club’.”
Lee explains that on the first day her daughter attended the club, an outside group was brought in to present to the children. The guest speaker allegedly talked to the children about sexuality, polyamory and suicide, telling the young impressionable minds that youth who identify as transgender are “more likely to kill themselves.”
Lee says her daughter tried to commit suicide about six months after this incident.
“How many more kids will you cause harm to? How many more families will you break? How many more children threaten to take their own lies before you stop this hyper-sexualization and secret gender transition of our children? This community looks forward to your answers to these questions,” Lee concluded.
It’s heartbreaking to hear about these incidents.
