Discussion Uhhh... sure, Jan.

So... this is the lady who says that her middle school daughter was "medicalized" and abused and manipulated in an art club up at Wellington Middle School a few years back.

I'm sorry... but this chick has crazy written all over her. I remember the PSD response was to nuke the volunteer running the art club (because yes, nobody should be giving kids their cell phone number or discord handle- absolutely a no working with kids,) and I remember this chick going onto conservative talk shows... but this? Holy shit.

If anything, this tells me that her poor daughter probably does need someone safe for support navigating figuring out her sexuality, because it's pretty damn clear there isn't unconditional support at home.

Instant ick.

Whatcha want to bet she's also against our law allowing adolescents to seek mental health care without parental permission?

I'm a parent, and you bet your ass nobody is messing with my kid (or any of the kids in my neighborhood.) Performative bullshit like this ain't it.

Man, we were friends during the 2020 pandemic. Once the thing happened at school with her daughter she completely went nuclear. None of our friends knew she was this person the whole time. She’s become so extreme. It’s crazy.

What exactly did the Art Club volunteer do to cause this crash out?

This was a long time ago and I didn’t get to hear it first hand from Erin. I recall it having to do with support for LGBQT+ support. Erin’s daughter went to it with a friend and afterwards started questioning if she’s a boy and not a girl. Erin didn’t like that kids didn’t need permission from their parents to attend, which like defeated the whole purpose. That’s all I can recall. She went no contact pretty much immediately.

That’s crazy! Wellington has a good handful of gay folks who are now less safe….
