A kindergarten teacher in Florida spoke out against the state's Parental Rights in Education Act Tuesday, stating how upset he is he won't be able to share the experiences of his and his partner's lives with his students.
"It truly makes me feel like I am not trusted as a professional. I know my kindergarten standards through and through, and nowhere in our curriculum does it have anything about teaching sexual orientation or sexual identity," Cory Bernaert said while speaking with MSNBC."I am afraid for my colleagues, myself, and my students.
"State officials should encourage educators like Bernaert to have discussions with students, he said.Educators need to discuss their home lives with students to build meaningful and productive relationships, he argued."It scares me that I am not going to be able to have these conversations with my children ... I don’t want to have to hide that my partner and I went paddleboarding this weekend," the teacher said.
