Parenting with Pride aims to address anti-LGBTQ policies in schools.
When Florida parent Rose Taylor discovered that her son’s new teacher would not use his preferred pronouns, it shattered Taylor’s perception of safety in her local North Florida school.
The comment sounded off alarm bells for Taylor: “Adults don't get special rules for you, especially that go against your personal rules.” "No one's attacking kids for their sexual orientation or their gender identity," Martin said. Instead, he noted that some constituents and legislators do not believe young kids should be having conversations related to gender or sexual orientation in the classroom.
"I realized that I had a story to tell, that I had this incredible child that I was given to raise, and he changes hearts and minds everywhere he goes." Now, as the Parents and Families Support Manager for Equality Florida, Solomon hopes Parenting for Pride can help parents address efforts to restrict representation in classroom content or restrict how students can express themselves in schools.When Jennifer Solomon's son wanted to wear dresses, she looked for resources for her and her son. She then founded a local advocacy group to build a community of support for families like her own.
