They might send them to a psychologist or some such but I’ve learned that most (especially in blue states) are in on the program. $$. What surgery does she want? Wings? Beak? Will she sport feathers? Demand a perch in the back of the classroom? Mice for lunch?There are very manipulative kids too—they get something out of this.

I still want to understand this whole "furries" phenomenon that's happening in highschools where kids insist they are cats or whatever and demand a litterbox. I really want to understand 1) how that's not a health code violation and 2) how it doesn't violate every other students rights not to have to see that. I am legitimately am confused by this.

I worked with an adult furry once. Mostly he did not like other people and he enjoyed the creative part of costume making. He could be something else for fun. He says children doing this as they are now is bizarre and disturbing.

They are bored. So much has been given to them at an early age that they no longer get pleasure dopamine hits on a regular basis. So they make up this crap.

Demand a perch in the back of the classroom! Good thing I had swallowed that gulp of coffee! Good one.

I think poor parents have been groomed also. "You must allow your child to be their true selves" has taken on a WHOLE new meaning...the pendulum has swung all the way and we need to bring it back to center. BTW, a good portion of the the rest of the planet ain't buying into this BS!
