šŸŒŽ Uncle Joe is gettin' it done

Wife has a 7th grade girl that has requested to be called ā€œtheyā€ and ā€œthemā€. She refuses, but it seldom comes up. Sheā€™s being very conscious to just refer to her by her first name even if speaker of her in 3rd person, ie would someone hand Jessica a microscope. Do you know how hard it is to remember to call 1 kid a pronoun different than what they are when you have 130 students each day? Redunkulous. Itā€™s all for attention the girl isnā€™t getting elsewhere.

I know of someone who teaches high school. They have a kid who goes by different pronouns based on the day, and they even want to use different names. My friend just calls them by the legal name on their paperwork at all times. It's a mental illness that we are no longer allowed to call a mental illness or treat like one.
