(CBN) – A couple in Woodburn, Oregon is suing their school district after they discovered their eight-year-old son was asked repeatedly by his teacher if he was transgender. The parents, who are keeping their identity private, are suing the district for nearly $1 million because they say their son’s second-grade teacher held him back from recess on multiple occasions to personally ask him if he believed he was really a girl. They said the teacher also gave their son reading materials, videos, and other resources

The mother found out about the one-on-one conversations when she found the books her teacher had given her son in his backpack. “He feels different now, he feels confused.
