おもしろいのは特に2歳以下の子どもは実際に自分でトライをしたり親や保育者とのやりとりを通して発達していくので、コンテンツを見せるときは親が一緒に見て教え直してあげることが大事だ、というところです!リスクの話や3歳以上の話も興味深いですー! https://t.co/8olXipDrZs https://t.co/7cYtS7DgYX https://t.co/b3cLL6eSWH

@JamesEsses These kinds of stereotypes have always existed, but the trans BS just became a thing 5-10 years ago. Its brainwashing in schools and media, and young minds getting twisted in echo chambers on the internet.
