I'm an educator and this week is the first week of classes for many schools. I have met a bunch of new students, and I am getting to know them. Today, I met a 10 year old who uses they/them pronouns. Many of their classmates don't even know what pronouns are, and other teachers have first called them "he" and did a double take and then called them "she."
My coworker told me the kid uses they/them pronouns but when the student isn't within earshot calls them she and her. I am trying to keep it consistent and respectful by using they/them both when near the student and when away from them.
Anyway, this is the youngest gender neutral person I have ever met. Am I going to run into more of these kids in my career? Is this truly a trend? Do kids who start transitioning(?) this young detransition? Most they/thems I have met are in their 20s. I know a few gender neutral teenagers but this has just blown my mind.

It's like we are living in Shakespearean times. Kids these days are so cultured and sophisticated :)

Please tell me this is bait.
I have a goddamn medical condition. When I told my parents as a kid that I believed I was "transsexual," that's what everyone knew it was. Not this shit.
I never asked to be part of this slippery slope.
