Well she read a heavily politicized book in a region that wouldn't like it. Wasn't part of the curriculum, kinda not worth keeping her on. No reason to keep someone who intentionally creates headaches.
- Presumably she did it as an intentional protest against stupid rules?
  
  Sometimes people have to stand up to the bullshit.
  
  Well she brought kids into it. Its one thing to picket or whatever, but you don't screw with kids.
- Can you even explain what is gender identity? Since you are so against it. What is it and why shouldn’t kids learn about it?
