Netflix introduces trans character in kids’ show called the “Baby-Sitters Club”
"The Baby-Sitters Club" is based on a popular book series by Ann M Martin. The tales centre around a group of adolescent girls who start a babysitting business. In the fourth episode of the series, one of the five babysitters, Mary Anne, is asked to care for a child named Bailey, who presented as a girl but was biologically male, reports say. Featuring what appears to be a transgender character is according to some, nothing more than propaganda that aims to confuse children.
“It is bad enough when the entertainment media seeks to indoctrinate adults into believing the falsehood that biological males can actually be, or become, female, and vice versa. But when they subject children to the same indoctrination, it is unconscionable,” said Peter Sprigg, senior fellow for policy studies at the Family Research Council in Washington, D.C., in an email to The Christian Post.
“I might believe an episode like the one featured in ‘The Baby-Sitters Club’ had an educational function if it talked about the psychological problems that accompany or give rise to gender dysphoria, or if it warned of the negative health effects of puberty-blocking drugs, wrong-sex hormones, and gender reassignment surgery. Without that information, it’s nothing but propaganda — dangerous propaganda,” he explains.
Writing in The Stream on Sunday, commentator Jonathon Van Maren noted that LGBT advocates have effectively colonised children’s entertainment and they are particularly adept at telling compelling narratives that influence impressionable minds.
