Ever notice how when the news media writes about a trans student using the bathroom of their gender identity, the media focuses on those who are against the trans student.
When the news focuses only on the negative it makes it sounds like that everyone has a problem with trans students instead of only an isolated few parents who are objecting.

BOISE, Idaho (KBOI) - Two Boise parents said they pulled their student from school at South Junior High after another student, who is transgender, was allowed to use the girls bathroom.
Pauline Adams and Jacob Smith were upset when they found out from their daughter last week that a transgender student was allowed to choose the bathroom they preferred.
KBOI asked the couple why this isn't an issue for those who already use the facilities and why some people might say this doesn't seem like a big issue.From all the news articles that I have read most of the reporters just report about the upset parents and don’t ask questions or interview other parents who have no problem with trans students.
When the news focuses only on the negative it makes it sounds like that everyone has a problem with trans students instead of only an isolated few parents who are objecting.
