Conversation I overheard between two kids I teach in an after-school program:

“What did [my first name] say we’re supposed to do?”
“He said we..”
“You can’t call him ‘he’! He’s a girl!”
“But she wears boys’ clothes!”

To paraphrase Andrea Gibson, some days it feels like I’m the best education on ‘self’ these kids are ever gonna get.
