What happened and what continues to happen is you have transgender kids in schools. And they get bullied. And they get ostracized. And it&rsquo;s tough for them.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<h2>PREVIOUSLY &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.towleroad.com\/2016\/05\/obama-administrations-transgender-guidance-schools-read\/\"><em>Here is the Obama Administration&rsquo;s Sweeping Transgender Guidance for Schools: READ IT<\/em><\/a><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonblade.com\/2016\/06\/01\/obama-trans-bathroom-issue-will-be-settled-by-the-courts\/\">As The Washington Blade notes,<\/a> President Obama also said that he decided to weigh in on transgender students&rsquo; rights because schools around the country were seeking guidance from the federal government:<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I just wanted to emphasize to you, though, it&rsquo;s not like I woke up one day and I said you know what we really need to do is let&rsquo;s start working on high school bathrooms,&rdquo; Obama said. &ldquo;I was thinking about ISIL. And I was thinking about, you know, the economy and I&rsquo;m thinking about jobs. But one of the things that, as president, you learn is that you don&rsquo;t choose the issues all the time. The issues come to you. And then you have to make your best judgment about what you think is right, and I&rsquo;ve expressed what I think is the best judgment that is consistent with our traditions and our laws.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>President Obama also said that the &ldquo;Golden Rule&rdquo; should play a key role in how we view transgender issues:<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;My answer is that we should deal with this issue the same way we&rsquo;d want it dealt with if it was our child. And that is to try to create an environment of some dignity and kindness for these kids. And that&rsquo;s sort of the bottom line.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I have to say what&rsquo;s in my heart, but I also have to look at what&rsquo;s in the law, my best interpretation of what our laws and our obligations are, is that we should try to accommodate these kids so they are not in a vulnerable situation.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Addressing objections to transgender rights based on religion, President Obama said,<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Now, I understand that people, you know, for religious beliefs or just general discomfort might disagree.&nbsp;And I&rsquo;m not the one who&rsquo;s making a big issue of it. But if the school districts around the country ask me, &lsquo;What do you think we should do?,&rsquo; then what we&rsquo;re going to do is tell them let&rsquo;s find a way to accommodate them in a way that makes sure that these kids are not, you know, excluded and ostracized.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I have profound respect for everybody&rsquo;s religious beliefs on this.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Watch <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=grq0&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">video<\/a> of Obama&rsquo;s town hall, below.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.towleroad.com\/2016\/06\/obama-transgender-2\/\">President Obama: Let&rsquo;s Create Environment of &lsquo;Dignity and Kindness&rsquo; for Transgender Kids &ndash; WATCH<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.towleroad.com\/\">Towleroad<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=2f_HUQIGM9w:kz7yLgaiOdw:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=2f_HUQIGM9w:kz7yLgaiOdw:I9og5sOYxJI\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?d=I9og5sOYxJI\" border=\"0\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=2f_HUQIGM9w:kz7yLgaiOdw:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=2f_HUQIGM9w:kz7yLgaiOdw:gIN9vFwOqvQ\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?i=2f_HUQIGM9w:kz7yLgaiOdw:gIN9vFwOqvQ\" border=\"0\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=2f_HUQIGM9w:kz7yLgaiOdw:cGdyc7Q-1BI\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?d=cGdyc7Q-1BI\" border=\"0\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=2f_HUQIGM9w:kz7yLgaiOdw:YwkR-u9nhCs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?d=YwkR-u9nhCs\" border=\"0\"><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/towleroad\/feed\/~4\/2f_HUQIGM9w\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" alt=\"\"><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~r\/towleroad\/feed\/~3\/2f_HUQIGM9w\/\" class=\"autohyperlink\">feeds.towleroad.com\/~r\/towleroad\/feed\/~3\/2f_HUQIGM9w\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Obama: Let\u2019s Create Environment of \u2018Dignity and Kindness\u2019 for Transgender Kids \u2013 WATCH During a PBS town hall, President Obama made a strong show of support for transgender rights and debunked the idea that he is forcing the issue onto the country.
