Moms For America Statement on NEA’s Proposed Change of the Word ‘Mother’ to ‘Birthing Parent’

Branson, MO – Today, Moms for America®

released the following statement after the National Education Association (NEA), which represents teachers’ unions, proposed changing the word “mother” to “birthing parent,” in its contracts.

“Not surprisingly, the NEA once again weaponizes the teachers’ unions to promote a radical, liberal agenda in schools,” said Moms for America Senior Director, Quisha King. “Changing the word ‘mother’ to ‘birthing parent’ is not only ridiculous and disgusting, but it clearly shows the lack of common sense and disconnect that the NEA has with the American family. Even the term ‘chest-feeding’ goes against the morality and principles of common sense. The progressive agenda that the NEA embraces shows that it will listen to the politics first before the students, teachers, and schools it is supposed to represent.

It is obvious that the NEA has used its unions to protect liberal issues like critical race theory and transgenderism. It severely endangers our boys and girls with these ideals and it disincentivizes its members to actually listen to parents and students.

At Moms for America, we work hard to provide resources for concerned parents about their schools and what is being taught in them. For example, our Mom’s Guide to Parental Rights explains the legal rights that parents have when it comes to the school system, school board, and classroom.

As always, Moms for America will continue to fight to protect our children in schools, and keep our moms informed of how they can take back the power from the anti-American movement.”
