Seattle Children's Groomer Hospital
I work at this Children's hospital in the PNW. Was devastated today when I learned that they are holding drag queen story hours with our patients and their families.
Call me naive, but up until the last two weeks I had believed our staff were working in the best interests of all kids.
I really need prayer fot my next steps. My husband would not be on board with me causing a disruption and losing my job. I am feeling like i need to speak out, but the leadership has basically cut off all forms of dissent and sends us emails about how supportive we are of all the alphabet people.
Which way can you help the most children the most and still refuse to participate in the harmful practices? WuTangFlu2020 has a good point. In a general hospital you might avoid abortions, for instance, by working in other areas. In a specialty hospital, maybe not. Someday, people will wake up from this nightmare and there will be a terrible need for caregivers to undo the damage. If you have to bow out now I'm sure you can find another job. You don't have to make a scene in leaving, and in fact if you do it will tarnish your credibility as a witness to look like a crank.
