Children's Rights at the Crossroads
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Significant barriers to inclusion persist for 2SLGBTQIA+ children in Alberta, with legislation limiting school support for 2SLGBTQIA+ students taking effect in the province in 2025. Transgender and non-binary identities are specifically targeted by this legislation, with the government restricting the ability for youth to use different names or pronouns at school without prior parental permission. Tensions between parental rights claims and children’s rights have a long history in Alberta discourses, but there is a growing movement in education policymaking across Canada and the United States that seeks to elevate parental rights into law. Parental rights movements refute the rights of children as enumerated in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and seek control over their sexual orientation and gender identity. Through a narrative literature review and Critical Discourse analysis, we examine the key values concerning children’s rights and parental rights that underpin anti-trans policymaking in the Alberta context and explore pedagogical possibilities that center children’s rights in anti-trans school contexts.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
