Elon Musk to move company headquarters!
Guess what? Elon Musk is moving the headquarters of his companies, SpaceX and X (earlier called Twitter), from California to Texas.
Why? Because he thinks a new law in California might not be good for families and businesses.
What is the new law?
Earlier in California, USA, teachers had to inform parents when students changed their gender identity at school by changing their names or pronouns.
But now, a new law has been passed stating that the school does not have to tell the parents if a kid wants to use a new name or pronoun that feels right to them.
This is to help kids feel safe, especially if they don't feel supported by their families at home.
Some people think this rule is important to protect children's privacy, while others believe parents should always know what happens to their children.
Pronouns and gender identity.
Gender identity is all about how you feel inside. It means feeling like a boy, a girl, both, neither, or something else. Everyone should be able to be who they truly are and choose the gender that makes them happiest.
It's okay if someone feels different about their gender. For example, someone born a boy could feel like a girl as they grow up.
It's important to listen to how people feel and use the names and pronouns (like he, she, they) they like best.
Sometimes, a person's name or pronouns might not match how they look, and that's totally okay! Asking them politely is an excellent way to show you care and want to understand them better.
Elon Musk’s decision affects people!
If a famous person like Elon Musk does not support rules about gender identity, it can affect people’s views about the LGBTQ community and can cause them to face hatred.
If celebrities support and accept the LGBTQ community, then other people will accept them too.
Famous people can change how others think about things. It's too bad when they don't use their power to make things better for everyone.
