CHARLY ARNOLT (HOST): Have you run into anything with your kids so far being in school or whatever, activities they participate in, where you see things that you're like holy crap what is going on with the world right now?
KRISTEN LOUELLE GAFFNEY (GUEST): I'm in California, so I have no choice but to put them into private school. It's a pretty penny, but it's worth it because I do not mess around with the public school system. I definitely hear stories amongst our peers, and it's pretty crazy what these kids are learning and what they're allowed to do in school. There's something called furbies where people go to the restroom in litter boxes.
ARNOLT: Heard about it.
GAFFNEY: And this is normalized. We're completely normalize—
ARNOLT: How weird is that? I mean, I don't care, like — let's just think about this for what it is. You are allowing your children, you are encouraging: Be who you are. Act like an animal and use a litter box in the bathroom. I mean, I just feel like as a parent I don't care how much I want you to have freedom of expression or be yourself. That is, I mean, that's just insane.
GAFFNEY: It's strange that we're normalizing and for example men playing in women's sports.
...
GAFFNEY: What at the end of the day we're doing is we're normalizing mental Illness, and it's very strange to me that everyone can just go to bed at night like this isn't happening in our world.
