We passed a law clarifying teachers can't be fired for not informing parents if a student identifies as trans or gay. Teachers still have the right to inform parents, especially regarding health and safety. The law protects teachers who choose not to "snitch" on students. Some believe teachers should be penalized, even terminated, for withholding information from parents. But we feel teachers shouldn't be policing student conversations. There are instances where teachers affirm a student's transition without parental knowledge. While this issue is politically charged, principles matter, even if unpopular. We both hold deeply unpopular beliefs. It's important to be aware of the Democratic Party's brand challenges on these issues.

My daughter was taken from me at 16 by CPS and a school counselor, with the help of an LGBTQ group. They claimed I was abusive for not affirming her trans identity. Despite promising to use a male name, it wasn't enough. Instead of therapy, she was given testosterone, and the LGBTQ group used her to raise money. Transgender kids end up in foster care because the state takes them from their families. Parents are forced to affirm their child's identity or risk losing them. The abuse claim against me was proven false, but it was too late. My daughter suffered mentally and physically, and eventually took her own life. I urge you to stop promoting gender ideology to prevent other parents from experiencing this pain.

I have an issue when it comes to targeting our kids and trying to change their gender. I don't care if a 40-year-old person wants to undergo gender reassignment, but I don't want to hear about it, pay for it, or be forced to acknowledge their chosen identity. Leave me alone and stay away from our children.

The Department of Justice is coordinating with law enforcement to combat child abuse in schools. Changing a child's gender without parental notification is considered child abuse. Specifically, if a teacher attempts to change a five, six, or seven-year-old child's gender identity, the administration views this as child abuse and a violation of parental rights. This stance applies to the entire K-12 education system.

The government is implementing laws and rulings indicating they believe children belong to the government, not their parents. These policies are expected at the state, local, and federal levels under a Harris-Waltz administration. Many across the country now recognize the "idiocy" in California's stance. The district must do the right thing, even if the state does not. The government should stand up for parental rights, the safeguarding of children, and women's rights.

An investigation reveals that in New York, minors can seek gender-affirming care without parental consent, and several organizations facilitate this. The Ali Forney Center (AFC) prioritizes housing for minors in undisclosed locations, and does not contact parents. They advocate with the state and child protective services (CPS) against non-consenting parents, recognizing transphobia as abuse. The Office of Children and Family Services will investigate non-affirming parents based on anonymous complaints. Care for the Homeless works with AFC and the Institute for Family Health (IFH) to provide gender-affirming care, including surgeries, funded by Medicaid and CHIP. IFH, as a federally qualified health center, uses government funds to provide this care without parental knowledge. Some healthcare providers are concerned about potential lawsuits from individuals who later detransition. Organizations like AFC, Care for the Homeless, and IFH have received millions in federal funding. Concerns exist that a potential Trump administration could cut funding for these services, especially with Elon Musk potentially overseeing government spending.

- The school year in Virginia getting started, but there's already controversy over transgender issues. In Loudoun County Schools, two male students are suspended for their interaction with a female student who identifies as a male; the female recorded the encounter in the boys’ locker room. The students are accused of sexual harassment and sex-based discrimination; an attorney for the male student says the punishment is ten-day suspension and a no-contact order. - Five Northern Virginia districts face a federal education department complaint for failing to comply with a directive on gender identity policies. - 'the Virginia districts will have to defend their embrace of radical gender ideology over ensuring the safety of their students.' - Alexandria City Public Schools says its policies regarding the rights of all students to use restrooms and locker rooms in accordance with their gender identity will remain in place. - AMERICA FIRST Legal filed complaint against the five districts.

The Biden administration weaponized the Justice Department and Health and Human Services against my family after I blew the whistle on gender affirming care for minors at Texas Children's Hospital. They targeted me after a memo was sent out that said anyone who interferes with gender affirming care will be targeted by the federal government. I was indicted, accused of violating patient privacy laws by releasing patient names. I redacted the patient names and protected their identities. I was facing ten years in prison. The Justice Department was trying to crush us, but we didn't let them. The case was dismissed with prejudice. It was an indescribable relief. Accountability looks like the people responsible being held to account. The emotional toll, the fear, and the legal defense cost us almost $2,000,000.

Some individuals are pushing for a bill in Illinois that could lead to children being removed from their homes if parents object to certain medical treatments. A mother who lost custody of her child due to this issue believes the bill is extreme and hopes for a change in perspective. She has not seen her daughter in over two years but remains resilient. The bill is facing opposition in Illinois, with many citizens against the concept of gender identity and the potential harm caused by certain medical procedures. The mother believes accountability should lie with the doctors and hospitals involved in such treatments.

The speaker says some states, like California and Washington, may take children from parents who oppose gender-affirming care. They believe the trans issue played a significant role in the last election, particularly an ad criticizing Kamala Harris's stance. They claim Harris had little room to push back because gender-affirming care was mandated under a lawsuit settlement during her time as Attorney General. The speaker finds the issue of gender-affirming care for children, especially regarding age, to be complex. They admit the trans issue is relatively new to them, and they are still trying to understand aspects like pronouns. They recall an experience where their Hispanic chief of staff strongly advised against using the term "Latinx." They note that post-George Floyd and post-COVID, there was a push for more sensitivity in language and a rise in discussions around gender-affirming care, but the science around it seems contradictory.

Do you think that gender ideology should be taught to students in schools? No. The speaker mentions a partner who 'works for the feds' and fostered two kids, calling him a great dad. They asked themselves, 'if we had kids, would we be doing this, telling our kids about this stuff? Would we want them top that in school?' and decided against it, arguing that kids will learn anyway. He says, If I were a parent, I would not be teaching my children about transitioning. He wants kids to learn math, English, science, arithmetic, and to play soccer with neighbors. They'll learn that there's double daddy homes and double mommy homes. He is pro-family and wants the country to have a future, calling it the greatest country ever and opposing revamping systems that haven't worked elsewhere.

Parents have always affirmed their children, especially when their gender and identity expression aligns with their biological gender. However, when this doesn't happen, affirmation tends to decrease. This is the issue at hand with the TGI bill, which doesn't mention transgender and gender non-conforming individuals explicitly. Instead, it focuses on the child's gender identity and expression, as well as the parents' duty to affirm their children.

Washington Democrats wanted to take children away from their parents if they didn't agree with gender affirmation surgery. Now, Democrats in Minnesota are proposing a bill that could protect pedophiles from discrimination, similar to the LGBTQ+ community. They have acronyms like MAPS and YAPS, which normalize these ideas. It seems like they are attacking everything good, just, and innocent about our country and children. Why would they remove the exclusion unless they support it?

In 2021, our child was removed from our home by DCS, causing immense heartache. Despite efforts, we had limited visits with him during his time in foster care. We chose not to affirm his transgender ideology due to our Christian beliefs and research showing affirmation may not help. We believe parental rights must be protected in Indiana to prevent other families from facing similar challenges.

Parents have always affirmed their children, usually when their gender identity aligns with their biological gender. However, when this is not the case, affirmation tends to diminish. This is the issue at hand with the TGI bill, which does not mention transgender and gender non-conforming individuals explicitly. Instead, it focuses on a child's gender identity and expression, as well as the parents' duty to affirm their children.

The California legislature has passed four bills aimed at removing children from their homes and placing them in government systems, where everyone except parents will have knowledge about their personal struggles. This policy is about parental notification, not outing. Meanwhile, the attorney general is suing Chino Valley Unified School District, but the temporary order issued recently is just to maintain the current situation until a final decision is made. This decision will determine if the policies are legal, constitutional, and necessary for protecting children.

Speaker 0, who identifies as Ray Gallagher: Class of '97. I made it halfway through 1995, but for some reason, I was too ill behaved to even make it through Heather Ridge. I identify as Ray Gallagher, and I'm gonna go by Ray Gallagher for the rest of the speech. So you guys had six kids raped, and the first thing you thought to do was to start to ban free speech and require driver's licenses in order to stop citizens from calling you out on your bull. Well, it's not gonna work. Speaker 1: Mister Porter, I'm Speaker 0: gonna stop. I'm gonna stop Speaker 1: you right there. Speaker 0: I'm sorry. There is nothing disruptive about the content of my free speech. Do you wanna talk about Cohen versus California? Did you stop my time? You did. Speaker 1: It is stopped. Speaker 0: I'm gonna continue. No. It didn't stop. It's still counting. I'm looking at it. It's two minutes. Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you one more chance, and then I'm gonna ask you to sit down. Speaker 0: For what? Speaker 1: To abide by our new policy. Speaker 0: You can't ban specific words. My my particular view of your policies, the fact you got all these kids raped by a transgender person and then you keep pushing transgender stuff on children, is that your policy is completely out of line with America. Now this is a transgender flag, and I would like to show you demonstrably what America and the voters think about the transgender ideology being pushed on children. So that right there is what America thinks of your transgender policy four four three. Most people don't support this garbage. Literally support chopping off appendages of children and giving them puberty blockers that make them sterile. You're a monster, all of you, the ones that vote for it support this stuff. The board is out of line. The board's policies are out of line. You guys don't know what you're doing. You're pissing everybody off.

A Massachusetts couple, Isael Rivera and Ruth Encarnacion, face kidnapping charges for allegedly taking their five children, who were under DCF custody, across state lines. The case began when a pediatrician reported the couple to DCF for declining vaccinations for their infant, citing religious beliefs. DCF initiated a case, and after the parents refused a home visit, police and DCF allegedly surrounded their apartment. The family fled, and the children were later found unharmed in Texas and are now in the custody of Texas Child Protective Services. Rivera is being held without bail. Critics argue this is a violation of the family's rights, as vaccinations are not mandatory in Massachusetts.

Parents Defending Education president Nikki Neely says the Trevor Project has been crafting model school policies, including those concerning gender issues. These policies encourage districts to withhold information from families. According to Neely, these policies have been adopted in both blue and red states, such as Idaho, where a child's preference takes precedence over the family's. Neely claims that while Brinton worked at the Trevor Project, the organization collaborated with groups like the American School Counselor Association and the National Association of School Psychologists to create a policy implying that even if a child is suicidal, the family might not be entitled to that information. Neely finds this implication frightening and appalling.

Last year, leaked WPATH files revealed that clinicians privately acknowledged the potential regrets and severe adverse effects, including loss of fertility and psychological damage, associated with gender-affirming care for minors. In response, President Trump issued an executive order restricting puberty blockers, hormones, and surgeries for children, emphasizing the need to protect vulnerable youth. The order bans federal funding for gender-affirming care for minors, limits research grants, and directs new regulations from the Department of Health and Human Services. This move aligns with growing public opposition to gender ideology, as seen in recent bans in the UK and revised guidelines in Sweden and Finland. The overarching concern is the responsibility of society to safeguard children and guide them appropriately into adulthood, rather than allowing them to make irreversible medical decisions.

Serena and Joe Wales, two parents from Colorado, are suing a local school district after alleging their 11-year-old daughter was forced to share a room with a transgender student during an overnight field trip two years ago. The daughter was told she would be rooming with three female students, but one of them was a transgender girl. The daughter called her mother—who was serving as a chaperone at the event—and was later moved to a different room, with instructions not to discuss the reason. The Wells’ family joined as part of a case brought on behalf of four families. The couple initially tried to address the issue with the school district directly but felt unheard, ultimately turning to legal action two years after the incident. They say the case was dismissed by a Biden-appointed judge, Regina Rodriguez, with prejudice in August, who ruled that while parents may have the right to instill moral and religious values, they do not have the right to replace public education with their own personal views or to control every aspect of their children’s education. The Wells say the decision left them frustrated and indicates a broader concern that parents are excluded from information and decision-making about school policies. The case has now been appealed to the Tenth Circuit. Attorney Matt Sharp, senior counsel with Alliance Defending Freedom, represents the Wells and the other families. He explains that the plaintiffs want parental rights protected, for parents to be informed about policies, and for their requests—such as not having their child share a room with a transgender student—to be honored. The plaintiffs argue that the school district should respect girls’ privacy and protect parental rights, and they seek to have the policy enjoined and ultimately changed. During the discussion, Sharp notes additional concerns raised by another family in the suit: a boy was forced to share a cabin with a girl for an entire week, with a girl assigned to monitor the boys during showers, dressing, and changing. The Wells emphasize that this incident and others represent privacy violations affecting multiple children and highlight a perceived need for parental involvement in policy decisions. Serena, Joe, and Matt express that this case is a matter of parental rights, school transparency, and protecting students’ privacy. They say the issue relates to broader debates about opt-out rights and parental involvement in education. The conversation concludes with the expectation that the case will be closely watched at the Tenth Circuit.

They've lost custody of their 16-year-old daughter due to her belief that she was born in the wrong body. The parents disagreed with the school and hospital's decision to socially transition her. The child protection agency got involved, leading to a legal battle. The parents feel helpless and miss their daughter, who now lives in a government facility. They speak out to prevent other families from experiencing the same pain and emphasize the importance of parental love and support in a child's life.

Danielle Smith's new gender and pronoun policy is causing controversy. The Alberta Medical Association released an open letter stating that the decision to seek gender affirming care should be between a person and their doctor. They also mentioned that puberty blocking agents are not irreversible and have benefits. The surgeries targeted by the program were not happening, as bottom surgery is not available in Canada for patients under 18. Concerns were raised about creating a private registry of physicians providing gender affirming care as it is seen as a surveillance measure. The government did not consult with a child and youth advocate, and other medical associations have also opposed the program. The Alberta government sent out a poll asking whether parental consent should be required for abortions for those under 18, which is seen as an attempt to strip rights from young people. This puts trans kids at risk for political gain.

A therapist's client, a young teen entering puberty, understands that their gender does not align with their sex assigned at birth and wants to explore hormones or blockers. The supportive parents scheduled an endocrinologist appointment. The physician informed the parents that if SB 164 were to pass, providing gender-affirming care could lead to the doctor and parents being arrested and imprisoned. The client was devastated by the prospect of their care leading to the loss of their parents.

California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law preventing schools from informing parents if their children are on a medical pathway for gender transition. This law puts children at risk of irreversible medical treatments without parental consent. Similar actions in Britain have led to a ban on puberty blockers due to their harmful effects. Children and parents have the right to know about any potential gender dysphoria diagnosis. Schools should not promote the idea of being born in the wrong body. Action is needed to overturn this dangerous law in California to protect children and their parents.
