As a proud Conservative and a defender of traditional family values, I am absolutely outraged by the latest attack on parents by liberal elites. Families have been ripped apart as parents fight for their children in the gender wars with some even losing custody of their own kids for refusing to subject them to dangerous treatments and surgeries.
But now there is hope…
Recently, Rep. Virginia Foxx introduced the Parental Right to Protect Act, which would prevent child protective services from punishing parents who refuse to consent to their child’s gender transition.
Parents should never be punished for protecting their children from 𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘀, 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲-𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 procedures.
That's why @virginiafoxx introduced the Parental Right to Protect Act: to help parents keep children safe.https://t.co/LzlLiwOKv0 pic.twitter.com/SHM6yVwYcA

“Parents have the right and responsibility to keep their children safe. This includes making decisions about life-altering medical treatments and interventions,” Foxx said in a press release. “Determining your child is not going to receive gender transition interventions is not abuse or neglect — it is a parent rightfully making a decision for his or her child. No system should remove a child, or investigate a family for abuse, based on this decision. Nor should a hospital or state be able to circumvent a parent’s right to decide whether his or her child should undergo gender-transition interventions.”
This is a direct attack on the rights of parents to raise their children according to their own beliefs and values. For too long, liberal activists have been pushing their dangerous agenda on our children, and now they want to take away the rights of parents who refuse to go along with it.
According to the DailyCaller, one California mother lost custody of her daughter over her refusal to transition her 15-year-old daughter, and an Illinois mother lost a custody battle with her ex-husband for refusing her 12-year-old daughter’s gender transition.
Some Democrats have advocated for parents who do not consent to their child’s gender transition to be charged with child abuse.
This, is the first step in the right direction, in my opinion. What do you think? Let me know in the comments below.
