No one "changes the sex of a child." Surgery and hormones can only eliminate the sex of a child. These hormone and surgical procedures may make girls resemble boys or boys resemble girls but it cannot alter birth genetics. The children (or adults) who undergo these procedures are rendered permanently sexless. They cannot ever have any children of their own. They will be medically dependent for the remainder of their lives, and if emerging statistics are proven correct, those lives may end by their own hand sooner rather than later. This currently fashionable fascination with transgenderism is an elaborate hoax and fraud that is cruel beyond measure.

• As a parent I have the right to abuse my child,

vs...

• Children should be removed from abusive households.

➛ You are correct and your friend is wrong.

"Gender affirming" is mangled language to disguise child abuse.

A parent has no right to determine their child's gender, God already decided before birth.

I agree with you Rucker & it’s simple to me, no unnecessary surgeries or medications that change a child’s body FOREVER should be allowed by law!

There’s plenty of time for that child to make that PERMANENT life altering decision once they are adults?!?

When I was a kid I was a HUGE tomboy & I truly wished I was a boy, thank God my parents knew it was just a phase & was happy to be a woman & have 3 children & now 12 grandchildren.

Thank God there wasn’t gender affirming care back then & thank God my parents knew better!

Why is it so hard for people to understand that CHILDREN should never make permanent life altering decisions???

Absolutely correct. It is almost unbelieveable just how blind some people are to commonsense principles - wokeism is a cult that has effectively brainwashed its adherents into believing what is evil (defined by God), as good and what is good (defined by God), as evil.

I have some experience with Child "Protective Services" I'd like to share. I worked as a mental health therapist for many years for the county - this was in California. Our primary clients were drug/alcohol addicted and our job was to help them get into sobriety and be 100% clean. We had many cases with CPS. In all the years I worked for the county there were only 2 people who ever met with me. One man met with me to discuss our mutual clients whenever I requested it. He was a great guy who was sincerely interested in the well-being of both child and clients. The rest of them never even returned my phone call. We ran a day program that met Monday thru Friday, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. My point here is that we saw them 5 days a week for 6 hrs every day, a total of 30 hrs. per week for minimum 6 months, and some were in our program several years. CPS saw our clients once or twice a week for 30 min. or so. Yet, they thought they knew more about our clients than they did. I should add that they never received therapy in CPS but our program had them in groups for minimum 3 hrs every day plus one hour a week of individual therapy or more if needed, every week. One day, our dept learned some thing about CPS due to a local newspaper blowing the whistle on the CPS workers. It came out that: one CPS worker went to Thailand on vacation to pay for a child prostitute. Another one borrowed the car of a co-worker and later found out he had driven the car to Mexico across the border and bought an entire carload of drugs there, came back and sold them all in California. Those were the 2 I remember best but there were other such infractions by numerous other CPS employees. The dept. head did absolutely nothing. One woman, who was a very honest and good person who loved children, blew the whistle. For this, instead of having her information followed up on and looking into these infractions, she was put on leave of absence for 2 yrs IIRC and finally she was fired without pay/retirement, etc. Out of everyone who worked there at the county mental health dept. myself and only one other person ever called her to see how she was doing. I had a client, a very nice, sweet young woman, about 22 y.o. who didn't drink never had used any drugs, not MJ or anything. She loved her baby and when she was about to give birth to this first baby, she had horrendous pain and a girlfriend told her to smoke a joint it will help with the pain. She took 3 hits, that was it. For this, she had her child taken from her for 1.5 yrs. She was my client the entire time and it took about 3 months before they ever even let her hold her child and then only for 10 minutes, once a week for a long time. By this time, I was ready to quit but stayed because I didn't want to abandon her, she had bonded with me and trusted me and needed someone who was on her side. Finally, she got her baby when he was 1 and a half YEARS OLD. That was my experience with CPS and I've since then heard more horror stories from parents. As well, Pres. Bill Clinton started a police in the 90s where CPS workers got a $40,000 bonus for confiscating a child from "abusive" parents. Needless to say, the cases of "abuse" went sky high and CPS workers became rather wealthy from this. I think CPS needs to be cleaned out, guilty culprits need to be tried in court of law for crimes against humanity and their wealth confiscated and divided up among all the parents whose lives they have destroyed - because a parent never forgets having their child taken, nor does the child and you can't get those years back, to say nothing of arrested development in the children. I don't think any parent should lose their child to CPS - with one exception - (2) if the parents is guilty of torture or some such on their children and (2) if parents want to foist gender reassignment surgery on their children. I feel VERY strongly about this, it utterly destroys a child and there is no changing it back. You can't get back the body parts that are cut off.

Mr. Rucker, I completely agree with you, and this "conservative" makes me wonder just how conservative he really is. I'm suspicious of a wolf in sheep's clothing. I don't know one single conservative who would allow their child to undergo sexual reassignment surgery, NOT ONE. That's my 2 cents. Mr. Rucker, thank you for writing this article and bringing it to our attention.

100% agree with you - and whoever you were debating is an idiot if they can’t tell the difference. We DO take away kids in abusive home. Every state does. This is EXACTLY that, which is obvious to anyone with two brain cells to rub together.

First, there is no such thing as changing anybody's sex. We are born male or female and there is no choice in this just as there's no choice in the identities of our parents, where we live and virtually anything that will come to define our lives.

Our children do NOT belong to any of us as parents and none of us have the right to claim them as though they are slaves. Certainly, no Govt. or group of humans has any right to claim children.

Parents are God-appointed GUARDIANS of the souls of children and we raise them to become people of God as adults to spread Faith in God and for most to become GUARDIANS of the souls of children, themselves. No GUARDIAN HAS ANY QUALIFICATION TO ALLOW TEMPORARY INSANITY, DELUSIONS and/or anguish inherent to GROWING PAINS OF THE YOUNG to MANGLE, MOLEST, MUTILATE in an erroneous effort to find happiness, joy, balance.

The fact of Earth is the presence of evil and when it attacks the innocence and sanctity of children, evil deserves to lose those children.

I agree with you! What is wrong with that “Conservative’s” thinking? There is a clear difference: one is child abuse and the other is protecting children. Only a few years ago, if a parent exhibited Munchausen by Proxy, their kids would be snatched away, now it seems some people are encouraging and applauding this form of child abuse! Absolutely outrageous and disgusting.

We fought FGM years ago and we’re labeled anti-Muslim because we wanted to prevent young girls from being brutally butchered and very few Americans paid attention. Physicians in the US were performing this. Now they’re doing full mastectomies and breast removals on minors, chemical castrations, cancer causing life committed hormone drugs-on a group that 9 out of 10 GROW OUT OF their confusing after puberty, 2/3 have made at least one suicide attempt, and suicidal tendencies increase by 20% in those that go through transition. This is a serious mental health issue that should be treated with therapy and careful oversight but the LGB community forced this out of the DSM and treatment protocol denying their own community real and necessary treatment. Only Adults should be making life altering adult decisions. We need absolute Parental Rights and we need absolute laws prohibiting mutilation and chemical castration.

What is happening is a form of medical trafficking to disassociate young victims from their physical reality. Our God given sex is now merely a tool to usher in a dystopian tranhumanist future. Welcome to the world of vaxxed, neutered and chipped.

The cold biological truth is that sex changes are impossible.

Every single cell of the human body remains coded with one's birth gender.

FOR LIFE.
