This is why we can’t have nice things in the United States.

Parents who willfully abuse their children into believing they are transgenders are now suing schools because they are unfit parents.

That was the case with a 5-year-old, yes that is correct, a 5-year-old “transgender” who attended a charter school in St. Paul, Minnesota.

The parents “thought that their 5-year-old boy, who now identifies as a girl, would learn and thrive. But instead, the parents alleged that the school violated their child’s civil rights, by not protecting against gender-based bullying and hostility.”

How does a 5-year-old child even understand the concept of gender? Why are they even discussing it and how do they even know what a ‘transgender’ person actually is or what that means?

This is beyond disturbing that the school is paying a price for these parents who abuse their child but it’s happening,

as CBS Minnesota reports:

In the early spring of 2016 their story went public, and was discussed openly at school board meetings. At the time, David Edwards told reporters, “we know from what he has shown us so far that we’re going to need some protections in place in public school.” Edwards said that the school’s teachers attempted to foster a welcoming and inclusive class environment, but their actions were later blocked by school leadership. Earlier this summer the school was served with a two-count, civil discrimination lawsuit which demanded policy and training changes. To avoid a costly and protracted court battle, the two sides chose to enter into mediation. The action proved successful, as an agreement was recently announced that holds the school to transgender policy changes, staff training and gender neutral student uniforms. In addition to the policy changes, Nova will pay $120,000 in damages to the Edwards.

How much do you think the Edwards will be paying in psychotherapy for their child when HE is old enough to understand how screwed up his parents made him?

Studies have shown that transgenderism in children actually doesn’t exist. Many children may play out feelings until their old enough to make decisions as adults, but parents who encourage “transgenderism” in children are actually abusing their children.

Conservative Institute reported on gender dysphoria in children:

The clinical definition of Gender Dysphoria is: Defined by the strong, persistent feelings of identification with the opposite gender and discomfort with one’s own assigned sex that results in significant distress or impairment. For adults, this is a far different issue than it is for children. Children don’t typically have preconceived notions about gender. Yes, they may see how their parents and other adults behave and interact, but children don’t usually grasp social norms in the same ways adults do. Unfortunately, too many are now taking these regular childhood behaviors and exploiting them to advance the “trans cause.” Just because your son decides he likes to play with his sister’s dolls doesn’t mean he wants to actually be a girl, even if he occasionally dons a dress. A majority of parents understand this and it’s not a problem, but others push transgenderism on their children rather than letting childhood emotions play out until they become rational adults.

It is absolutely disturbing that parents are being allowed to abuse their children in such a manner because some on the left believe it’s completely “normal” to do so. Child psychologists know better but it appears that many in that field have also been taken over by left-wing extremism.

Nothing is OKAY about any of this. Let kids be kids and they’ll figure it out when they are old enough to make adult decisions.

Some parents are even giving their “trans” children puberty blockers, which not only cause long-term negative physical effects in the immediate future, but it is unknown what the really long-term effects are because there hasn’t been anyone who has taken them long enough to actually know.

People should not encourage this behavior. Untold harm is being inflicted upon these children.
