Parents had sued to halt law, saying they had the right to make decisions regarding the health of their children
A Kansas judge has temporarily blocked a law banning gender-transition treatments for minors in the state.
The state district judge Carl Folsom III granted an injunction requested by the parents of two teenagers who want to continue gender-transition treatment with medicines. Folsom’s decision halts the enforcement of a recently approved state law that banned such treatments.
In a ruling Friday, the judge sided with the teens’ parents, who sued to halt the law, saying they had the right to make decisions regarding the health of their children, according to court documents and a statement from the American Civil Liberties Union, which is representing the plaintiffs.
“Gender transition treatments” or puberty blockers? Because actively causing the transition to one gender and merely blocking the development of the other one (to stall for time until the real decision can be made as an adult) are not the same thing.
A huge part of the absurd hysteria about all this is based on misrepresenting a non-decision as a decision.
Allowing children to be treated with puberty blockers is the conservative course of action, not the radical one.
That darn constitution, keeps getting in the way of people exercising their freedom to hurt others who make them feel uncomfortable.
So… Minors are now considered adults in this case where they can make these decisions on their own? Is that what I’m understanding?
Not even close. Read the article
If that’s what you’re understanding then you need to read it again, the parents can make the legal decision to support their children.
That’s not even what the headline said.
