An immigrant mother living in Los Angeles has revealed publicly that her 16-year-old daughter killed herself after public school employees, doctors and the courts fed the troubled teen lies about her identity.
This progressive ideology promoted by legislative leaders, that one’s gender is separate from biological sex, is driving some mentally struggling teens to despair and leading many others to destroy their reproductive systems with puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones.
California teachers, gender counselors and judges tell parents that affirming their child’s self-perception without question is the only way to truly help their gender dysphoric child. The price for doubting a child’s self-diagnosis is steep.
El Salvador immigrant Abigail Martinez found that out the hard way. She told her heartbreaking story last week of losing custody of her transitioning daughter at a Heritage Foundation event in Washington D.C. (video).
In anguish, she revealed through tears for the first time publicly how the state paid for her teen’s transitioning drugs, but instead of helping her, it only increased her daughter’s mental distress.
Abigail’s daughter began showing signs of depression in middle school and then attended meetings and “support” groups for gender-confused children in high school. Not long after attending these groups, she told her mother that she felt like she was a boy.
A psychologist and LGBT group began working with Abigail’s daughter and told Child Family Services (CFS) that she would be better off out of the house. They incentivized her to leave home by telling her that the state would pay for her gender “transition” if she did.
CFS took her from Abigail at just 16-years-old. When they appeared in court, Abigail was told she could visit her daughter one hour a week as long as she didn’t talk to her daughter about God or encourage her to come home.
The LGBT group urged Abigail’s daughter to undergo a medical gender “transition,” and despite Abigail’s objections, doctors began administering hormone therapy. Abigail begged doctors to instead conduct a psychological evaluation and treat her daughter’s mental problems.
"This is not going to make my daughter better,” she told them. “If you want to help my daughter, help her with her mental health. Help her from the inside out.” The doctors refused her request.
Tragically, Abigail’s daughter ended up taking her own life by kneeling in front of a train with her hands raised in the air.
“No mother should ever have to go through the indescribable pain that Abigail did. She was completely denied her parental rights and could have prevented her daughter’s death had doctors and the state only listened to her,” the California Family Council said in a statement.
“Abigail’s story demonstrates the direction that California is headed. There are numerous mothers and fathers dealing with similar situations who are afraid to speak about it publicly. The state is prioritizing dangerous gender ideology over parental rights and the health and well-being of children.”

Sadly many mainstream churches condone if not actively support the practice of changing the gender identity of children.
I still say RINOs are worse than Democrats.
In 20 years from now, thousands of these gender confused kids will be killing themselves when they realize how the govt abused them.
Heck, i look at old pics of me when i was a kid and i’m embarressed my parents ever dressed me like that.
And some here say that Putin is the biggest enemy of Americans...
Anyone that did this to her should be 6 feet under.
Homosexuals have the highest addiction and suicide rates of any group. Followed closely by women after abortions.
bkmk
It’s things like that will change the Quiet Man into something not so quiet. When some people have lost everything, they have nothing left that restrains them from exercising vengeance.
The Democrats have no clue what they’re doing , they’re all mental
You said what I was thinking. I’d send those sons of bitches to hell. Period.
Things either are or they are not.
Most of our societal problem comes from breaking up of the nuclear family.
“they have nothing left that restrains them from exercising vengeance…”
Vengeance is pointless and is God’s territory besides. Letting Evil know there is a price for their depredations and dissuading others from their path is perfectly fine as I see it.
So will the mother be able to successfully sue those jackals?
That’s fvcking disturbing.
“Here’s a lawsuit for you! And one for you, and you, and-... Oh yeah! You, too!”
It’s probably going to end badly for everyone involved, sadly, whether suits are filed or not.
It is nonsense like this that makes me ask, “Lord how long?”
I was listening to Christian talk radio one day, and they had a guest who was having trouble with life. He went to see a counselor that had an agenda, and that agenda was pushing transgenderism.
His diagnosis was that he was a woman trapped in a woman’s body, and he was relentless in pushing for him to have a sex change. It was, the counselor explained, necessary to find happiness.
He did so, and then was unhappier than ever because that was not the answer. He became suicidal for what he had done to his body. He then became a Christian and went through reversal surgery to try and fix what had been changed.
He’s constantly reminded of the experience when he sees himself, but his joy is now found in the LORD.
He uses that trial to teach people the evil involved in pushing these decisions on others, that it’s ugly and pervasive, and even deadly.
It is extremely suspicious that CFS told the mom she could talk to her removed daughter for 1 hour a week, as long as she didn’t talk about G-d. Isn’t that against the mom’s 1st amendment rights?
Yes, Satan is pushing and promoting this madness.
CFS told the mom she could talk with her daughter for 1 hour a week, as long as she didn’t talk about G-d. It is an international agenda of bad, sinful people behind this madness.
