Texas child welfare worker quits over order to investigate parents of transgender kids

Morgan Davis, a transgender man, says he loves his job, but could no longer do it in good faith

When the governor of Texas ordered childcare workers to investigate parents of transgender children, Morgan Davis thought he could be a force for good within the system.

But after working on his first case, the child welfare investigator quickly realized he had no choice but quit.

"Our directive is to protect children, and this seems to be doing the exact opposite," Davis, who is transgender, told As It Happens guest host Dave Seglins.

"These are parents trying to give their child the best medical advice, the best medical direction possible, and we are saying: 'You are incorrect.' We are saying, 'I want to know who your therapist is. I want to know who your doctor is.'"

Davis is one of more than a dozen employees to leave the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services over Gov. Greg Abbott's directive, according to the Texas Tribune.

The directive compels child welfare workers to investigate parents whose children have reportedly received gender-affirming medical care, like puberty blockers or hormones.

So the suggestion is... The children of parents who are grooming their offspring into being transgender, aren't capable of child abuse?

It’s sick attention-seeking behavior on the part of the parents. It’s called Munhausen by Proxy.

“These are parents trying to give their child the best medical advice, the best medical direction possible,”

From a woman who pretends to be a man.

CBC is just infuriating...any questioning of trans crap upsets their “journalists”.

Don’t let the door hit you where the good Lord split you. Even though you probably like that.

>>>...all endorse gender-affirming care for gender dysphoria — the distress someone can feel when their assigned sex doesn't align with their gender identity.<<<

My sex was not assigned. It was acknowledged.

The term gender-affirming care is also deeply disturbing. Do you propose delusion-affirming care for those with paranoid schizophrena?

No. The transgender dude is saying we shouldn’t question parents who are growing their kids.

"These are parents trying to give their child the best medical advice,”

Does this apply to vaccinations and sex education?

“Morgan Davis, a transgender man...”

Who could do a better job of watching out for children’s welfare than a delusional?

Or pick any other delusion, or desire. I desire to be rich and beautiful and smart, it’s my right and you must accept and acknowledge that I am all those things, and pay to make it happen.

We are so screwed!

This guy doesn’t think things through.

What if ?

What if, upon investigating the parents, he were to discover the parents had been kept out of the loop, and had no idea , and that it could have been traced back to a “ it’s our little sectet, don’t tell your family” school teacher/admin ?

If he had remained and done his job , he may have exonerated the parents he so strongly wants to protect.

But since that train of thought found no tracks in his head I assume he’s just another knee jerk sick deluded GROOMER defender.
