Children of divorce often target the ones who are actually caring for them due to their rage at the one who abandoned them, who isn’t available to be raged at, and wouldn’t take accountability if they were.

Then that just makes AC's point from post #24 even more (sadly) apropos, if said child decides to vent their frustrations against the parents who actually give a crap: "Another Freeper suggested the other day that he’d disown this kid and pretend he/she/it had never been born if he was a parent in this situation. That Freeper make have taken some grief for it, but I’d have a hard time blaming anyone for feeling that way."

It’s not. There’s something missing with the way this story is being told. Except for a few towns that have been overrun by leftists, Montana is VERY red.

Medical kidnapping,
I can’t even fathom what these parents are going thru.
It’s no different than ‘stranger danger.’

The parents had a video up on their FB page. This is what they posted in Jan 19

“ Todd and I were ordered to take our informational video down. The system does not want it made public that it’s broken and continues to violate parents’ rights. We need to stand together as families and as a community to protect our family units.”

If he calls himself MAGA, then he is forthwith excommunicated from our ranks.

It’s sad...my wife really wants to leave the Supreme Soviet of Washington where we now live. We WERE considering Montana because we thought it was a conservative state. Now, after this idiocy, Montana is OFF the list.

Then what state are you going to because Montana was good on COVID they passed laws allowing people to go mask free banned employers like Walmart from offering money to employees to get COVID shots and so on.

But moving on handwriting on the wall in Montana when they passed a TikTok ban last year following the “Chinese Spy Balloon” incident over the state.

The federal judge considering the case already saying such a ban is contrary to the First Amendment.

These Republicans beat their chests about the border even as they seek more businesses in their states which equals more jobs and migration into their states.

Might be Red state migration or Blue state migration but eventually I guess all those folks crossing the border may get some jobs out of this.

Special visas for foreign tech workers likely for sure to enter this country.

The economy comes first business with these Republicans for better or worse the border show seems a distraction.

The procedure is prohibited in Montana. How TF does the opinion of a doctor trump the explicit legislation. Let the doctors sue the state for refusing to allow it. Have state troopers drag the sons of bitches off to prison on charges of conspiracy to commit grievous assault (mutilation). See how that goes. Limp-wristed apologists always come up with an excuse to do nothing, but never explore opportunities to fight.

If Montana prohibits medical care to pretend to be the opposite sex, how in heck did CFS get the rights to take the child away, so she can be transitioned?

Who ordered the parents to take down the video? Isn’t that against the first amendment?

I grew up in Montana and have watched it play out over the last 50 years... yes, I will blame California because just as Montana’s biggest export is its children. California’s biggest export is bad ideas. Montana has a low population and that makes it an easy place for verry wealthy idiots to buy power... ask yourself where the money on advertising comes from in the state go to Kalispell and white fish look at the mansions around flat head lake how much property is vacation homes owned by Californians.

The girl already had emotional problems. This was already a dysfunctional family, what you might call low hanging fruit. What did the government destroy, really? It’s not like any of these people were quality citizens with rights that we should care about. /s

When asked to comment on the matter, Gov. Gianforte told TND that children's rights to "grow up in happy, healthy homes with loving families" are "not always realized."

Especially not when the government steps in to forcefully impose a radical leftist agenda on the child.

"Gender affirming treatment" is an excuse to not have to do any kind of diagnostics on the child. The child is suicidal? The child got the idea that if she were only male, her problems would go away? And now the state is enabling her to be mutilated instead of getting therapy to find out what her root problem is and addressing that? How is this anything other than state-sanctioned child abuse?
