A federal judge essentially says parents have no rights over their children

Lenin is reputed to have said, “Give me four years to teach the children, and the seeds I have planted will never be uprooted.” Every parent knows this is true: Children are sponges, learning things incredibly quickly. These things then stick, for they are buried in the very deepest recesses of our brains. Today’s leftists are attempting to reinstitute this specific type of Leninism in America. They want your children, and your efforts to protest will be unavailing. A Massachusetts federal judge confirmed this last week, saying that it didn’t “shock the conscience” that a school secretly indoctrinated two children into transgenderism.

From the Daily Wire:

A federal judge has thrown out a lawsuit from Massachusetts parents who accused public school officials of hiding their children’s gender transitions from them.

U.S. District Court Judge Mark Mastroianni, an Obama appointee, criticized Ludlow Public Schools officials for allegedly hiding the pair of siblings’ gender transitions from their parents, but he said the officials’ actions do not “shock the conscience.”

“While the court is apprehensive about the alleged policy and actions of the Ludlow Public Schools with regard to parental notification, it cannot conclude the decision to withhold information” about the children from their parents meets the conscience-shocking legal standard in Massachusetts, the judge wrote in his December 14 ruling.

The case revolves around the fact that the school deliberately made the decision to keep from the parents the demands that they be treated as members of the opposite sex in junior high school:

It seems that insanity is being normalized and indoctrinated.

Black-robed, Fascist, Feral “judges” are evil and the greatest and most dangerous threat to the republic. God Bless the Republic and keep it safe from these maggots.

Just ignore my tagline, folks, as I am sure most will regardless of anything I write here. Mao was right, though. Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.

An Obamarxist appointee... consider the source, continually ask your representatives to have this one removed from the bench.

If I were a parent and they did that to my child I would do things that I might get in trouble for even talking about doing. Any parent that wouldn’t has no business being a parent.

So a school can’t give a kid aspirin without parental consent, but can help them be genitally mutilated and chemically castrated?

But nobody wants to do anything and they don’t want to get involved. “I have a job”

How are we supposed to turn it around with such low motivation?

marxists want children to be raised by the state rather than by parents

As cycles of ascendance and decadence characterize civilizations, I expected that one day the US would tragically decline, but I never expected it to occur in my lifetime or even the lifetime of my grandchildren, and I definitely never imagined that the American People would succumb to mass psychosis sending America in free-fall into the depths of such decadence and madness as to rival that of the decadence Roman Imperium—yet here we are.

Not a surprise that degenerate behavior that “shocks the conscience” has been diluted by left wing culture. Not a surprise that an Obama judge is anti parent rights. Nothing about this story is a surprise.

Defund public schools!

We have to burn the village to save it.

This judge looks like his head is always in a vise so his brain is mush

That won’t be accomplished by blogging and voting.

It’s kind of hard to think of an action worse than that that a school district could do.

Same corrupt out of control judges will order that that is unlawful discrimination as well and force the taxpayers to pay for it.

What is the big deal?

This has been the rule of law since abortion was legsli.

If you send your children to school they do not belong to you.

This is settled case law.

One way to defund public education is by parents pulling their kids out of public schools by hook or crook. Fewer kids enrolled means fewer tax dollars spent. New York City school system is facing giant budget cut due to drastic falling enrollment. Bureaucrats tried to hide the numbers but got caught by NY Post.

How can the ‘out of control’ judges be removed? Can a new Administration do it?

The left got what they have always wanted: control over the minds of children and the elimination of the family.

Of course, they still are your children but in name only. You keep the responsibility, the need to feed and clothe, and the bills. But the all-powerful State is now the parent.

Amazing how they got all that control, and most of the American public is unaware. marxists are clever.
