California attorney general files LAWSUIT to keep parents in the dark over gender identity policy

The Chino Valley Unified School District in California has adopted a policy that would require schools to inform parents about student gender transitions, and some people — including California’s attorney general — aren’t happy.

The attorney general, Rob Bonta, filed a lawsuit against the school district over the policy, claiming that “the forced outing policy wrongfully endangers the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of non-conforming students who lack an accepting environment in the classroom and at home.”

Sara Gonzales of "The News & Why It Matters" is enraged.

“You cannot inform parents about their own freaking children. We must hide it from the parents, and then when the child becomes confused and withdrawn and isolated and depressed and ends up killing themselves, I don’t know, I guess it’ll be the parents' fault even though they didn’t know,” she rants.

“This is disgusting stuff,” she adds.

Senator Scott Weiner weighed in on X, tweeting, “Forcing a teacher to out a trans kid to their parents — even if the kid isn’t ready & even if it puts them at risk of harm — is dangerous & frankly despicable.”

“Each of us decides when we come out. It’s no one else’s damn business,” he continued.

“I can’t think of a better name than Scott Weiner for this little weiner,” Gonzales comments.

Jason Buttrill, head writer and researcher for Glenn Beck, has some thoughts as well.

“I don’t think parents even know how deep this goes. This is so infested in public schools,” Buttrill says, explaining that school psychologists have their own standards and can counsel kids on "gender-affirming care" and never tell the parents about it.

“The parents don’t get to know, but we as the teachers who have no familial connection to your child have the right to guide them into it, indoctrinate them into it, prime their brains for it, but you don’t have the right to know about it,” Gonzales says, adding, “Get your kids the hell out of public schools.”
