If your love for your child is conditional. You are a bad parent.

Lots of parents think their children are dolls they can mold into something they think "perfect" to show off to other people, or want them to be clones of themselves they can control. Those people deserve to have them taken away or losing contact with them forever.

I'm sure most of them never hear from their child again the moment they turn 18, and they have no one to blame but themselves.

I'm just hoping to mold mine into a decent human being. Anything beyond that is up to my offspring's own best judgement.

Funny how in red states only the conservatives get parental rights not those who are pro-trans.

Parent says it’s okay to use the proper name and pronouns.

Florida School Districts: Waaaaaah, why don’t you hate children like we do! We want your express approval to bully your child!

Don't forget parents who don't want public schools to be shoving the 10 commandments and other religious indoctrination in their kids' faces every day.
