It has been a long hard battle to protect children against the aggressive trans agenda being peddled in schools, which the Biden administration supported. In 2022, the Court also blocked Biden’s transgender mandate that would have forced religious hospitals to facilitate gender transitions.
The Supreme Court decision is also a win for religious freedom. Parents have every right to raise their children in their faith tradition, without state interference.
Underage children cannot give testimony in court; yet they were expected to make decisions about a life-altering procedure, and many at a critical time, before or during their turbulent adolescence. As children were being “counseled” in schools under the guise of “care” by activists belonging to the transgender lobby, their parents were being kept in the dark. In many cases, children were being indoctrinated to believe that their parents were working against their interests.
Using children as guinea pigs to promote a radical transgender agenda is physically and psychologically damaging to them, not only immediately, but also in the long term, and no one knows yet to what degree. To illustrate the determination of this movement, in May 2022, a controversy erupted in Florida after it was discovered that State Farm auto insurance company was “encouraging its agents in Florida to donate books promoting transgenderism to 5-year-olds to their local schools or public libraries, according to an email shared by a whistleblower.”
It isn’t enough that the Supreme Court had to rescue these children. There should be consequences for all of those involved in the coercion of these children. Unfortunately, the lives of many of these children have already been destroyed.
“Supreme Court blocks California restrictions on schools notifying parents about students’ transgender status,” by Lawrence Hurley, NBC News, March 2, 2026:
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Monday barred California from enforcing state rules that restrict when schools can notify parents about students who come out as transgender and requires teachers to use children’s preferred pronouns.
The court, on a 6-3 vote on ideological lines, allowed a federal judge’s ruling in favor of parents who oppose the policy on religious grounds to go into effect. The San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals had put the judge’s decision on hold pending further litigation.
The court’s ruling focused on the parents’ claim that their rights under the free exercise clause of the Constitution’s First Amendment were violated. The court also said they have valid parental rights claims under the Constitution’s 14th Amendment.
The court did not grant a similar request made by teachers who object to the policy.
“We conclude that the parents who seek religious exemptions are likely to succeed on the merits of their Free Exercise Clause claim,” the court said in an unsigned opinion.
“The parents who assert a free exercise claim have sincere religious beliefs about sex and gender, and they feel a religious obligation to raise their children in accordance with those beliefs,” the court added.
As for the parental rights claim, the court said that longstanding precedent says parents have primary responsibility over how to raise their children.
“The right protected by these precedents includes the right not to be shut out of participation in decisions regarding their children’s mental health,” the court said…..

I can’t recall exactly where it is in the Constitution, but there is a statement about the rights of parents to *instruct* their children.
It’s one of the parts home-schoolers can rely on to protest the demands of some states that children must attend public school.
“Instructing” would include things about biology and the importance of DNA.

A creeping return to sanity. May it continue.
As a teacher, I was told my choices were either to “affirm” a confused teen’s gender confusion or abet his suicide. Scools have had cases in which they’ve done both. In a jurisdiction near me, a boy in a skirt raped a girl in the girls’ bathroom; as transferred to another school while the school board and administrations crossed all the legal t’s and dotted all the legal i’s, and the kid did the same thing again.
Every now and then–may God forgive me this sentiment–I’ve felt that the Iranian mullah-ocracy (may it soon rest in pieces) was on to something with their “flying lessons”.

Actually, more than Iran, it’s Russia that has it right w/ their militant anti-LGBTQIA laws. I’m no fan of Putin, and do wish that Russians had most of the freedoms we have (particularly Second Amendment) as well as take part in the world economy, but I do think that by sharp contrast to Western countries, they definitely have it right when it comes to the treatment of LGBTQIA2SMAP+ activists

I agree with you, Infidel. I wish no harm to law-abiding deviants, but when they seek to indoctrinate our children and increasingly play the victim role (encouraged by the Democrats) to justify murderous deeds, I must draw the line. They are mentally ill, deserving treatment but not acceptance of their deviances as normal.

Putin has allowed Islamic Chechnya to torture and murder people suspected of being homosexual. There were widespread anti-gay pogroms there in 2017 and 2019. Not sure why you want this in the civilized world.

U.S. Supreme Court blocks California’s secret gender transition school policies for kids, citing parental rights
………………………………………..
Good to hear! If someone wants to “transition” (get a sex change) as an adult, fine–at least they are not going to make an irrevocable decision while still a child–with the help of their school, at an age when most of them don’t even know what they want to be when they grow up.
