Common sense tells us that parents should be the determining factor until a child comes of age.

Such woke measures as letting the school decide whether a child should change his/her sex is beyond insane.

Even the so-called mainstream media occasionally tells us about transgender people who later regretted the decision.

Just imagine a young man who has his penis removed, but then decides later on that she made a mistake in becoming a female.
 
Your poll options are getting better.

But yeah obviously if there is a risk that a kid's parents would punish them for being gay/trans whatever of course it is correct to not disclose that information without the consent of the kid.
 
I have no idea what "this happing" is supposed to be because OP failed to say anything about it and simply dropped a link to a site that might as well be called Butthole Dot Com.

"Common sense" is what someone says when they want to bootstrap their opinion into greater apparent credibility without directly arguing in its favor.

So parents have no rights and the goverment should tell us how to raise and advise our kids . That is what your saying . And do youn think a 12 year old has lived enough life to really know what they want ?
 
Its not quite as dramatic as townhall would have you believe. The goal of the program is to unite parents and kids who do not feel safe wit their parents. In other words, "its for the kids."

"Minors seeking gender-affirming care in Washington will be protected from the intervention of estranged parents under a measure Gov. Jay Inslee signed into law Tuesday. Existing Washington law generally requires licensed shelters and host homes to notify parents within 72 hours when a minor comes into their care. Under the new law, facilities can instead contact the state Department of Children, Youth and Families, which could then attempt to reunify the family if feasible. Youths will also be allowed to stay at host homes — private, volunteer homes that temporarily house young people without parental permission.

The bill does not address custody and would not result in the state taking children away from their homes and parents. The Washington legislation requires the state Department of Children, Youth and Families to make a “good faith attempt” to notify parents after they are contacted by shelters or host homes and offer services designed to “resolve the conflict and accomplish a reunification of the family,” according to the bill text. Family reunification efforts would be pursued when possible, according to Washington state Sen. Marko Liias, a Democrat who was the bill’s primary sponsor.

“If a young person is totally estranged from their parents, has no meaningful relationship, we need someone to care for that child,” Inslee said at a news conference last month." (emphasis mine)

“A little girl and boy are fighting about the differences between the sexes, and which one is better. Finally, the boy drops his pants and says, “Here’s something I have that you’ll never have!” The little girl is pretty upset by this, since it is clearly true, and runs home crying. A while later, she comes running back with a smile on her face. She drops her pants and says, “My mommy says that with one of these, I can have as many of those as I want!”

Its not for the kids its for political reasons .
 
Amazing how many democrat want the goverment to raise your kids for young and take them .
 
Every one here who thinks a 12 year old has experienced enough like to make such decisions raise your hand .
 
It took about 2 years for trans activists to go from:

"Obviously we don't want to do this to minors, and it's insulting to suggest we would."

To:
"Obviously kids can't consent to this on their own, so parents can consent on their behalf."

To:
"Obviously bigoted parents shouldn't be allowed any say in whether or not their child has a sex change, so we will decide that for them."

Just an insane progression.

You want children to raised by a couple of bullies? Nice.

I want zero medical transitions for anyone under the age of 18, because as this law makes clear, trans activists are not serious about informed consent. At least before they were offering the fig leaf of parents consenting on behalf of minors who can't consent, and now they drop that the moment it becomes inconvenient.

This doesn't promote medical transition, so you can cool your support for parental child abuse.
 

I don’t know who at Townhall wrote that article but that’s not what the bill states. It doesn’t address custody. It simply inserts the state youth protective service as an intermediary in cases when a child comes in contact with their agency because they have runaway seeking certain services, including gender dysmorphia treatment, the parents have disallowed and thus have become estranged.

I didn't read the entire bill, just the article and what I skimmed in the actual bill. So my apologies if I have misunderstood its implications. But this is in the first section of the bill:

8 (d) "Protected health care services" means gender affirming
9 treatment
as defined in RCW 74.09.675 and reproductive health care
services as defined in RCW 74.09.875.

It sure sounds like it includes medical transition. But IANAL so it's possible I misunderstood it. 🤷‍♂️

If the bill allows for children to have surgery without their parents consent, please show it.

A right-wing demagogue wrote it.

Nah, I'll take you at your word that it's not in there.
