The Difficult Story of Sage’s Law, the headline reads, the subtitle confirms the bias of the story I am about to read, “a harrowing story of a teenager who was allegedly a victim of sex-trafficking is being used to support a law which would force schools in Virginia to inform parents if their child identifies as transgender,” the subtitle tells me. Force schools to inform parents. Read that part of the sentence a few times. Subtle, huh? You would barely notice it if you didn’t typically pay attention to word choices. The Assigned produces propaganda pieces that support the female-hating anti-family, anti-safeguarding, anti-science, body modification cult know as transgender journalism.
Notice the other word choices, allegedly a victim of sex-trafficking. There’s the anti-female sentiment creeping out. The writer allegedly promotes the right of an individual’s experience + feelings about that experience to dictate how that individual should receive care + treatment from others and chooses to deny the experience of a vulnerable teenaged girl’s sex trafficking? What happened to BelieveAllWomen? Oh right, for people like this Koolaid Warrior who wrote this article I’m talking about, the only women to believe are male women.
Can you see the only thing the writer wishes to affirm is ego?
You can search the site out for yourself. The Assigned. I won’t promote their site with a link-back. Let’s return to that phrase because it’s key to the mindset that promotes Gender Identity as a serious thing in children. 🚨Force schools to inform parents🚨
Um … to whom do the progressive muppets believe children belong, exactly? Dude, kids belong with their parents. No one else can provide + care for the kid better than the parents can and the job of the rest of us involves acknowledging that and supporting the attachment bond and relationship between parent and child. We have normalised Peer Orientation culture in childhood to such a degree that we don’t see how pedagogy sliding into Peer Status really poses a danger to children and their families and as result larger communities and hence all of humanity.
The propagandist clearly chose against listening to the testimony given by Sage’s mum about the terrible path to trafficking and abuse into which pedagogy and the state child welfare system forced Sage, in blind worship to a cult of gender affirmation which Sage felt pressured to join to gain acceptance.
She started a public high school in 2021 and all the girls there were bi trans lesbian emo and she wanted to wear boy’s clothes and be emo. At school Sage announced she was a boy named Draco and would use male pronouns and would the school please not tell her mum. Sage had a significant history of emotional and psychological distress and her mum worked closely with the school to adjust treatment and provide support for her symptoms. Covid lockdowns combined with puberty angst had made Sage vulnerable by the time she began attending high school. Sage drifted into a SOGI-dominant culture of Peer Orientation.
Gender Affirming Care imposed unilaterally by the school (ie without parental knowledge) ended up getting Sage physically and sexually assaulted, brainwashed into fearing her parents, which drove her to run away and into the hands of sex traffickers. When found the state refused to return her to her parents because they [parents] challenged her alleged gender identity. 🚨Parents are the experts on their kids without exception🚨 This resulted in Sage getting placed in the boys section of a juvenile holding facility away from her parents, where she was abused again, and from which she ran away, into the arms of sex traffickers, yes for a second time.
Fear + shame based rhetoric dominate the culture of SOGI culture and abuse kids by telling them they should fear their parents because their parents will not accept them. SOGI lies to children and teaches them their parents love them with conditions. Do I have to point out how disturbed this is, to promote such parentally alienating rhetoric on an ongoing basis under the guise of tolerance and inclusivity to kids? We have the entire education profession positioning parents as hostile visitors in the lives of their own progeny. We have pedagogy now inserting itself as more entitled to a child and more knowledgeable about a child than that child’s own parents. We have the child welfare system co-signing this and the legal system also signing off. We have child welfare deciding that parents raising a child to affirm their biological sex can in some cases be considered as equivalently abusive as parents who physically abuse their child.
Is this the ultimate end of “words are violence”? Because it’s fcuking horsesh1t.
What else do we call this now but systemic parental alienation? I see an entire system orienting children away from their parents, deliberately to alienate + isolate them. I see this as a continuation of a phenomenon Gordon Neufeld called out 20 years ago in his book Hold Onto Our Kids. Furthermore, beyond this orientation away from parents I see a collusion with child abusers and sex traffickers under the guise of Queer Theory and SOGI.
Can anyone explain how Sage was affirmed by what the school, the child welfare system and the judge did to her? They essentially handed her over to physically abusive teenage boys, then to sex traffickers, and then to more abusers. Who is gender affirmation for, anyhow? From where I sit, it is for violent boys and men, it is for rapists and sex traffickers and pedophiles. Who else was affirmed? Certainly not Sage and certainly not her family.
Who will hold space for this trauma? I will. I will create a space for this. Where is the healing for these wounds? My team + I are building a space for it now.
John Locke wrote about the parent-child connection in his Second Treatise of Civil Government, placing the child’s best interest at the heart of parent duties in human society. Parents know their child best, from the inside out. A child does not know best, a child cannot know best for he has not reached the age of reason. To require a child to lead limits that child and prevents her or him from achieving his true nature as a free neophyte human. Children need their parents to lead and guide them and humanity needs this too. The wellbeing of the species requires the parent-child attachment to remain solid and strong and enduring and the most dominant in their growing lives.
To turn him loose to an unrestrained liberty, before he has reason to guide him, is not the allowing him the privilege of his nature to be free; but to thrust him out amongst brutes, and abandon him to a state as wretched, and as much beneath that of a man, as their's. This is that which puts the authority into the parents hands to govern the minority of their children. God hath made it their business to employ this care on their offspring, and hath placed in them suitable inclinations of tenderness and concern to temper this power, to apply it, as his wisdom designed it, to the children's good, as long as they should need to be under it. (Locke, S. 63)
Information about Sage’s Law can be found [here]. It seems clear that the teaching profession has given itself a special entitlement over children, to the extent that it feel morally qualified to orient children away from their parents and toward a sexual self-image that promotes self-loathing and self-disconnect and a rupture in family connections. Why is pedagogy and the state at war with parents?
Joe Biden truly hates families and he really hates children to promote the lie that parents who choose to affirm their child’s biological sex are guilty of child abuse and should have their children apprehended. Joe Biden is exactly like the Ayatollah he designates as his political enemy. The Ayatollah also hates children and considers puberty a disease too. Biden sees sterilisation as the remedy to puberty whereas the Ayatollah sees forced hijab for girls on pain of violence and even death as the answer to puberty.
