   Florida mom filing suit after child tran

   A Florida mother is filing suit and issuing a stark warning to parents   
   nationwide after her transgender child transitioned at school without   
   her consent.   
      
   Florida mom and mental health professional January Littlejohn and her   
   attorney Vernadette Broyles discussed the lawsuit and why she is   
   "outraged" over the incident.   
      
   "This is happening all over the nation," Littlejohn warned on "Fox &   
   Friends First" on Monday. "This same protocol is in place in many, many   
   schools across districts everywhere, and even the guides being used to   
   dictate these transgender support plans that cut parents out even have   
   the same language."   
      
   "So this is a very systematic way that parents are being excluded from   
   important decisions occurring with their children, and further, social   
   transition is a medical intervention that schools are grossly   
   unqualified to be taking these steps without parental involvement," she   
   continued.   
      
   According to Littlejohn, her daughter, who was 13 years old at the   
   time, expressed confusion over gender during the pandemic after a group   
   of friends transitioned to the opposite sex.   
      
   She eventually found out the school was working on a "transgender   
   support plan" with her child, but the school initially declined to   
   allow her involvement given she was "protected by a nondiscrimination   
   law."   
      
   "Eventually we did see the transgender support plan, which was a   
   six-page document that they completed with my daughter, that was 13 at   
   the time behind closed doors, where they asked her questions that would   
   have absolutely impacted her safety, such as which restroom she   
   preferred to use and which sex she preferred to room with on overnight   
   field trips," Littlejohn said.   
      
      
   This comes after Republican lawmakers sent a letter to Education   
   Secretary Miguel Cardona after a 12-year-old Florida girl reportedly   
   attempted to commit suicide after undergoing secret gender transition   
   talks with her school.   
      
   "There are lawsuits in Wisconsin, Maryland, Oregon, California,"   
   Broyles said. "This is a national agenda, and parents need to recognize   
   they have the right to direct the upbringing, education, care, medical   
   decisions, mental health decisions of their child."

   By questioning every child in a school about what gender they think   
   they are, you would think that 50% of the children were transgender.   
      
   The truth is maybe one or two children might wish they were the   
   opposite sex, but that doesn't mean they are transgender.   
      
   I'm sure if a doctor explained to a 13 year old boy exactly what would   
   have to be done to turn him into a girl, he would change his mind   
   immediately.
