Parent Police

When parents no longer have basic parenting rights:

Despite the clear biblical mandate for parents to guide and raise their children, a new cultural and legal wave is attempting to strip that authority away. There’s a growing voice that says the state—not parents—should decide what’s best for our kids. And what's worse? Parents are letting it happen. Out of convenience, fear, or the lie that someone else knows better, we are abdicating our responsibility. We are in a legal and spiritual crisis, and here are two stark examples that show just how far this has gone. First, let’s examine the contradictory nature of recent laws in Colorado. The state recently passed HB25-1312, known as the Kelly Loving Act, which specifically targets parents who do not affirm a transgender-identifying child. Under the bill, “deadnaming”—referring to a transgender person by their birth name—is labeled as “coercive control” and can be used as evidence of emotional abuse in custody decisions. In other words, calling your child by the name you gave them at birth could mean losing custody. Yet here’s the hypocrisy, while parents may be punished for deadnaming their own children, Colorado law still allows the state itself to deadname. For example, official documents like birth certificates and school records often retain the child’s legal name unless a formal legal name change occurs. This contradiction reveals the inconsistency of these policies. Why is it acceptable for state institutions to use a birth name, but not for parents? This double standard exposes an agenda.
