Children Are Not Adults

Complimentary Story

   Yes, this title is common sense to most people, unless you identify as a “progressive” (aka leftists and/or Democrats).

   In an article by Landon Mion, “A group of 19 Democrat-led states and Washington, D.C., filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over a declaration that aims to restrict gender transition procedures for minors.

   “The lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, its secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and its inspector general comes after the declaration issued last week described procedures such as puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and gender transition surgeries as unsafe and ineffective for children experiencing gender dysphoria.

   “The declaration also warned doctors that they could be excluded from federal health programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, if they provide these treatments to minors.

   “The move seeks to build on President Donald Trump’s executive order in January calling on HHS to protect children from 'chemical and surgical mutilation.’”

   The Constitution Party of Wisconsin commends and thanks President Trump and his administration for taking action to protect this and future generations of children.

   Adult transgender activists online cry that trans-kids are being denied the right to make their own medical decisions. 

   Yes, transgender activists, you said it: trans-kids. Kids. Not adults. Big difference.

   Leftists pushing transgenderism also argue that children are ready and able to make decisions about their medical care, claiming they should be trusted with such choices and that politicians and right-wing traditional groups should butt out.

   If leftists truly believe children have such sound judgment, then would they support, say, a fourteen-year-old serving as chairman of the Democratic National Committee? Why not, leftists? You said children are emotionally stronger and smarter than we adults give them credit for.

   We do not allow children to engage in activities such as voting, driving, taking out a loan, buying a home, drinking alcohol, signing contracts, skipping school, or opening a bank account. Yet, leftists are fine with allowing children to mutilate their bodies in the name of “supporting and nurturing their feelings.”

   As a society, we have decided that children lack the emotional and mental development required for certain activities and decisions. Loving parents discipline their children. For example, God admonishes us to, “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” – Proverbs 22:6 KJV. By restricting children’s activities and making numerous decisions on their behalf, we aim to protect them from harm and legal trouble. Children are still travelling down the road of experience, that mature adults have already been on.

   The right side of the political spectrum says let children have their innocence; they will be adults for most of their lives.

   Why are leftists so desperate to sexualize children, to speed them through their childhood, to expose them to drag queen story times, infinite genders, and every adult vice as quickly as possible? To define deviancy down, to replace moral absolutes with moral relativism, of course. Leftists want to break children away from parental influence so that they can train children up in the way they want them to go. 

   Godless communist, Vladimir Lenin, shared his philosophy on who should educate and raise children and how best to do it. He understood that, for the state to gain control over the children and have them defend and obey the state in their adulthoods, he and his supporters would have to dilute the family unit and prevent parents from bonding with their children. Among other quotes about children, Lenin said, “Give me a child for the first five years of his life, and he will be mine forever.”

   Parents who know right from wrong are losing custody of their children for not accepting their children’s preferred pronouns and for resisting their confused desire to have gender transition procedures (also called “gender-affirming care,” including chemical castration and unnecessary surgeries). Last year, a Texas father lost his years-long fight in the court of a leftist Constitutionally-illiterate judge. The father was seeking to stop his amoral and twisted ex-wife from permitting their pre-teen son, who falsely believes “he” is a “she,” from undertaking gender transition procedures.

   This is why leftists want early childhood programs like pre-Kindergarten (basically, taxpayer-funded day care), and why they oppose school choice and alternatives to public schools. Leftists mostly control the state-run public schools they want your children in for eight hours a day (or longer) so your children bond with state/school officials and then grow up to be compliant global citizens who will resist any attempt to privatize or defund public schools.

   Make no mistake, leftists have declared war on the traditional family because it is a threat to their plans to fundamentally transform America. Protecting our children from life-altering procedures and medications is a war our side must win if America is to stave off God’s judgment upon us. With national repentance to Him and praying without ceasing, we will win.
