So now the US has become a police state as well.

'State snatched away widow's teen daughter to transition her'
'It was more about, what can we do to this family to destroy them?'

'FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—A mother in California lost her daughter to
the foster care system in 2016 after she wouldn't support the
then-14-year-old girl identifying as a boy.

"I lost my husband, but this was worse than losing my husband, because I
had my rights taken away," the mother told The Daily Signal.

Years later, the daughter regrets attempting to transition, and her
mother warns other parents against allowing minors to make irreversible
changes to their bodies.

The mother of two, whose husband had died years earlier, was accused of
emotional abuse for forbidding her teenage daughter from binding her
chest and wearing male clothes. Her daughter was taken from the family
and placed in a foster home for a few months.

"It was incredibly hard," said the mom, who asked to remain anonymous to
protect the privacy of her daughter. "I wouldn't wish that on my worst
enemy."

The Daily Signal reviewed Los Angeles County Department of Children and
Family Services documentation in which a social worker, referring to the
then-14-year-old with he/him pronouns and a male name, details the
daughter's time in foster care, her accusations of emotional abuse
against her mother, and her later renunciation of the claims.

The mother had to hire lawyers to regain custody of her daughter and
clear her name of the abuse charges. The charges would have disqualified
her from continuing to pursue a career as a Christian counselor.

After a few months in a packed foster home in a dangerous neighborhood,
the daughter asked to come home. She admitted to lying about the abuse,
saying that she got the idea to accuse her mother of abuse from people
online who said that was the ticket to getting away from her family.

"The process of getting her back, it was pretty difficult," the mother
said.

"She even admitted it to me later that she was influenced by people
online who said you need to get out of your house if she's not going to
let you do what you want to do," she continued.

The mother hired two attorneys to get her teenager back and clear her
name. She said she felt like Child Protective Services was looking for
reasons to tear her family apart.

"It was not about reunification," she said. "It was more about, what can
we do to this family to destroy them?"

After the daughter returned home, she called social workers on her
mother a few more times, accusing her mom of abuse for refusing to buy
her male clothing. The mother received a California Child Abuse Central
Index (CACI) violation for declining to take her daughter to a program
at the Los Angeles LGBT Center for LGBTQ+ youths ages 2-25 called Rise.

"I wasn't feeling like that was really helping her, going to that
center, because even when she was going to the center, I found that she
was connecting with other kids, and her demeanor was even worse, even
more rebellious, even more defiant," the mother said. "I made the call.
I'm not going to drive you there. And that's when the social worker
wanted to interview me, and because I didn't do that, I immediately got
a second hit for emotional abuse."

"I just found it really crazy that they could deem that as emotionally
abusive, just trying to discipline your child," she continued.

At age 17, the daughter admitted to getting a prescription for
testosterone from a therapist behind her mom's back. She took it for a
few days, but she told her mom she felt God was telling her to stop.

The mom said she couldn't have gotten through the difficult time without
her faith community. She left California a few years ago, partially
because of how her parental rights were disrespected there.

"Once this was all resolved, I thought I had to get out of California,
as much as it was home to me, and still is, to some point," she said. "I
didn't feel safe there raising my daughter anymore."

This is not the first time the Los Angeles County Department of Children
and Family Services has taken a daughter away from her mother over
transgender ideology. DCFS placed 16-year-old Yaeli Martinez in foster
care after her devout Christian mother, Abby, expressed concerns over
her daughter "transitioning" to a boy.

The government accused Abby Martinez of abuse and permitted her only
brief meetings with her daughter weekly. Yaeli committed suicide three
years later.

"My daughter was murdered by gender ideology," Martinez said in a
testimony before the California Senate Judiciary Committee in 2023.

The anonymous mother told The Daily Signal that in states like
California and Minnesota, to which the family has since moved, "a parent
does not have the rights to parent their kid or guide them from things
that could be potentially harming."

"It's very concerning because parents' role is to guide their children
the best they can in a healthy manner," she said, "and giving a
14-year-old those rights, it doesn't make sense to me."

The mother referred to a May 2023 bill signed by Minnesota Gov. Tim
Walz—currently running as the Democratic vice presidential nominee—that
allows kids to travel to Minnesota and receive medical interventions
without parental knowledge or consent and to a 2013 California law
prohibiting discrimination on the basis of "gender identity" in schools.

In mid-July, California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, signed Assembly
Bill 1955, which barred school districts from requiring that parents be
informed of their child's gender identity.

The mother told The Daily Signal she was very concerned about the health
risks of chest binding. She told her daughter it could permanently
damage her body. Chest binding can cause tissue and rib damage, hormone
imbalances, and breathing issues.

According to the mother, social media played a huge role in her
daughter's decision to identify as a boy.

"I think if there wasn't social media, we wouldn't be having this
conversation," she said. "There's just so many things that they can get
into through social media and the internet."

Although the road has not been easy, the mom and daughter—now 22 years
old—have a good relationship now.

"She regrets it, what she put me through," the mother said. "She's sorry
that she did."

Now, the mother urges other parents in similar situations to limit their
children's phone usage, find support systems, and never give up on their
families.

"Just keep fighting," she said. "That's what I did. I just kept
fighting.'
