Six-year-old James is caught in a gender identity nightmare. Under his mom’s care in Dallas, Texas, James obediently lives as a trans girl named “Luna.” But given the choice when he’s with dad, he’s all boy — his sex at birth.
In their divorce proceedings, the mother has charged the father with child abuse for not affirming James as transgender, has sought restraining orders against him, and is seeking to terminate his parental rights. She is also seeking to require him to pay for the child’s visits to a transgender-affirming therapist and transgender medical alterations, which may include hormonal sterilization starting at age eight.

once again mental illness rears its ugly head
Yes, the father should be forcibly treated for toxic masculinity. Medication, group discussions, surgery.
/leftthink off
yup, and this time it is the mother’s mental illness
I consider child abuse telling a child that he or she is something they are not.
First, we had public hysteria over sexual molestation at preschools … now it is sanctioned activity by our “medical professionals”.
PS … divorce proceedings? Oh hells yes! This man’s physician-wife is a certified nutter.
That is just too depressing.
Munchausen syndrome by proxy in ny cmake and C++11 opinion. Although the ninth circuit will never give a child to a father…
Simply insane…
F U B A Reason….way beyond.
The Kamps are soon to become a reality my friends….Leftist inmates running said asylums.
The family, authorities and physicians making any permanent, irreversible, life-changing decisions for a child need to make sure it’s truly in the best interest of the child. As in, first do no harm. Why can’t transition treatments wait to see if he is gay, not trans? What if it’s not gender dysphoria or sexual orientation? What if it is only another weird childhood phase that the kid is just passing through? What if the child’s mother has a toxic case of #LookatmeI’mdesperatetofeelspecial-itis. Instead of choosing the hard work of being a Tiger mom with perfect children, #lookatme decides having a trans kid is more fashionable and less work. Same self-centered motivation, different methods.
I bet you there is room full of medical professionals out there who will come forward and say “we gave her the wrong ultrasounds and told her it was a girl, cause we knew it was immediate abortion if she learned the truth.” Bet you she has aborted males in her past..
Just for info, in Nazi Germany the profession most supporting Hitler? Doctors.
The demographic most supporting? Collage women.
good grief…the kids hormones haven’t even kicked in yet….the kid don’t know what he is
Guess you didn’t read it. “But given the choice when he’s with dad, he’s all boy — his sex at birth.”
Kid knows exactly what he is. He’s likely just trying to make Mom happy…. and everyone knows what happens when you try to make a woman happy.
Nothing good.
“…hormones haven’t even kicked in yet….”
Exactly that’s why the early indoctrination is in full play. The kid will get female hormones before the male ones kick in naturally…sounds like some Frankensteinian goulishness going on. Poor kid. Next thing you know he’ll need a training bra at age nine. Won’t he be teased at school? Where’s his freedom to be left alone to grow as a child?
Dad needs a good lawyer to get the boy away from his mother. If they say a youth doesn’t have a fully mature brain until he/she is in their 20s, then this should apply to gender transformations.
Heh …
sounds like the woman is a Frankenstainess.
So the father has correctly identified his wife as a “Luna-tic”… who has issues with plain old science and engages in modern day Lysenkoism; which denies the fundamental basics of genetics ie XX and XY chromosome sets are binary in nature. Politics will never change the fundamental nature of human existence, try as they will mightily remonstrate.
The proposition that there are 7.2 billion types of ‘gender identity’ is fatuous delusion of the highest order.

One of my kids was recently doing a report on eating disorders, including anorexia which is another type of body dysphoria. Can you imagine if the same self-id, affirmation rules applied to anorexics?
Doctor sees a bag of bones walk into the office. Doctor readies advice about diet and psychological treatment. Anorexic says that she may weigh 75lbs but in her mind she’s an obese 300lb woman. She claims that insinuating she may have psychological issues will erase her very existence and cause suicidal anxiety. The doctor changes advice out of social conditioning or fear of a human rights ordeal. The doctor recommends liposuction and gastric bypass for the skeletal woman
Now imagine the patient is not an adult woman with anorexia but an 8yo child who is an autistic tomboy or feminine male.
“Doctor sees a bag of bones walk into the office.”
Doctor is funded by the state, and follows the state edicts. Otherwise known as “standard of care guidelines.” In Canada, that’s what happens. In the USA the “guidelines” are set by the patient’s insurer and the doctor’s malpractice insurer. Still set by the state, incidentally, just by a more convoluted route.
It doesn’t matter what the -actual- medical situation is, what matters is following the guidelines. So if the books says “gastric bypass for anorexia” that is what the patient will get. Because otherwise the doctor is looking at loss of license and possible jail.
This is why it is good to have a doctor somewhere in the immediate family. Only blood ties are strong enough to get the doctor to risk his/her livelihood and freedom to tell the truth when it differs from the guidelines.
This is why suing doctors for fun and profit is a very bad idea, and why voting for socialized medicine is something only liberals are stupid enough to do.
True. Fear is an excellent motivator. Fear of government policy, fear of social isolation and diminished social status, fear of activists, fear of poverty etc. It is human nature to take the path of least resistance and it is easy to rationalize being compliant, even when you know it is wrong.
But, I think there will be lawsuits associated with transitioning children. A surprising number of adults who have transitioned regret it. Prior to the affirm, affirm, affirm policy the majority of children accepted their birth sex and/or came out as gay or lesbian. The research confirming this is all there and it will be used to sue anyone and everyone associated with transitioning children. After the inevitable taxpayer-funded legal payout, there will be a political commission, an apology tour and a monument to recognize the tragedy of medical malpractice (the political and academic chattering class will be protected from blame, of course).
I’ve said before that in twenty years we’ll look back on this as the Satanic Ritual Abuse hoax of our time.
Leaving aside the obvious lunacy of the wife here, and the poor guy trying to save his son’s life, literally…
What the hell is going on with the court? Are you kidding me? Who is this judge, and what are they thinking here? How is any of this going to end well?
But the judge knows that whatever disaster occurs down the road, s/he’ll never face any consequences.
Yet another example of why we need significantly more accountability for judges and prosecutors.
Indeed. Judges should need malpractice insurance.
Think on that, ye lawyers.
It’s clear from this article that James tries to please his mom while with her, and given the choice to be as he actually is with his dad, he is what he is without having to reach. This doesn’t make James a girl, any more than it makes me an Australian Shepherd.
So, what will the court decide? It’d take a weekend with mom, and a weekend with dad for a judge that wasn’t constrained by what’s “taken hold” in our society, to figure it out that life with mom appears to be a construct, and life with dad is “normal”.
If this had occurred at any point in the past, say in 1998 when my twins were the same age as James and his twin, it’d be the result most folks ’round here would expect. The kids would only see mom while being supervised by a normal human, while dad would continue to do what we did, which most days included Fish Creek Park or Elbow Falls. And life as normal 6 years old kids.
I’m not optimistic for James. Or society.
So if the kid stays with mom, what are the chances of eventual suicide? Something like 40%? Where there is a gender dispute between parents, it makes too much sense to go with mother nature’s choice. 18 years comes too soon and the little bugger can have a rat chew off his nuts if he wants.
Trans inmates of the type I see in the correctional institution where I work experience a suicide ideation rate of 77%. I cannot see it being much different within mainstream society. Now granted, there is also very often a whole host of other mental illnesses rolled up in there, however, it just goes to show where their head is at when an person believes they can just ignore basic biology and make two-plus-two equal five or believing they can jam a square peg in a round hole (as it were LOL)
Ex-wife wants father completely out of the picture except for footing the bill to have his child medically, emotionally, and mentally abused.
As many above have already talked about, what a sick society we are becoming.
see how many players there are?
each with their own objectives and tactics.
even the kid fer fcuk sake.
also, regarding the therapist, anybody remember that episode of ‘3s company’?
business card says ‘therapist’. joyce dewitt character reads it as ‘the RAPIST’.
life imitating art eh?
I blame the judgey-judges whoever the fcuk they are.
This is why you can’t compromise with leftists folks. This is what that looks like.
We’ve compromised past the point of no return, which is too depressing to think about. I think that’s why I listen to Dr. Jordan Peterson because he seems to have a bit of hope and I gain some when I see his young audiences not only support his views but many of them become converted from leftism to rational thought.
Peterson’s a schizophrenic charlatan.
Interesting long-distance diagnosis.
Peterson probably would speak equally highly of you, were he to have the grave misfortune to meet you .
“Interesting long-distance diagnosis.”
Heh. And squeeze the word anonymous, in there, will ya?
Why did the Husband and Wife divorce?– Presumably both Birth Parents or if the “Y” chromzone does not confirm the expected The recognized male Parent still must have an expectation in the increasingly North American Culture to assert gender. This is reasonably and definitely a matter for the ACLU to take to the Supreme Court Of The United States._____ Cough! Cough!
Guess I misspoke. Sorry!
Either they divorced because this issue was already in dispute, or she is sick enough to destroy her own child in an act of revenge against her ex for something else.
Maybe she’s just impossible to live with, and I have a sneaking hunch that she prefers women…
To say that this is appalling is an understatement. She is going to make her son’s life an unending hell. She should lose all parental rights, be charged with child abuse and permitted to see her son only with supervision.
The involuntary sterilization of “mentally deficients” by the eugenics movement was mild by comparison, at least those victims could lead normal lives.
It’s a nasty divorce and the wife is using the poor kid as a weapon against the soon to be ex-husband. Likely she always wanted a daughter anyway. My sympathies lie with the husband and the kid; the wife should be in an asylum, if we still had them.
The wife should be in jail.
So should the presiding judge.
She wanted a cute doll to play with. No woman actually enjoys taking care of snotnosed brats. The wives of wealthy globalists delegate all the child care to nannies.
Children are only useful to women as ways of blackmailing their father into paying for mommy’s toys.
They should starve the boy for a day then offer him either a nice fresh pie or a dirty old wiener to eat. If the boy chooses the former then the mother has to jump in front of a bus. If he chooses the latter, the dad gets to shoot the mother.
He’s just a child. Grow up, girl ffs. Not funny this time.
She probably wanted a girl.
Wait until you guys start reading about what is happening in this regard within in our correctional institutions.
I’m a correctional officer working in a provincial facility in Canada. When it comes to inmate placement when they are first admitted, we are now required to house them by what gender they present themselves as during the admission process. So if we’re talking about a male that “identifies” as “female”, they do get housed with female inmates if they claim to be “in transition”, which is so open to interpretation it is ridiculous.
A peer of mine that works as an admitting and discharge officer at a facility where this type of admission had taken place had the biggest “I told you so” moment of his career when two female inmates housed in a unit with a “transwoman” became pregnant. He, however, was not permitted the glory of that “I told you so” moment, as workplace discrimination policies prevent that upon pain of discipline. Is this reported in the news? Of course not. But it begs the question – how could that “transwoman” not be a man if he/she is able to father children? Only the leftards in government that create such insane policies can possibly ignore something as immutable as biology. It is madness….utter, and total madness.
This willfull blindness to the obvious has another, more insidious effect. If our moral and intellectual superiors are this brainwashed, incompetent and/or stupid about something as simple as sex differences then why should we trust them on any issue, especially more complicated ones?
The chattering class likes to cut off debate by insisting that your average Joe wouldn’t question the advice of a doctor or try to pilot a plane…so us Joes and Janes shouldn’t question other experts either. But if your doctor recommends slaughtering a chicken under the new moon to cure disease and your pilot is a raving lunatic screaming “we’re all gonna die” for no apparent reason then you’d be crazy to unquestioningly accept their expertise. Likewise, if politicians can’t figure out sex differences and scientists are screaming “the end is nigh” then sane people should not blindly accept their “expertise” in any matters.
Yet for the Joes and Janes, what is to be done? We can’t trust them, but as Morpheous in the Matrix said – “they are the gatekeepers. They are guarding all the doors, they are holding all the keys”. So what are we to do? How far down the proverbial rabbit hole does it go before collectively, people say, “enough!”? We’ve been boiling the frog for so long that I would have thought even this cannot be borne.
The rise of populism is a sure sign that things have gone badly awry. Unfortunately, our ruling and chattering class are misunderstanding this very clear message too.
Pathetic. Madness from a sick society.
Any sickness of the mind likely has some connection to an unfulfilled desire run amok. The therapist job is to identify which desire has taken control and of whom.
In this case it sounds like the mom.
Lock the stupid B****H up and throw away the key. And, include anyone who agrees with her.
The mother obviously only wants a trophy transgender child so she can say “Look what I have.”
Dad needs to take a long drive in the Texas desert one night with this stupid deranged bitch.
Someone should dangle so this poor boy can continue to.
This insanity is the result of deliberately trying to overthrow traditional values and institutions. The communists have always intended to destroy all institutions, natural and man-made, religion, history, familly, morality, so that the state would be the master of all and the populace merely serfs.
It’s interesting to note that the boy knew on which side his bread was buttered.
Best arguement I have ever heard for sharia law.
Is the “culture” or civilization degenerating or what?
As the prevailing winds blow these days, it is not at all clear that the stupid mother gets her way.
No doubt they will make a movie about it and the heroic mother.
Wow, sounds like one of those complex cases that could only be resolved by timely intervention by our bastions of knowledge, common sense, and fundamental decency….the SCC, or the Ontario HRC, for example.
Poor little bastard would lose a nut, half his pecker, and end up with a grafted beaver, and one silicone implant.
May I suggest that once a boy is able to eat solid food, to walk, to dress himself and to go to the potty unassisted, his mother has done her job and she ought to have no further contact with him. The rest of his upbringing should be his father’s responsibility.
God help me, even Pierre Trudeau knew better than to leave his sons in the care of their lunatic mother.
“God help me, even Pierre Trudeau knew better than to leave his sons in the care of their lunatic mother.”
I don’t know about that. They might have been better off with Shaggy Maggie….juthtin would still be shallow and stupid, but he might not be as arrogant.
“God help me, even Pierre Trudeau knew better than to leave his sons in the care of their lunatic mother.”
That there is a keeper!
From the Save James website:
“A huge thank you to the many people who have been viewing the site and the overwhelming outpouring of support for James.
“…we do not encourage or support any negative action against his mother. (such as unkind or hateful comments on her website or yelp)
“While we do not agree with her actions at this time, we do not wish any ill will toward her.
“As Christians, it is our desire for her heart to change and for her to have a great relationship with her children. Our Christian response should never be to intentionally cause damage.
“…remember that we are known by our love.
“If you are moved by concern to support or take action in some way, I ask that you write our lawmakers and representatives about the great need for the protection of our children.
“We love this family and desire in all things to be loving and above reproach.”
Well. There’s their problem.
They went like lambs to the slaughter to globalist-controlled courts and legislatures for justice.
They should have gone to their friends and neighbours, who by now would have settled the matter for good.
