The bill, SB 5599, was signed into law by Democrat Governor Jay Inslee on Tuesday, granting shelters the right to not notify parents of minors when the children flee homes where gender transitioning is not accepted.<\/p>\n<p>Supporters of the bill argue that it will protect vulnerable youth, especially those who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mental-health-bill-is-state-sanctioned-kidnapping-parental-rights-advocates-say\/\" title=\"Mental Health Bill Is \u2018State-Sanctioned Kidnapping,\u2019 Parental Rights Advocates Say\">seek \u201cgender-affirming care<\/a>.\u201d However, critics argue that the bill removes parents from health and mental health care decisions of their children, allowing a disagreement between a child and the parents over the issue of medical transition to be construed as \u201cabuse and neglect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The bill has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/washingtons-new-law-blocks-parents-from-children-who-wish-to-transition\/\" title=\"New Washington Law Prevents Parents from Interfering with Children's Transition.\">attracted intense criticism online<\/a>, with many LGBT+ folks and social welfare organizations speaking out against it. Gays Against Groomers slammed the passage of the bill, stating that \u201cchildren need to be protected from the predatory medical industrial complex, not their parents.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>What Do Critics Say?<\/h3>\n<p>In an interview with The Epoch Times, Republican state Rep. Chris Corry pointed out that SB 5599 allows a disagreement between a child and the parents over the issue of medical transition to be construed as \u201cabuse and neglect\u201d just because the parents hadn\u2019t \u201cproperly affirmed what the child wants.\u201d Corry noted that there were already state laws available that protect children from abuse and neglect, requiring \u201csolid and compelling reasons\u201d why kids need to be removed from their homes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s frustrating is even in those cases, the parents still have a right to know where their kids are after they\u2019ve been removed,\u201d Corry said. \u201cIn this case, parents would have no idea.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Final Thoughts<\/h3>\n<p>While the bill has been passed, it remains a controversial issue with strong opinions on both sides. As the debate continues, it is important to consider the rights of both children and parents in making decisions about their health and well-being.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The state of Washington has approved a new law that enables shelters to hide children from their parents in case the children want to undergo gender transitioning.
