During a recent CNN interview, Christie was asked about Republican governors who have taken a different stance on this issue.<\/p>\n<p>Christie emphasized the importance of parental involvement, stating, &#8220;What I believe we should be focused on, most importantly, in these issues is making sure there is parental involvement at every step along the way. I don&#8217;t think that the government should ever be stepping into the place of the parents in helping to move their children through a process where those children are confused or concerned about their gender.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He continued, &#8220;Parents are the people who are best positioned to make these judgments, and so what I&#8217;d like to make sure each state does is require that parents be involved in these decisions.&#8221; Christie emphasized that individuals under the age of 18 should have parental support and guidance as they <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/atheist-group-targets-ohio-school-board-for-ending-prayer-with-our-savior-jesus-christ\/\" title=\"Atheist group targets Ohio school board for ending prayer with \u2018our savior Jesus Christ\u2019\">make important decisions<\/a> about their lives.<\/p>\n<p>The video of Christie&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/jan-6-committee-seeks-to-expand-govt-authority-to-spy-on-citizens\/\" title=\"Jan. 6 committee seeks to expand govt. authority to spy on citizens\">remarks sparked controversy<\/a> on social media, with critics expressing their disapproval.
