The wolves are the predators online\u2064 encouraging 13-year-old kids like Kobe to \u2064\u201cplay the suicide card.\u201d The wolves are the profiteers of the medical industry mutilating children to the tune of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/transgender-surgery-poised-to-become-a-5-billion-industry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">$5 billion<\/a>. The wolves encourage \u200dchildren of parents who do not \u201caffirm\u201d their identities to <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/10\/27\/democrats-and-activists-offer-gender-confused-minors-cash-and-uber-rides-to-away-from-home\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">run away<\/a> and even offer them\u200b incentives to do so. \u2062The\u200b wolves are the \u2064ones who are sexually gratified \u2063by the idea of \u200dchildren in pubescent limbo, encouraging confused minors to take\u200c hormone\u200c blockers.<\/p>\n<p>Our\u2062 challenge in communities is to get school district \u200bleaders like Reid to\u2062 stop \u2064putting\u200b in predatory policies that help the wolves and, rather, get them instead to protect youth\u2064 like \u2062Kobe \u200bfrom \u200bthe wolves.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-4e64963bac649b342e27344748dc7540 fdrlst__b89e9-after-post-content\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-4e64963bac649b342e27344748dc7540\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When discussing gender identity confusion, public school counselors often emphasize that supporting a transgender child is crucial for their well-being.
