Her parents, Joseph and Arlene Kutzko, initially refused to recognize her as male, leading to claims that the school and child protective services secretly transitioned her and removed her from their custody in December 2024, when she was 15. Despite claims of physical abuse against her father being unfounded, she was placed in a boys\u2019 dormitory, denied religious activities, and administered medications like birth control and psychiatric drugs. Now age 17, Sophie is facing hearings to be given <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/detransitioner-gender-affirming-care-was-the-least-caring-thing-ever-done-to-me\/\" title=\"Affirming Reality Is The Only Way To Escape Transgender Abuse\">high-dose testosterone<\/a>, wiht her family advocating for her return home and a complete psychological assessment. They argue the state has overstepped parental rights, framing it as a broader issue of government overreach and the politicization of gender identity, which they see as a perilous shift away from family authority and customary values. The case reflects concerns among some groups that social transition policies are being carried out covertly by educational and social services, often against parents\u2019 wishes, and warns that such practices may become widespread if political control remains concentrated.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Joseph and Arlene Kutzko would not tell their daughter she was a boy.<\/p>\n<p>Massachusetts took her anyway.<\/p>\n<p>The Roman Catholic couple said that staff at Algonquin Regional High School in Southborough began socially transitioning Sophie without telling them, Fox News Radio\u2019s Lighthouse Faith <a href=\"https:\/\/radio.foxnews.com\/2026\/09\/13\/catholic-massachusetts-family-battling-state-authorities-to-get-daughter-back-after-school-began-to-secretly-transition-her-without-their-knowledge-and-removed-her-from-home\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In December 2024, when she was 15, the Department of Children and Families removed her from the house.
