Protecting our children from abuse is very much an important social and political issue. That is why I was shocked to hear Katie Couric (on her TV show) saying, “Meet Coy Mathis, a transgender girl, who at only 6, is fighting alongside her parents for the right to be fully recognized as a girl in school. Katie will explore how medical advances are being used earlier and more safely to change the biological process of puberty.” In addition, the parents are taking legal action after their local school district opted to prohibit their daughter from using the girls’ room. I am disturbed at several levels over this. How does a 6-year-old have the maturity to understand their sexuality when they haven’t reached puberty? Why would parents intentionally drug and mutilate their children? Isn’t this child abuse? Second, what about the psychological aspect of believing you are female when physically you are a male? This is a disconnection from reality. Why would parents support such delusional behavior in their children? Third is the promotion of mixed genders in accommodating these children. Extrapolating out, will there be males in the female shower rooms? Why should 99 percent of people have their privacy invaded for 1 percent of the population? I am concerned that we will accept such behavior for such radical ideas, yet child protective services will take children away for far more minor offenses. It seems we are turning a blind eye to such bizarre behaviors because it is politically incorrect to hold the LGBT [lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender] community accountable for its behavior. To top it off, there is proposed legislation in New York that would make challenging this behavior hate speech! I encourage our politicians to think carefully about the implications of such legislation. Are we to put children or political correctness first?

I was watching a video of a high school which allowed a cross dressing male to be elected prom queen, imagine being elected the king that night, "ok students now it is time for the king and queen to meet in the center of the room for their slow dance"
