Minnesota Mom Sues Her Trans Child Over Gender Reassignment
In a video of the press conference posted to Facebook, Calgaro and attorney Erick Kaardal repeatedly refer to the teen in question as male—despite a doctor’s letter included in the complaint that states the teen “has had appropriate, permanent clinical treatment for transition to the new female gender.”
Calgaro’s lawsuit challenges a Minnesota law that allows minors to access medical care and procedures without the consent of their parents.
“Medical service providers determine whether a teenage child is emancipated,” Kaardal said at Wednesday’s press conference, adding that this allows minors to receive “elective, non-emergency medical procedure(s).”
