Dad Of Trans Teen Begs For End Of State-Sponsored Child Abuse
Rob felt that at the age of 14 when the courts judged his daughter competent to take testosterone without parental consent she simply did not have the foresight necessary to understand such consequences. Over the course of the past year, Rob has heard his daughter s voice deepen and crack and watched her begin to grow facial hair.
Sometimes I just want to scream so that other parents and people will& jump in, understand what s going on, Rob said. There s a child and not only mine, but in my case, my child out there having her life ruined, and yet, Rob felt, people don t [even] know.
Rob s efforts to raise awareness of his daughter s plight have come at a high cost. The last time he granted an interview to The Federalist, he was convicted of family violence by the BC Supreme Court for his expressions of rejection of [his daughter s] gender identity. He was also placed under threat of immediate arrest if he was caught referring to his daughter as a girl again.
This could never happen in the good ol’ USA. Just kidding!
