It’s #ROGDAwarenessDay! And this is my beautiful overcomer daughter…

Three years ago: she was a quiet, quirky, artistic 12-year-old girl who had just moved to a new state & new school at the height of covid.

Unbeknownst to us, my girl was being groomed at school by a trusted teacher and radical activist in a secret gender & sexuality club.

One day she came home after “Art Club” (actually secret GSA) and announced she was a transgender boy — that this was why she was uncomfortable in her body — that she didn’t have to go through the puberty she just started — she could just be trans.

This gender dysphoria caused by “trusted adults” was RAPID ONSET … But it’s dark & dangerous stranglehold on my child was long term.

We were so caught off guard. We didn’t know how to help her. Like most parents, we considered going along with it, even though we knew it wasn’t real, because that’s what society tells you to do *or else* your child will kill themself.

We learned the hard way that Colorado laws force therapists to only affirm this confusion & make it worse. We also learned that if you don’t go along with your child’s confusion, the whole world turns against you. We were even threatened with CPS when we removed her from the harmful influence of her school…

When we saw how affirmation from therapists made her WORSE, we didn’t go along with it. We stood strong in reality for our girl. We helped her deal with the underlying issues that led to her confusion. WE GOT HER OUT OF THE SCHOOL AND OFF THR INTERNET. We carefully fought to get her out of the gender cult.

Her downward spiral into the darkness is the scariest thing we’ve ever experienced. For 9 months, I thought I was going to lose my little girl forever. There were days I thought she’d never come out of the dark cloud of confusion, days I thought we’d made progress but then she slipped back into the hole — and days I didn’t know if she’d be alive when I went into her room because the depression caused by suddenly trying to be transgender was so overwhelming.

Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria (ROGD) is very real mental health distress being *suddenly* experienced by children & young adults all over the country. And it is one million % being perpetuated by public schools, social media and social contagion.

I belong to and run support groups for THOUSANDS of parents whose children have experienced this. Our stories are always so similar.

Please understand this issue and inoculate your kids before this ideology comes at them. Consider alternatives to public school. Monitor internet time. Teach your kids that there’s no wrong way to be a boy or a girl and that you can’t change your sex. And if this happens to someone you love, be their lighthouse of truth!

I’ll never stop fighting for my own kids’ happiness — and to protect ALL children from gender ideology. I hope you’ll join me in spreading awareness to protect others! #ROGD #stopgenderideology
