Supreme Court temporarily halts California gender policy as parental rights reaffirmed

Ainsley Earhardt discusses the Supreme Court's decision to halt California's policy regarding parent notification on student gender identity changes with Thomas More Society executive vice president Peter Breen.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

The Supreme Court ruled earlier this week in a 6-3 decision that California teachers cannot hide from parents the fact that their child is identifying as trans in school while the broader case works its way through the courts, but the real question is, what on Earth were the three dissenting liberals thinking?

In fairness, our justices of the left, Elena Kagan, Sonya Sotomayor and Katanji Brown-Jackson, did not render a final judgment in the case. But the idea that parents should be kept in the dark while it plays out is simply repulsive.

The majority, in as obvious a statement as one can make, decided that parents have the "primary authority with respect to 'the upbringing and education of children,'" including "the right not to be shut out of participation in decisions regarding their children’s mental health."

As every parent knows, their permission is needed at school for everything from field trips to special holiday meals, but apparently the dissenting trio believes there is an argument to be made for not telling parents their child has changed their gender. Abject madness.

Worse, when you think it through, is that instead of talking about this legitimate mental health challenge with their folks, children are supposed to trust other adults more to make decisions about their gender and sexuality, an incredibly dangerous idea.

Most parents, if they discovered another adult was secretly encouraging their son to wear dresses, would immediately call the police, as they should.

What led the misguided liberals on the court here is the most fundamental misunderstanding, or flat-out lie, if you prefer, underlying the case, that people can be born in the wrong body or change genders.

Once the justices crack open this pandora's box, it opens the door to arguments that parents are somehow violating their own children’s rights by refusing to accept their claim to be trans. All across the country, parents have lost access to their children for refusing to feed the trans delusion.

Take the case of Jeanette Cooper of Chicago, who lost custody of her 12-year-old daughter after she went to her father's house and claimed she was a boy. Even after affirming her child’s pronouns, Cooper still lost custody under the same laws that protect kids from abuse.

"A difference in belief is not abuse," Cooper told Fox News in 2023. "I think that children who are actually being abused in very material ways should be insulted by this."

CALIFORNIA SCHOOL DISTRICT LETS STUDENTS CHANGE NAMES AND GENDER IDENTITY IN SECRET FROM PARENTS

Apparently, the Supreme Court’s liberals and progressives in general believe that parents who do not just simply and blindly accept that their child has changed genders should have that kept from them, and perhaps even lose them if they refuse to give in.

Is it possible that there are a handful of parents out there who might actually abuse their kids for being trans? It is, but first of all, abuse is already illegal, and more importantly, we cannot disregard the basic rights of all parents because of a few alleged bad apples.

All of this is rooted in the creepy progressive idea that your kids belong to society, not to you, that it is the state, not the parents who bear ultimate responsibility for the child’s development and well-being.

If there is abuse or neglect, the state can and must step in, but this must be the extreme exception, never the rule, and it should not apply at all in terms of gender identity.

Along with the recent decision by Langone Medical Center and other major hospitals to cease the medical transition of children, this 6-3 decision by the court, and the likely final decision along those lines, are powerful steps back towards sanity.

The conservatives on the court are to be commended for this common-sense decision, but until all of our institutions reject the idea that gender is fluid or nonbinary, we will continue to have children confused about their gender.

It is not enough to compel teachers to disclose to parents if a child thinks they are trans, they must also be compelled not to preach this fairy tale of gender identity in our schools at all. 

With this Supreme Court decision, that goal is firmly within reach.

  •   “爷爷、奶奶,你们辛苦了,来喝一杯绿豆汤解解暑吧!”7月23日上午11点,烈日当头,滁城广惠桥共乐亭下,琅琊区龙池社区“小龙人”志愿者服务队队员用稚嫩的小手,将一杯杯绿豆汤送到正在这里清扫路面的环卫工手中。

      接过绿豆汤,环卫工叶大爷一口气喝个精光,“真甜!这绿豆汤既解渴又暖心,感觉扫地更有劲了!”

      见有免费绿豆汤,一些路过的外卖小哥、快递员等户外工作者也纷纷驻足,孩子们热情相迎,毫不吝啬地端上绿豆汤,为他们送去一份清凉。不一会儿工夫,满满一锅绿豆汤便见了底。

      “太好了,那么多人喝到了我们的绿豆汤。”尽管热得满头大汗,但小志愿者鲍子航心里却是甜滋滋的。

      “参加活动的小志愿者有的才7岁,但他们非常了不起。今天的绿豆汤,从去小区邻居家借绿豆,到在社区煮绿豆,再到现在的送绿豆汤,整个过程,基本上都由他们自己完成。”一旁的龙池社区党委副书记秦晓云边说边为小志愿者点赞。秦晓云告诉记者,暑期以来,这样的爱心活动天天都在上演。

      “参加这样的活动非常有意义,孩子不仅得到了实践锻炼,而且还培养了他们的爱心意识和责任意识,这对他们将来的成长大有裨益。”其中一位志愿者的妈妈蔡冉表示,今后她还会带孩子参加这样的活动。

      记者了解到,几年前,龙池社区组建“小龙人”志愿者服务队,每年夏天都招募小小志愿者,开展“煮绿豆汤送清凉”活动。目前,该活动已连续举办6年,累计为环卫工人、外卖小哥等户外工作者提供服务千余人次,成为滁城夏日街头的一道亮丽风景。

      龙池社区党委书记孙涛告诉记者,今后将把这项志愿活动常态化办下去,扩大覆盖面,吸引更多青少年参与,让这份清凉与爱心持续传递。(见习记者 邢颖 记者 王太新)

  •   记者17日从国新办举行的“高质量完成‘十四五’规划”系列主题新闻发布会上获悉,“十四五”期间,国务院国资委组织深入实施中央企业“AI+”专项行动效果初显,在能源、制造、通信等16个重点行业打造了800多个应用场景,积极推动国产大模型在企业的应用和落地。

      “‘人工智能+’不是简单的技术叠加,而是一场全方位的范式变革。”国务院国资委副主任李镇在发布会上表示,当前人工智能技术加速迭代演进,深刻改变了人类的生产和生活方式,重塑了全球产业格局。作为长期扎根传统产业领域的中央企业,更要积极拥抱AI、科学运用AI,善于把“激动人心的概念”转化为“产业升级的大脑”,以AI新技术赋能新质生产力发展。

      据李镇介绍,“十四五”期间,中央企业“AI+”专项行动实施已取得一定成效:成立了交通物流、绿色低碳、智慧能源3个行业数据产业共同体,建设行业数据集超过1000个;通信运营商加快向AI基础底座供应商转变,累计投资超百亿元,建成4个“万卡集群”,智算规模比“AI+”行动实施前增长超过2倍;突出产业特色,加快建设自主可控、安全可靠的基础大模型,目前“九天”“星辰”“元景”等大模型,已在能源电力、工业制造等领域加快应用;发起设立了“焕新社区”,汇聚了244个垂类行业模型、近160个高质量数据集,有效助力人工智能技术普惠应用。

      下一步,国资央企将积极落实国务院近期发布的《关于深入实施“人工智能+”行动的意见》,结合企业自身优势和发展实际,持续深化“AI+”专项行动,推动中央企业在人工智能领域实现更好发展、发挥更大作用。(记者 高亢 王希)
