California lawmakers have approved a bill that would instruct courts to consider, among many other factors, whether a parent affirms a child’s gender identity when making custody and visitation decisions.
last week and is awaiting Gov. Gavin Newsom’s signature, says nothing directly about surgery. It’s specific to custody cases and instructs judges to consider a parent’s support of a child’s identity in addition to other factors already weighed. It doesn’t require a judge to side with an affirming parent, nor does it bar a non-affirming parent from accessing the child.
“Breaking: California Senate has PASSED #AB957, the most dangerous law facing California parents in decades, which will require parents to ‘affirm’ the ‘gender transition’ of any child—any age, any gender, every family, every time, social or medical transition, no limits—or else lose custody,” reads one post on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, shared across platforms. It adds: “Non-affirming parents will be deemed UNSAFE.
Courts have long been tasked with resolving custody disputes involving LGBTQ+ children, he said in an interview. And judges already consider multiple factors, such as the nature and level of contact with each parent and any history of abuse.of the legislation also noted that the “bill does not compel the court to come to a particular outcome” based on a parent’s affirmation or overrule the court’s discretion about what is in the child’s best interest overall.
Altman also said that there is “certainly nothing here to suggest that a parent could have their parental rights terminated for a good-faith disagreement about medical treatment” for a transgender child.
