The left’s gender wars are yet another reason on a long list of why voters demolished the Democrats in the November 5 elections, which saw the GOP take the House, the Senate, and the Oval Office.
Nowhere has the insanity been made more clear than in the case of Texas dad Jeff Younger, who has fought endlessly in court to stop his wife from obtaining “gender-affirming care” for their now 12-year-old son. In the latest development, a California judge ruled Tuesday that basically Younger has no say in the matter:
A Texas father who tried for years to stop his ex-wife from allowing his pre-teen child, who now identifies as 'Luna,' to be chemically castrated has been dealt a blow in California court.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mark Juhas ruled that Jeff Younger's ex-wife Anne Georgulas would be granted full custody of his 12-year-old son James and would be able to allow him to transition.
It comes as a blow to Younger, 59, who announced on X that he 'lost all parental rights' over his twins and wished his children goodbye.
The case began in Texas but moved to California when the mother moved to the Golden State, presumably because of the extreme political environment there.
Heartbreaking:
I lost all parental rights to my sons. Goodbye, boys. Perhaps, we will meet when you are adults.

Fathers have no rights, he wrote:

California Judge Juhas gave my ex-wife authority to [chemically] castrate my son, James.
All contact with my boys must be supervised. I won't do that. I send letters and gifts to my sons. My ex is not required to give them to the boys. I cannot post pictures of my sons.
Let my story be a cautionary one for young men. Fathers have no rights to their children. Do not enter the family law system.
The 59-year-old told the Washington Examiner after the ruling that nobody in government seems to be looking after the welfare of his son:
“I don’t understand why the government entities, the courts, the legislatures, the Supreme Court of Texas, all the places where I’ve been, none of them have protected my son. I just don’t understand what is wrong with America, that nobody will stand up and protect this boy who’s in a position of power to do it,” Younger added.
As a father myself, I can’t fathom the emotions that this dad is going through. The thought that my son could basically be taken from me and that he and his mother would be allowed to make such drastic, potentially unalterable changes when he’s at such a young age is beyond my ability to compute.

Younger said he had no intention of doing “supervised visits” because he considers them counterproductive in a situation like this:
A number of well-meaning people (and some ill-meaning people too) have urged me to attend supervised visits.

That is a bad idea.
It's bad for kids. Supervised visitation reinforces in a child's mind that the father is dangerous, that something is wrong with him.
It's also bad…
It's also bad for the father. The supervisor can record anything he wants. Whatever he writes down, the court will take as fact. Supervision provides infinitely malleable material for the courts to make damaging findings.
It's also very expensive. I have to do visits in Los Angeles County, California. The flights and supervision run to over $2,000 per visit.
No parent should do supervised visitation. It's bad for the children, bad for the father, and allows courts invent false findings to further endanger the father.
When people tell me that biological men playing in women’s sports isn’t really happening or that only a very small percentage of children are “transitioning”—so we shouldn’t be making such a big deal out of it—I think of stories like this. As RedState’s Ward Clark points out, it doesn’t matter if the number of such cases is small—it should be zero.
What Is the Acceptable Number of Unacceptable Things? Zero.
There are several “wrongs” with this case: 1) children should not be making such monumental decisions, taking unnecessary drugs, or opting for elective surgeries that are not medically necessary, and 2) a father should not be shoved aside when it comes to the well-being of his children.
The blowback to the extreme parts of the transgender agenda was evident in the November 5 elections, and there are encouraging signs that the electorate is finally waking up to what’s been happening. As far as I’m concerned, an adult can identify as anything they want, but they do not have the right to endanger girls' sports or test their pet theories on children.
It’s macabre that we are even discussing it.

Younger plans to keep fighting and will appeal the case all the way to the California Supreme Court if he has to.
I’ll be rooting for him every step of the way.
