Florida parents are suing a school district for excluding them from a meeting with their 13-year-old daughter about her "gender identity"

It's well-known that these days elementary and middle schools are happy to collude with students regarding their LGBTQ "gender identity" while refusing to inform parents on what their children are up to.

Well, at least one mother and father in Florida are not having it:

Parents in Leon County, Florida, are suing the school district for holding a meeting with their teenage daughter about her chosen gender identity without their knowledge or consent. The parents have warned that the district's LGBT policies create a "wedge" between students and their parents.

January and Jeffrey Littlejohn filed a lawsuit against the school board, Superintendent of Schools Rocky Hanna and Assistant Superintendent, Equity Officer and Title IX Compliance Coordinator Kathleen Rodgers in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida on Oct. 18.

In the lawsuit, the Littlejohns accuse the defendants of violating their substantive due process right to direct the education and upbringing of their children under the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and other rights guaranteed to them by state and federal law by excluding them from a meeting with school officials discussing their 13-year-old daughter's gender identity.

Yep.

Honestly, it's less surprising that this is happening and more surprising that it's taken this long to get here. School officials should be prepared for this sort of thing to begin happening more often, and rightfully so.

Or maybe schools could just, you know, worry about education and let people raise their own kids.
