Summary
Many who promote gender identity ideology claim to champion children's rights but often serve adult agendas at the expense of the child's long-term best interests. There is danger of making irreversible decisions for children based on this ideology, which can lead to long-lasting harm. By reinforcing the authority of parents and ensuring they have the power to protect their children from such influences, society can better safeguard children's basic human rights and ensure their healthy development.
Advocacy for parenting and policymaking should focus on the long-term well-being of children, rather than their immediate expressed desires. Maintaining policies and laws that protect children’s long-term interests and empower parents to make decisions on their behalf is crucial, ensuring that children grow up in a safe and supportive environment that honors their true needs and rights.
In this bonus episode for premium subscribers, Vernadette outlines a comprehensive list of what she considers basic human rights for children, emphasizing the necessity for children to receive truthful education about science and human biology, protection of their bodies from harmful and unproven treatments, and the preservation of their future fertility. She stresses that children should have access to effective therapies that address underlying issues such as family dysfunction, autism, and trauma, rather than being subjected to experimental procedures driven by ideological influences. A key component of her argument is the critical role of parental authority. Vernadette asserts that parents, as the natural guardians of their children, should be empowered to make informed decisions that prioritize their child's long-term well-being, including safeguarding the child's right to natural development and protection from unnecessary medical interventions.
