'And it doesn't matter what their parents think'

A commentary by Katrina Trinko, editor-in-chief of The Daily Signal, is warning of a California scheme that would, in essence, remove parental custody for children 12 and older.

It explains that a legislative plan, AB 665, concerning mental health care for lower-income people, would let a stranger give permission to children "as young as 12 years old to consent to being placed into state funded group homes without parental permission…"

The law wouldn’t even require that parents be informed of the situation.

"As long as a mental health professional signs off on it, the kids can go to such a group home – and it doesn't matter what their parents think," the report explained.

Erin Friday, a California mom of two teens, told the Daily Signal, "This bill gives a stranger, a school psychologist, power to decide whether a sixth or seventh grader comes home from school that day, and that’s terrifying.

"This bill is essentially stating that parents are criminals that have to prove their innocence to get their child back."

Folks, it's California.
This will probably pass.
Perhaps easily...

Does that mean that parents of teenagers can hand them over to be raised as wards of the state?

After handing teenagers over to be wards of the state, does that mean the state would have to pickup the cost of college, healthcare, food, clothes, holiday gifts, and transportation?  Sounds like a financial liberation plan for parents of teenagers.

I’d bet good money parents would still be on the hook for costs, and there will be provisions in there allowing the state to seize their assets without going to court first.

California bill to prevent schools secretly transitioning kids without parental consent won’t get hearing

A California bill that would have required teachers, school counselors, and other school staff to inform parents within three days if their child has adopted a transgender identity will not even be granted a first hearing.

AB 1314, authored by Assemblyman Bill Essayli, was assigned to the Assembly Education Committee chaired by Assemblyman Al Muratsuchi. On April 10, Muratsuchi announced that the bill would not even receive a first hearing “not only because the bill is proposing bad policy, but also because a hearing would potentially provide a forum for increasing hateful rhetoric targeting LGBTQ youth.”...

The money quote:

No, it's objectionable simply because it is proposing extremely bad policy.

If this doesn't pass now, it will be "re-structured" and re-introduced at a later time...

What I see happening there, is the State will take the kids, the parents will lose control, the State will hire swarms of 'experts' to run their social camps, and send the bill to the parents.
