Jennifer, a 14-year-old girl living in Montana, USA, had a not-so-good childhood.
Her birth mother left home when she was very young and only appeared in her life as a passerby. Jennifer and her sister disliked her mother very much, and the school teacher said that in the eyes of the sisters, the biological mother was a cold and cruel woman.
Jennifer's special childhood fostered Jennifer's withdrawn personality, and she was often bullied at school and lived a very unhappy life.
Fortunately, she also has a biological father and adoptive mother who are in charge.
In order for her to have a healthy childhood, her father, Todd, and her adoptive mother, Christa, took her to a new school, hoping that she would have a fresh start.
Jennifer and her dad, stepmom).
It's a pity that their efforts didn't bring back a lively and cheerful daughter.
In August 2023, Jennifer told a friend at school that she was planning to commit suicide, and from then on, the family's nightmare began to ......
Later that day, Child Protective Services (CPS) visited Jennifer's home and was questionedJennifer said she drank toilet bowl cleaner and also overdosed on painkillers and attempted suicide.
Mr. and Mrs. Todd said it was a great wrongful ......
They said that Krista was a full-time housewife who stayed at home every day, and that Jennifer could not have been exposed to these two things at all, and that Jennifer had a habit of making up stories, and that investigators should investigate first.
In order to prove their innocence, the Todds took Jennifer to a local hospital for a check-up, and a blood test confirmed that Jennifer had indeed not ingested any toxic substances.
The Todds cleared their name, but the farce didn't end there.
Jennifer with stepmother).
Doctors found out during the examinationJennifer considers herself male and wants others to call her "Leo".
Not surprised, the Todds said Jennifer had told them about transgender ideas when they were 13, but they didn't agree at the time.
The reasons are complicated, firstly, Montana prohibits minors from undergoing medical transition surgeries, and secondly, the couple are traditionalists and do not praise gender change.
So they rejected Jennifer on the grounds that "Jennifer is too young to make a decision". In the following year, Jennifer never mentioned transgenderism, they thought it was over, but this time she brought it up again.
They asked the hospital staff to call Jennifer by her real name, citing her religious beliefs. Unexpectedly, the hospital's attitude was very tough, they said that they would do what the patient asked, and if there was any objection, you were welcome to go to their lawyer.
The doctors also told Jennifer,While Montana prohibits minors from undergoing medically overoperated surgery, "social transition" is a "gray area of the law."She could be a titular man first and wait until she became an adult before undergoing surgery.

Regardless of what the doctor says, the Todds are finally free from suspicion of child abuse, and it's time to discuss how to help Jennifer.
Mr. and Mrs. Todd agreed with CPS that Jennifer should be sent to a mental health hospital for hospitalization** and counseling, but when it came to choosing a hospital, the two sides disagreed.
There are 6 related hospitals in Montana and only 1 in Wyoming; Underage transsexuality is not allowed in Montana, and Wyoming does.
Mr. and Mrs. Todd certainly wanted Jennifer to go to the Montana State Hospital**, but before they could argue for hours, a group of royal police officers showed up at their home with papers, informed them that there were beds in the Wyoming hospital, and then forcibly took Jennifer out of the ...... despite the Todds' objections
When Jennifer arrives at a hospital in Wyoming, she finally fulfills her dream of being a boy. She cut her hair short, wore men's clothing, used men's hygiene products, and participated in boy-only groups.
Things are out of the Todds' control.

By January 19, 2024,CPS confiscated custody of Mr. and Mrs. ToddBecause they "didn't follow the recommended **" to allow Jennifer to be transsexual.
According to the plans of the CPS,They were ready to take care of Jennifer for 6 months and then send her to Canada, to her biological mother's side.
It's the woman Jennifer thinks is cold and cruel).
The local judge asked the Todds not to challenge the plan, and the Todds were ready to appeal, but even the defenders advised them to be friendly and comply with the CPS's recommended ......
The Todd family).
Mr. and Mrs. Todd were furious.
Stepmom Krista said they had been following advice for the past few months, but listen, even custody was taken away!
Our home will never go back to the way it used to be!
Even if she gives her daughter back to us now, she will no longer follow her parents' advice......In their care, our daughter became very hostile to us! ”
Todd & Jennifer).
Netizens are also on the side of the Todds, who feel that children should not undergo sex reassignment surgery when they are minors, and more importantly, this behavior should not be encouraged:
It turns out that our cognitive reasoning skills don't fully mature until they're 25 years old.
A 14-year-old is not empowered enough to decide what is best for him, and it is up to the parents to make decisions for their children unless they are abusive parents.
Not letting a child transgender is not abuse, but protecting them from matters that they don't yet understand. When they reach the age of 18, they can decide for themselves.

This type of surgery should not be done on people under the age of 25.
In the United States, you can only drink alcohol at the age of 21, why can you be transgender at this age? These parents are so pitiful......

So if this child regrets it in the future, can she sue the ** who encouraged her in the first place? Although money can't make up for physical defects, it can at least be compensated......
