Why a Minn. mom is suing her transgender teen and the clinic that gave her hormones

An emotional Minnesota mother announced Wednesday that she was suing her transgender 17-year-old daughter, St. Louis County, its school district and the girl’s health-care providers over a state law that allowed the teen to undergo gender reassignment procedures without parental consent.

The woman, Anmarie Calgaro, is demanding that all therapies for her child — whom she and her lawyers refer to as her “son” in the complaint — be halted until she can petition a state court.

“Not only was I robbed of the opportunity to help my son make good decisions,” Calgaro said at a news conference, “but I also feel he was robbed of a key advocate in his life, his mother.”

Since when is it legal to do this with a minor?

As far as I knew, you couldn't even give a kid ASPIRIN without

parental consent... nor could you get your ears pierced or even

a tattoo-- but abortion and gender reassignment are okay?

Wtfuck?
