Should parents lose custody for intentionally misgendering their child?

  Party’s support baseNo

Bobby Rush’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT Party Research

Agree

No

Most Democrats would oppose the idea that parents should lose custody solely for intentionally misgendering their child, favoring education, counseling, and support over punitive action. While the party supports affirming care and protection for transgender youth, Democratic lawmakers have not proposed or supported laws that remove custody for misgendering alone. For example, California and other blue states have passed laws to protect transgender youth, but these focus on access to healthcare and safe environments, not automatic custody loss for misgendering.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The Democratic Party generally supports transgender rights and opposes discrimination based on gender identity. However, the party has not advocated for parents to lose custody solely for intentionally misgendering their child. While some progressive activists may call for strong protections for transgender youth, mainstream Democratic policy and legislation (such as the Equality Act) focus on anti-discrimination and support services, not punitive measures like custody loss for misgendering. There is no significant precedent in Democratic-led states or federal proposals for such an extreme consequence.
