The school employees are to keep the information secret if they suspect the parents won’t support the transition. “Surveys of minors show that they are exhibiting gender confusion in record and ever-increasing numbers. These parents challenge their local policy as violating their fundamental rights to care and make decisions for their minor children,” their brief read.
The board in its filing to the justices urged them not to hear the dispute after it was dismissed by lower courts.
