Take Abigail Martinez, a single mother of four, living in Los Angeles, Calif., whose trans-identifying teenager was removed from her custody in 2016 by a judge interpreting non-affirmation as “emotional abuse.” Oddly, the judge permitted Martinez to retain custody of her other three children and to continue working as a nanny. After three years of her daughter living in state custody and undergoing hormone treatments, the abuse charges against Martinez were changed by the Department of Child and Family Services from “substantiated” to “inconclusive.” But too late; the damage was already done. One month later, her daughter — by then a severely depressed 19-year-old who’d spent critical years away from her loving family — took her own life by kneeling in front of a freight train.
