California Bill Would Enable Therapists to ‘Emancipate’ 12-Year-Olds from Their Own Parents
- California Democrats have introduced legislation that allows mental health professionals to remove children from their homes and place them in state custody without parental consent.
- The legislation, Assembly Bill 655, would also allow children to receive counsel on gender identity from school psychologists and uncredentialed trainees without parental consent.
- Critics argue that the bill eliminates the requirement for a 12-year-old to be in danger of harm, self-inflicted or otherwise, before providing consent to leave their home, effectively granting children the power to leave their families without any notice or claim of harm.
