The Federalist: Father Fights To Keep Government From Sterilizing His Son
A Colorado father, Robert Cameron, has lost parental rights regarding his 14-year-old son’s gender transition after raising concerns about the use of puberty blockers.

Cameron argues that the state's approach disregards parental input and promotes premature, irreversible decisions.
Cameron claims that the legal system has silenced him while allowing life-altering choices to be made without his consent. He believes the influence from Drake and her chosen therapist has led their son toward a path of medical transition, which he views as a form of grooming. The situation highlights ongoing debates about parental rights, children's autonomy, and the implications of gender transition protocols.
