Ruth Institute Founder and President, Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, Ph.D., expressed relief that the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services is
“reviewing allegations of child abuse” in the case of James Younger – a seven-year-old boy whose mother wants to “transition” him into a girl.
Last week in Dallas, Judge Kim Cooks awarded the parents (who are involved in a bitter battle over the upbringing of James and his twin brother, Jude)
joint medical decision-making. However, her ruling could be changed at any time.
In a webcast of The Dr. J Show on the Ruth Institute Youtube page, Morse revealed the hidden dimensions of this case, commonly known by the hashtag #SaveJames.
“The case is not just about transgenderism. It’s also about divorce. The family courts have too much power. This judge had the authority to grant everything
the mother requested. That she didn’t is probably due to extraordinary public pressure. Still, whether the father cuts the boy’s hair, dresses
him as a boy, or is sufficiently ‘affirming’ can determine whether he gets to see his own sons.”
“The case is also about third party reproduction,” Morse said. “James was conceived with a donated egg. The mother carried him to birth but has no
genetic connection.”
In the webcast, Morse noted: “People who are determined to have a child at all costs sometimes develop serious control issues. The child becomes a
project of one parent or the other. That appears to be the case here, with the mother so controlling that she wants to force her son to live as
her ‘daughter.’”
“And, of course, the case is about the transgender ideology, too. With virtually no clinical standards, adults are making irrevocable decisions that
affect young children. This little boy is perfectly healthy. The sex of his body is not ‘wrong’ and does not need to be surgically or chemically
altered.”
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, a conservative, suggested the state’s Attorney General look into the matter. A letter from the Texas AG asked the Department
to examine the case, urging it to “investigate possible child abuse against seven-year-old James Younger, whose mother has proposed chemically
and surgically altering his biological sex based on her belief that he may identify as a girl.”
In her groundbreaking webcast,
Morse shows that: “Transgenderism, third-party reproduction and divorce all increase the power of the state over the lives of ordinary people.
This is the Sexual Deep State at work.”
Morse explained, “Our defense of James Younger is part of the Ruth Institute’s overall mission to counter the Sexual Revolution and speak out for its
victims.”
The Ruth Institute is a global interfaith non-profit organization equipping Christians to defend the family and build a civilization of love.
