Socially transitioning children in schools is not a neutral or benign act–it is a serious intervention that can lead children down a dangerous path toward irreversible medical procedures. Florida mother, January Littlejohn, joins Freedom to Learn to explore the harm caused by gender ideology’s grip on schools, stressing the importance of safeguarding children and protecting parental rights. Drawing from her family’s experience and her extensive conversations with hundreds of other families, January explains the influence of activists, technology, and media, and advocates for legal action, policy shifts, and cultural change to address the systemic issues within K-12 schools. The Littlejohns pulled their daughter from their public middle school after discovering the school had secretly developed a gender support plan for her, a step many families take to protect their children from harm. This episode serves as both a warning and a message of hope, emphasizing that families must be proactive, informed, and prepared to fight for their children’s well-being.
