First of all, never happily go along with CPS recommendations if caught up in such situations. They are not to be trusted. Second, this is why everyone should fight these collective insanities in our culture because it’s bound to get worse and worse until it’s too late

Quote:A Montana mom and dad who lost custody of their daughter after they refused to transition her gender have told DailyMail.com the ordeal 'has torn their family apart.'

Krista Kolstad revealed the family's nightmare began when they received a call that their 14-year-old daughter Jennifer told friends at school that she wanted to commit suicide in August 2023.

Quote:

Later that night, Child Protective Services (CPS) went to the Kolstad's home in Glasgow to inspect the house and interview Jennifer, later determining that she needed to transition to get better.

Krista, who is Jennifer's step mother, and the girl's biological father, Todd Kolstad, said Jennifer had a tough upbringing and several undiagnosed mental health concerns, including attention-seeking behavior and lying, which they believe caused the urge to transition and were overlooked by social services.

Ten minutes later, CPS showed up at the Kolstad's house with police and papers removing their daughter from their care, accusing them of refusing treatment.

While Jennifer was in Wyoming, she was given men's hygiene products such as body wash and deodorant.

After a month in the Wyoming facility, Jennifer was moved to a Youth Dynamics group home in Montana where she has remained ever since.

Here, Jennifer has been allowed to wear a chest binder along with only men's clothes, shave her head and attend all-boys groups.

The Kolstads were assigned a public defender, who advised them to 'play nice' and go along with CPS's recommendations.

‘We have followed their advice for the last few months and now our rights are being completely stripped away,' Mrs Kolstad said.

On January 19, the couple lost custody of their daughter to CPS, who said that allowing Jennifer to be transgender is 'in her therapeutic interest' and that her parents are 'not following recommended therapy.'

CPS was given custody of Jennifer for six months. After that, the plan is to place Jennifer in the care of her birth mother, who now lives in Canada but has never really been a part of her life.

Mr and Mrs Kolstad have chosen to defy a judge's order to remain silent on the case.

They were due to appear in court yesterday to respond to charges of contempt of court as well as hear the proposed treatment plan for Jennifer going forward, but the hearing has been delayed due Mrs Kolstad's very sick father in Ohio needing care.

Krista told DailyMail.com: 'It's been horrible... Our family unit will never be the same. Even if they returned our daughter to us now, you're not going to have the same family unit... it's created a lot of animosity on Jennifer's part towards us, she doesn't believe she has to listen to us as her parents anymore.'

Mr Kolstad said: 'I love my daughter unconditionally, and only want her to refrain from making decisions until she has the maturity and life experiences to understand what the consequences are for her actions.

It comes as a family in Indiana has asked the US Supreme Court to review their lost custody case. Jeremy and Mary Cox, who are evangelical Christians, lost custody of their son in June 2021 after they refused, for religious reasons, for him to start identifying as a girl.

California mom Abigail Martinez, has filed a document offering support of Mr and Mrs Cox. Ms Martinez lost custody of her teenage daughter, Yaeli, in 2016, who was put on testosterone and later died by suicide.

I have a friend who does family law who despises CPS. One encounter he had came when he represented grandparents who tried to get custody of their grandchildren from their drug-dealing daughter.

It turns out that Wayne Dolcefino, an attraction-seeking Houston TV news person, had set up a deal where he and his crew would accompany law enforcement on a drug raid. The raid turned out to be against the daughter and her husband. On live TV they were presented sitting around a table distributing drugs in exchange for money, with their children sitting at the table while all this was happening. CPS ruled that the daughter was entitled to the children. At trial, they filed a motion to exclude the TV footage, which the judge granted.
