Podcasts about parental rights

In this episode of the Ezra Interviews, Dr. Michael Thiessen interviews Clint Elliott, the Executive Director of the Justice Defense Foundation of Kentucky, discussing critical legal issues surrounding conversion therapy bans, the role of the church in addressing these issues, and the implications for parental rights and women's rights in public spaces. They explore the impact of executive orders in Kentucky, the importance of defining biological sex, and the need for awareness and action within the Christian community to navigate these challenges. In this conversation, Clint and Michael discuss the importance of Christian advocacy in the face of cultural challenges. They introduce the AAA framework—Awareness, Awakening, and Advancement—as a guide for engaging with contemporary issues from a biblical worldview. The discussion highlights the church's need to assume a leadership role in societal matters, the importance of truth in love, and the challenges of self-censorship faced by Christians. They also explore the concept of justice in relation to the second coming of Christ and the importance of building relationships that prioritize truth over comfort.

     Slam the Gavel podcast welcomes Elizabeth McNeese to the podcast. Elizabeth is an Ohio mother of three who has been advocating for her youngest son since birth as he is a special needs child who will soon be 18.     Advocating isn't new for Elizabeth, who  is speaking out for reform and justice in the court systems. Elizabeth has co-authored legislation and is working with Ohio lawmakers to try and make things better for Ohio's families.      Living close to Columbus, Elizabeth went to the State House and started meeting with lawmakers. Starting five years ago with her first co-authored bill which was well received, as there were 61 co-sponsors in the House of Representatives. It was very popular, however it caught the judiciary and the Bar Association by surprise. They retaliated by creating their own bill and Elizabeth has been battling them to this day.      Liz also got two bills passed that were "equal parenting" bills (200 pages). The judges and the Bar successfully blocked both of them. At taxpayer expense, the Judge's then wrote their own bill (SB174), 400 pages long. Three years ago the Ohio Judicial Conference sent Elizabeth a copy of this bill that was introduced in the senate by two family law attorneys on behalf of the judges. The main judge, Judge Denise McColley, mother of Senate President Robert Mc Colley, who successfully blocked Elizabeth's bill and pitched his mother's bill at the same time. He got two family law attorneys to pick it up and it has gathered momentum. The judges support it. It was a counter bill to what Elizabeth was trying to do with her bill. Essentially SB174 wants to take away Parental Rights.      The public can help Ohio citizens, share information and email legislators and State House.To Reach Elizabeth McNeese: ermcneese@gmail.com and her YouTube channel We The Parents MovieSupportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetri*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

On June 1, 1925, the Supreme Court declared, “The child is not the mere creature of the State; those who nurture him and direct his destiny have the right, coupled with the high duty, to recognize and prepare him for additional obligations.” Pierce firmly established the liberty of parents to direct the lives of their minor children without interference by the government.You've listened to our Left Panel's discussion of Pierce – now, it's the Right Panel's turn! Today, we speak with Michael Farris, founding president of ParentalRights.org and former CEO and president of Alliance Defending Freedom; Melissa Moschella, professor of practice and philosophy at Notre Dame University's McGrath Center for Church Life; and Emilie Kao, Vice President of Alliance Defending Freedom.The EPPiC Broadcast is hosted by Michael Ramey, president of the Parental Rights Foundation.

Guest: Peter DemosOrganization: Demos' Brands and Demos Family KitchenPosition: President & CEOBook: On the Duty of Christian Civil DisobedienceTopic: two instances - one involving legislation in CO, another involving a MD school district, in a case heard by the U.S. Supreme Court - that represent an infringement on parental rights, a concept that is consistent with Scripture. His comments were based on a Townhall.com op-ed, called, "Who Owns Your Children?"Website: peterdemos.org

It's Monday, May 19th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Catholic man brutally beaten to death On May 12th, Muslims in Pakistan, including a former police officer, tortured a Catholic laborer to death over an accusation he had stolen a cell phone, reports Morning Star News. Riyasat Masih from the Punjab Province, said that his 35-year-old brother, Kashif Masih, worked on the agricultural property of former police inspector Malik Irfan for the last three years. Before the Catholic man succumbed to his injuries, he revealed that the former police inspector ordered his seven accomplices to beat him till he confessed. Tragically, they tortured him with wooden clubs and iron bars, hitting him indiscriminately all over his body. Most brutally, they even hammered several steel nails into his legs. Riyasat, a surviving brother, said, “I cannot express the pain when I saw my younger brother's body. The bruise marks showed the brutality he had suffered at the hands of his influential employer and his goons.” Please pray that justice would be done and these Pakistani Muslims are held accountable. Exodus 20:13 says, “You shall not murder.” Mexican sailing ship crashed into Brooklyn Bridge Mexican sailors were seen dangling from a navy ship's main mast moments after the ship smashed into the Brooklyn Bridge, reports The Daily Mail. The sailors had been standing atop the Cuauhtémoc's 150-foot masts in the lead up to the ship striking the iconic structure on Saturday as part of a traditional greeting.  The massive Navy vessel, reportedly carrying nearly 300 passengers, hit the New York City bridge, triggering a colossal rescue response and leaving two dead and dozens more severely injured.   In multiple eyewitness videos, the towering masts are seen snapping and partially collapsing as they crash into the bridge's deck. Sailors perched high above are thrown into chaos, with some seen clinging to the shattered beams high up in the air. It was not clear how the ship's captain had not realized that the 150-foot height of the ship was taller than the bridge's deck which was 127 feet above the water. Urge your Congressman to vote to defund Planned Parenthood In its 2023-2024 annual report, Planned Parenthood revealed that it killed more U.S. babies than ever before, ​t​aking the lives of 402,230​ boys and girls in the womb. ​ Even the New York Times and NPR are now acknowledging that Planned Parenthood is harmful and abusing taxpayer dollars. A grisly New York Times story from February 2025 features atrocious conditions at Planned Parenthood like botched abortions and leaking sewage. Shockingly, 5 women have died because of Planned Parenthood when they sought abortions.  Worse yet, American taxpayers were forced to fund $792 MILLION of this murderous mayhem – an increase of $100 million from the year before. With a GOP trifecta in Washington, it's time American taxpayers defunded Big Abortion! Thankfully, President Trump is committed to ending taxpayer-funded abortion.  It is the president's hope that his “big, beautiful bill” being debated in the House reconciliation process will defund Planned Parenthood. The challenge is that pro-lifers need every House Republican to pass the bill. After the bill failed to get out of the Budget Committee on Friday morning, May 16th in a 16-21 vote because some Republicans, like Rep. Chip Roy of Texas, didn't think it cut enough money from other sectors of the budget, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise claimed that the House WILL defund Planned Parenthood in a bill that would (a) get out of the Budget Committee and (b) pass the House in a floor vote this week, reports LifeNews.com. Call your Representative at 202-224-3121 and urge him or her to defund Planned Parenthood.  That's 202-224-3121. You can make that call any time of the day or night.  Please email me at Adam@TheWorldview.com to let me know you made this important call. Proverbs 24:11 says, “Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter" Colorado transgender law tramples parental rights And finally, for weeks, the Colorado legislature has been debating whether or not to pass HB25-1312, the so-called “Protections for Transgender Individuals” act.  The state is especially hostile to a parent who is guilty of so-called “deadnaming” or “misgendering” their child. “Deadnaming” is calling a person, pretending to be the opposite sex, by their given birth name. And “misgendering” is when someone refers to the transgender person with pronouns which reflect their actual biological sex instead of the one they are pretending to be. This law, which sadly received majority votes in the Colorado House and Senate in early May, was just signed into law on Friday, May 16th by Colorado Democratic Governor Jared Polis, a homosexual who is in a faux marriage with his so-called husband.  Now, the courts have been empowered to literally remove children from their parents who do not affirm their child's gender confusion, especially in child custody cases. To his credit, Republican Colorado State Representative Jarvis Caldwell offered an amendment to HR 25-1312 that said public schools had to have parental consent to allow a student to change his or her name in school. Sadly, it was defeated.  Listen to his passionate plea on May 6th. CALDWELL: “I ran an amendment that said you have to have parental consent to change your name in school if you are a child, and that amendment was defeated. Now let me be clear to the members in here. “In my family, names have a meaning. There's a tradition there. I named my children. Who are any of you to tell me that my child can go to school and change their name without my even knowledge? Who are any of you to say that? “I gave them their names. I was there when they were born. I was there when they said their first words and took their first steps. I was there on their first day of school. I will be there on their last day of school. I will be there when they have children of their own, and they name their children. And God willing, my children will be by my side as I lay on my deathbed and take my last breaths on this Earth. Not a single person in this room will be. “Stop putting yourselves, the government, between us parents and our children. We are sick and tired of it. It's not about hating trans people. It's about putting yourselves in between us and our kids. That's why we have fought this bill. “We received thousands of emails, thousands of phone calls, not because thousands of people around Colorado hate trans people. It's because they're sick of the bills we're passing infringing on their rights. This perhaps may be the most egregious we've seen so far. That's why we feel this way. It is not about hate. It is about love, the love I have for my kids.” May the Lord raise up more Jarvis Caldwells, true Christian statesmen, to represent Biblical values in our legislatures.

And Another Thing With Dave, by David SmithHost: David SmithGuest: Spirited JourneyEpisode Title: #436 Ideology in Psychology, Parental Rights, and the Limits of Institutional PowerIn this powerful and intellectually charged episode, David Smith and Spirited Journey explore the intersection of politics, mental health, gender identity, and institutional authority through the lens of a major study: Political Diversity in Social and Personality Psychology by Joel Inbar and Joris Lammers.The conversation opens with a breakdown of the study's core questions:How left-leaning are social and personality psychologists?Do they accurately perceive the political leanings of their colleagues?Is there a hostile climate or discrimination against conservatives in the field?David and Spirited Journey reflect on how these ideological imbalances can shape what research gets funded, what ideas are allowed to flourish, and who is deemed credible in the conversation around gender identity and mental health. They highlight that ideological bias in psychology isn't just an academic concern—it's impacting real-world policy and shaping narratives in schools, healthcare, and media.The discussion is elevated by listener messages, including questions about abuse, acceptance, and how to balance protecting vulnerable youth with maintaining institutional accountability. Real-life case studies, including disturbing stories of early medical interventions gone wrong, ground the conversation in hard-hitting truth.Follow me and find More of My Content with link belowhttps://linktr.ee/andanotherthingwithdave[00:00] Overview of the research study by Inbar & Lammers on political diversity in psychology[01:18] Listener question: how do we address parental bias without overreach?[02:30] The slippery slope of state involvement in family matters[03:25] Emotional and mental health risks of secrecy and silence in schools[04:48] Civil rights vs. group-specific rights—how to talk about unity without erasing identity[05:25] Coexisting mental health diagnoses often overlooked in gender dysphoric youth[07:33] Advocating for the few vs. the many—what does a balanced approach look like?[09:04] Disturbing case studies: early gender reassignment surgeries and long-term outcomes[13:15] Speculation and skepticism: media narratives, conspiracy, and critical thinking[16:31] What is a social personality psychologist, and why does it matter?[18:25] Acceptance, perceived abuse, and long-term psychological impacts[20:49] The danger of bypassing due diligence—what thresholds should exist before action is taken?[21:57] Final thoughts and further excerpts from the research paperIdeological Echo Chambers: Social psychology may be vulnerable to political homogeneity, which can shape scientific discourse and skew research outcomes.Parental Rights vs. Institutional Power: Schools and government agencies should maintain neutrality and not withhold information without due cause or proper evaluation.The Need for Long-Term Data: Especially regarding puberty blockers and gender-affirming care, more longitudinal research is critical.One Size Doesn't Fit All: Each child's situation is unique—policies must allow room for individualized, evidence-based care and family involvement.Human Rights First: Rather than separating civil rights into smaller categories, focus on universal human rights to foster unity and inclusion.#aatwd #andanotherthing #davesmith #podcast #conspiracies #truther #politics #uspolitics #truthseeker#AndAnotherThing #PodcastWithDave #ParentalRights #GenderIdentityDebate #PsychologyBias #SocialPsychology #AffirmativeCare #TransYouth #MentalHealthMatters #ResearchEthics #AcademicFreedom #SchoolPolicy #ChildWelfare #PubertyBlockers #CivilRights #HumanRightsForAll #CriticalThinking

What rights and responsibilities do parents have when it comes to their children? Well, according to Colorado, any parents who question or oppose the gender identity or chosen pronouns of their children are considered abusive. While we would agree that parents do not have absolute authority over their children, the limits to their authority must be determined by God. But, in our godless society, the State has stepped in and now decides when parents may keep their children. Caesar giveth and Caesar taketh away...Here is the link to Colorado's most recent bill: Colorado House Bill 1312And, as always, if you have any questions or comments, please email me at thegbgpodcast@gmail.com.You can follow also me on Facebook or Twitter, or go to http://www.ericluppold.com/And if you would like to support the show, please consider becoming a patron!

And Another Thing With Dave, by Dave SmithHost: David SmithGuest: Spirited JourneyIn this compelling follow-up conversation, David Smith and Spirited Journey tackle the layered and controversial issues surrounding gender identity, medical ethics, and parental involvement. The episode explores the real-world implications of schools using and withholding students' preferred pronouns from parents, and how that might relate to a broader “slippery slope” involving medical decisions like puberty blockers.The conversation draws parallels with long-standing debates, such as minors accessing birth control without parental consent. However, as David and Spirited Journey emphasize, the stakes are arguably higher when it comes to irreversible medical interventions. They critique the lack of long-term studies on puberty blockers and challenge the idea that these treatments are always “completely reversible.”Listener messages add depth and nuance, offering perspectives on conversion therapy, parental roles, and the consequences of institutional overreach. One listener raises a poignant scenario involving interracial relationships and parental prejudice, asking where schools should draw the line in protecting or informing parents.David and Spirited Journey also dive into the politics of academia, referencing research showing open discrimination against conservatives in psychology, and how ideological bias may shape the type of research that gets funded and published. The episode closes with case studies illustrating the real-world consequences of medical decisions made too early, too quickly, and possibly under pressure from societal norms.Follow me and find More of My Content with link belowhttps://linktr.ee/andanotherthingwithdave[04:16] Slippery slope: From pronouns to medical decisions in schools[05:08] Puberty blockers, long-term effects, and medical reversibility[06:28] Criticism of priorities: Pronouns vs. real-life preparedness[07:20] Clarifying the difference between affirmation therapy and conversion therapy[08:21] Advocacy for equality while critiquing current practices[09:16] Discrimination in academic publishing based on political views[11:08] Bias in research and funding: Is ideology replacing science?[12:13] When did DSM definitions of transgender identity change—and why?[14:13] Listener scenario: Should schools tell parents about interracial relationships?[15:19] Government neutrality in personal identity matters[17:05] Call for better school funding and more school-based mental health services[18:22] Case studies: The consequences of early medical intervention in childrenGender identity in schoolsPronouns and parental rightsPuberty blockers and informed consentPolitical bias in academic researchSchool policies and transparencyCase studies on medical ethicsDSM and transgender diagnosisConservative representation in psychologyMental health in schoolsYouth rights vs. parental rights#PodcastWithDave #AndAnotherThing #ParentalRights #PubertyBlockers #SchoolTransparency #PronounDebate #AffirmativeCare #TransYouth #MedicalEthics #PoliticalBias #PsychologyResearch #DSM5 #GenderIdentity #ConservativeVoices #YouthMentalHealth #EducationPolicy #CaseStudies #InformedConsent

Congressman Abe Hamadeh discusses the current state of the judiciary and its implications for immigration policy. Hamadeh highlights the contrasting narratives surrounding judges who harbor illegal immigrants and the ongoing crisis within the legal system. He emphasizes the importance of the No Rogue Rulings Act and the need for Congress to support President Trump. Also, Tiffany Justice, co-founder of Moms for Liberty and visiting fellow at Heritage for Parental Rights, delves into the latest developments in parental rights and education. From the implications of recent executive orders to the controversial integration of artificial intelligence in classrooms, Tiffany shares insights into what parents need to know. Later, investigative journalist Seamus Bruner joins to talk about the recent developments surrounding Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum. Bruner discusses the implications of Schwab's resignation amid allegations of financial misconduct and the broader impact on globalism.

This is CrossPoliticNews’ Weekly Roundup sponsored by "Christian Business Leaders Network." If you want to find out more about this network and its efforts to connect Christian business leaders so that they can more effectively help their businesses and shape culture, visit businessmakers.network. Again, that’s businessmakers.network. As our journalist Kevin Amundson reported, Pope Francis just died last Monday at age 88 after being Pope for twelve years. During this time, Pope Francis took an unbiblical, unchristian stance on many of the culture of the cultural issues that have gained traction around the world in the past couple decades, such as LGBTQ+ nonsense, speculative climate change, and immigration. It’s bad when a normal Christian takes a liberal view on these problems, but it’s even worse when the Pope does. However, like every ruler and person on earth, the Pope has passed away, and so the College of Cardinals has to select a new candidate. As our reporter Kevin Amundson wrote, these Cardinals and every other Christian must look back to Christ as head and remember he has authority over everything. He rules the nations, he rules the stars, he rules the President, and he rules the Pope. Christ had authority over Pope Francis, and he has authority over the next Pope, who will be the 267th Pope. Let’s pray that this next pope will better honor Christ’s authority and headship by taking a stronger, more biblical stance, against the liberalism rooted in our culture. (https://www.crosspoliticnews.com/news/pope-francis-dies-at-88) On a different note, our reporter Justin Chartrey just wrote about the ongoing tax storm blowing through Washington State. And while already the tax weather is very temperamental, it looks like it could grow even worse with the newest two bills that have been proposed by Washington State’s Senate. These two bills are Senate Bils 5812 and 5786, and they will increase taxes for levies and properties. Also, as a side note, the one involved with property taxes is also connected to providing government funds for education. Yikes. Both of these bills, though, will triple the cap of the taxes from an annual growth of 1% to 3%. Our journalist Justin Chartrey showed the disastrous effects of Senate Bill 5812 by showing how it will increase property taxes: "An 1,800 square-foot home in Spokane Valley, Washington with a property size of roughly one-third of an acre has a valuation of about $350,000. The property taxes on that home in 2024 are just over $2,700. Let that sink in. A state like Tennessee meanwhile has a property tax of about $600 a year. Under the new proposed bill, combined with a 1% population growth for Spokane County; the tax increase for 2025 would push that amount to near, if not more than $3,000 a year." (https://www.crosspoliticnews.com/news/washington-wages-war-on-its-middle-class) Meanwhile, the second Senate bill will increase liquor license taxes by 50%, which will really hurt many small businesses. So many taxes. Even Bob Ferguson, the governor of Washington State, isn’t thrilled about these taxes. If you’re living in Washington, now is the time to act against these terrible bills. Time is running out before legislatures make their decisions. Finally, our journalist Bill Peacock wrote an article about the new school choice rulings in Texas. Although the state’s House of Representatives in Texas debated on the issue for 11 hours, those who voted for school choice eventually won, securing a bill that will give money to homeschoolers and private schools in a few years. The democrats and two republicans tried to stop this bill, but it passed 86-61. While it is good that Texas is giving people the choice to pick their school and is backing their education decisions, there’s still something odd here. If we are finally securing a school bill from the state, doesn’t that mean we are still receiving orders about education from the government? It looks like the state still makes the standards when it comes to education, something that we don’t want. Yes, we shall be grateful for any progress, but let’s not stop at these pro-choice laws. The government in Texas isn’t gripping education in Texas anymore, but it also hasn’t completely let go. We must continue to press the advantage while we have it and fight for a government-free education.

Next, we turn our focus to Indiana, the latest state to pass legislation bolstering parental rights in light of growing concerns about transparency between schools and parents nationwide.

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – Conservative parents challenge government overreach as the Supreme Court weighs their right to withdraw children from LGBTQ+ or objectionable content in schools. From drag queen story hours to pandemic vaccine mandates, this landmark case could redefine parental authority, educational boundaries, and the balance between community standards and individual personal convictions.

The US Supreme Court to rule if parents will be able to opt their children out of public school curriculum featuring woke topics. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

1. Massive Drop in Illegal Border Crossings Under Trump Administration: We discuss the significant reduction in illegal border crossings under Donald Trump's administration. The policy changes, particularly ending catch and release, led to a 99.99% drop in illegal border crossings. Statistics: In December 2023, 189,604 illegal immigrants were caught and released under Biden's administration. By February 2024, this number dropped to just 20 under Trump. Policy Impact: The change in policy, where illegal immigrants were sent back to their country of origin, was highlighted as the main reason for the drastic reduction. 2. Major Parental Rights Case at SCOTUS Case Overview: The Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Mahmoud v. Taylor, focusing on whether parents have the right to opt out of radical transgender ideology being taught to their children in public schools. Parental Rights: The case is significant for parental rights, especially concerning young children in Maryland being exposed to LGBTQ+ affirming picture books and radical gender ideology. Expected Outcome: We predict that the Supreme Court will rule in favor of parental rights, allowing parents to protect their children from such teachings. 3. Elizabeth Warren Caught in a Lie Podcast Interview: Elizabeth Warren was interviewed on a podcast where she was called out for lying about Joe Biden's mental acuity.
