It’s good to see some people are protecting the youth

[samueltaylor]

The fact this even had to even be put into law is absolutely insane like WTF. Country going out like Rome

[richardcarroll]

It's not an anti LGBT bill. It's a child protection bill

[angelclass]

Love it! This needs to be passed in all 50 states

[youarerightbut]

To all parents in Kentucky, well done! The world is on your side !

[terrydawley]

I was beginning to think the whole country was crazy there's no way doctor should be able to do this to anybody under 18

[notadumbblond]

It's not anti LGBTQ legislation.

It's legislation to stop allowing minors to make a life-changing (forever/irreversible) decision even with parental approval.

Even our "stunning and brave" Admiral Assistant HHS Secretary Levine was quoted saying "I have no regrets because if I had transitioned when I was younger then I wouldn't have my children. I can't imagine a life without my children."

Yet that person has no problem with other people's kids being lead into something 90% of them WILL regret later.

This needs to happen all over the world.

[davidmussack]

Really, if a kid can’t vote or drink until he/she is 18, don’t mutilate their little bodies.

[ChrisField-ocyf]

It's not an anti trans bill. It's a bill to protect children. But the main stream media has to push a narrative rather than just reporting the news

[saidibrahim]

Congratulations Kentucky, we need this legislation in Canada 🇨🇦

[country]

This entire country owes the people of Kentucky immense gratitude for standing up and saying " Enough is ENOUGH !" Now they have shown us the way, Let's see if the rest of the country can keep up.

[Bloodyfury]

Congratulations Kentucky from France. It gives me hope for the United States and Humanity.

[ednowliniii]

Way to go Kentucky! Finally someone with a backbone.

[descent]

This absolutely needs to be implemented throughout the country. This is great!!!!

[marylandmat]

This needs to be a federal law in every state in the United States of America

[akanekitaouji]

This bill should be implemented throughout the USA

[Bricksallday]

All of Canada and all of US needs this, asap.

[stevengaffney]

This needs to be extended tO every state

[mistannybell]

This needs to happen in EVERY STATE! I'm in California and am disgusted at what is allowed here. How did this turn into taking away the rights of parents? There is NO room for this type of parental interference. Sorry, but the pendulum has swung WAY too far in the wrong direction. The alphabet community don't only want rights for themselves, they want the rights of others taken away to conform to their "comfort levels" which they can't even agree on amongst themselves.
