The lawsuit filed Nov. 17 by two public interest law firms against the Kettle Moraine School District in Wisconsin over the clandestine social transition of a 12-year-old girl marks the latest in a series of cases where school officials allegedly initiated social gender transitions without parental consent.
The Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty, one of the public-interest firms suing the Waukesha-area school district, is also involved in litigation against the Madison Metropolitan School District. But one attorney involved in the litigation tells the Daily Caller News Foundation that policies and guidelines that are prompting schools to carry out clandestine transitions are in place across the country.

“[T]his sort of thing is metastasizing like a cancer underneath the surface around the country,” Vernadette Broyles, president and general counsel of the Child and Parent Rights Campaign, told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
Broyles represents Jeff and January Littlejohn in a lawsuit that alleges that Leon County Schools in Florida began helping their daughter transition without their consent after their daughter experienced gender dysphoria during the spring and summer of 2020.
Mrs. Littlejohn told the DCNF she emailed her daughter’s math teacher, explaining that they “weren’t affirming at home,” but that they “didn’t feel like we could stop our daughter from using a nickname.”
