Should parents lose custody for intentionally misgendering their child?

they shouldnt lose custuody, but should go to a therapist to understand that it is wrong to misgender their own child.

No, but intentional missgendering should be taken into account when considering emotional and psychological abuse.

Male born children should on be allowed to be male, and female born children should only be allowed to be female.

It depends on the reasons behind the misgendering. Is it because of legal status issues, or intentional disregard for the child? The topic is too nuanced for a simple answer.

I believe if they are harming them in any way emotionally and physically because they do not agree with their child, they should lose custody.

No the should not lose custody but something should be done to try to prevent it our make it law and allowing the child to do what they want to do instead of misgendering them so young

Parents should love their children unconditionally and sometimes they have to learn and adjust from what their parents have installed in them to believe

This is stupid thats still their child and should not lose custody for calling them the gender they are.

If they’re born male then they’re a male for the rest of their life and same response if it were a female. Only 2 genders.

Yes, but only if they're feeding into the delusion.

No but if it repeated and harmful towards the child they should. I highly recomend not purposefully misgendering them.

Unless they are physically hurting their child for being a different gender, I don't believe they should lose custody unless the child believes so.

Parents shouldn't be obligated to lose their child if they misgender them if they use the gender in which the child was born with

if they are forcing them to switch genders yes, if they are sticking with their biological gender then they're fine

Not lose custody, but be monitored and warned.

Yes, but only for repeat offenders

No, but they should lose custody if they prevent social and medical transition.

No, but there should be regulations in place to prevent this

No, but people need to be properly educated on topics of transgender and nonbinary people in order to get rid of discrimination.

Yes, only if there are other signs of abuse or child neglect included.

It depends. The foster care system in this country is horrible and could possible put them in a house that has even more abuse.

They should not lose custody, but they should get a warning.

No but they definitely need to be taught how to respect others

If the child doesn’t feel safe in the home because of it, then yes

no I don't think they should but I think they should actually respect said child

No, I think they shouldn't lose custody but should go to therapy to figure out how to accept their child's decision. The child will have issues as it won't feel accepted.

it isn't really that big of a deal unless they keep doing it, but thats not too serious to lose custody over.

Parents should be educated about the harm that deadnaming causes

Not automatically, but depending on other factors, they may lose custody

Not immediately, but it could be construed as abuse

If it’s hateful and they obviously are a danger to the child yes.

Not unless their child consents

Only if they’re misgendering their child because they don’t support them, if they don’t know what their child identifies as then that’s different.

No, but their children should be able to reach out to third parties for assistance

It depends, if its harming them emotionally and physically, then yes...other than that, no

Depends on the child.

No, but I would consider them a bad parent.

No. This question is nonsense.

Maybe depending on circumstances

No but it is unfair to the child

Maybe not at first, but if intervention occurs and nothing changes, then yes.

I feel like they shouldn't lose custody but they should not be misgendering their own child.

If the child has been emotionally affected (Hospital visits, therapy) and the child has said they do not feel safe in the house hold.

Yes, but it depends how long they do so.

I think if it gets to the point where a child doesnt feel safe in their own home then maybe.

No, there are many nuances, and people should be given a chance to learn to be understanding , but if it turns abusive, they should lose custody.

Yes, but only if it is done to the point where there is emotional abuse and the child themselves wish to be removed from the home.

yes, if for long periods of time and with the intent to harm, and if it does serious mental damage to the child

No, because we can't force other people to use the correct pronouns but we still need to respect others opionions

No, but misgendering and other intentional acts of denying a child's gender identity should be considered and possibly used as evidence when a parent is investigated for emotional or psychological abuse.

No, but non-biased family therapy should be required and the decision of custody should be decided by the therapist.

Only if "misgendering" is defined as treating the child as a sex other than the sex the child was born with.

If the kids are still young I think they should still support their children, but talk to them about how life changing this is. Don't forcefully do it.

I think that parents migendering their child is a choice they make. At the end of the day, it is still their child, even if they refuse to aknowledge their stance.

No, children should not be worrying about their genders at young ages, but parents who do it as a form of abuse should.

If it was a one off instance, no, but if this is a part of a larger issue, like abuse to the child for wanting to identify as a different gender, then that should be looked at.

Although it is wrong to misgender your child intentionally, this isn't something that a parent should lose custody over their child for.

At first, know because it could be a problem with the parents' thinking, and then try to get the parents' help, and then if it continues to happen, then take the child away.

I think its important that parents respect their children but I think losing custody for simply misgendering them is very extreme

You cannot change the opinion of someone even your own parents. It should only become a problem when they’re about to use conversion therapy.

If they are purposely being homophobic and treating them harmfully for it to an extreme extent, then yes.

if they are forcefully misgendering them, if they child changes their gander and the parent doesnt comply it not a big deal if they are still young. If the child is born as a female and the parent intentionally misgenders them, then its a bigger problem.

If the kid is LGBTQ and the parents misgender isn't he just misgendering his self if he wants to dress like a girl let the kid leave if he wants to for sake let them lose custody this is such a non issue people are dying.

Yes, if it goes against what the child wants, for example if its a boy and they force it to be a girl, yes.

No but its important for the parents love there child unconditionally since they chose the have kids

unless it's harming the child's metal health/physical health, then no, but be sure to give the parents a lesson.

If there is an alternative parent (ie: an aunt, uncle, grandparent, etc.) I think it should be up to the child.

No you are a boy or your a girl scientifically you can be a hermaphrodite no trans or when men where dresses claiming to be women, just boy, girl, hermaphrodite.

Only if it is a continuing issue that is leading the child to suicidal or self harm attempts or ideas

No, but they should be evaluated to see if they are an unsafe environment for their child, as misgendering could be a sign of this.

No, but courts must intervene when intentional misgendering forms part of a broader pattern of abuse or dehumanization toward a trans child.

Yes, I think that if the kid clearly states that he does not feel supported by the parents, he has the right to leave, and the parents lose custody.

The child’s mental and physical we being should be assessed and their safety be paramount when deciding placement

I think it is disrespectful to the child and don't support misgendering but I feel losing custody over their child is to much and unnecessary unless their child wants it.

No they shouldn't but they also shouldn't do that if they know their child is uncomfortbale with that, but no they shouldn't have their child take away from them

Yes, but only if this behavior is intentional and reoccurring, and is done to humiliate and belittle the child.

i would say no but your child is your child you should respect there choice no you don't have to like it but that is there choice you should love them for who they are

No, not lose custody and have their child taken away, but they should be required to take classes and face some kind of penalties, until they properly gender their child

No, but they should be taught tolerance for their children choosing to life the life they chose for themselves.

No, but the child should be able to report this to a school counselor as a form of psychological/emotional abuse and a process should be in place to adjudicate that. An immediate move to custody removal is too extreme.

No i believe that this should only happen if it’s found to be abusive towards the kid. Parents are allowed to teach their children ideologies that they believe are important but to prevent hypocrisy there also needs to be a space for the child to have their own beliefs

Difficult to say. Only If the parent is doing this with the intention of verbally abusing them and not because they just don't understand and want to stick with what is comfortable for them.

No, but there should be laws to prevent misgendering by a parent, or at least the child is able to make a reasonable decision by themselves.

No, but there should be some other form of help or intervention for transgender youth who do not feel supported by their families.

I believe that if it's intentional and malicious, it can have a large psychological impact on the child, and that it should require further investigation into possible psychological abuse, and that consequences should move forward from there

No, I don’t think they should lose custody. There should be an intervention involving family counseling, education, and mediation rather than punishment.

No, but it should be something that's recognized and addressed with proof of the harm it does to the child.

I don't understand why they wouldn't remember their own child's gender but there might be something wrong and some people shouldn't have kids

I don't understand the question. If it is parents not respecting their child's incorrect belief of their identity, no. If it is the parents forcing their children to identify as a different gender than their assigned sex, yes.

I don't think lose custody but there should be something done because that child is still young to understand those term and has not decided that for himself

They shouldn't lose custody... But they should not be allowed to adopt or foster trans children they misgender

They should be reported to child protected services, and forced to receive counseling and gender identity education and well as education on the impacts on mental health of the child.

Boys have a penis, girls have a vagina. If a parent mis-genders that, they should have consequences.
