A WOMAN is suing her 17-year-old transgender daughter for starting her transition without permission.
Anmarie Calgaro is suing her daughter and several healthcare providers in Minnesota, saying her parental rights were violated when the teen started sex-reassignment treatment without her consent.
Ms Calgaro referred to her child as her son throughout a media conference.
“Not only was I robbed of the opportunity to help my son make good decisions, but I also feel he was robbed of a key advocate in his life, his mother,” Ms Calgaro told reporters.
The teen filed emancipation papers in June 2015 but did not take legal action to terminate her mum’s parental rights.
In those documents it states that the teen’s mum “made it known to him that she no longer wishes to have any contact with him” and that she “knows where he is and has made no attempts to bring him home”.
The teen said that while her mum had custody that she did not report her as a runaway even six months after she fled the house.
Ms Calgaro told reporters she was not opposed to the teenager’s gender transition, but she wanted the child to “slow down”.
The teenager turns 18 in July.
