EXCLUSIVE: Montana Family Loses Custody Of Teenage Daughter After Expressing Opposition To Her Gender Transition

I saw this headline, and it was immediately obvious that this is not the whole story. You need to walk in this direction for a long time to make a kid eager to get rid of you in such inventive ways.
By paragraph 2 in the article, things start getting clear:
Krista, the child’s step-mother, explains that their nightmare began in August of 2023 after they received a call that their 14-year-old daughter, Jennifer*, had expressed suicidal ideations while at school.
A chatty, narcissistic stepmother, a disengaged father, and an absent mother. It’s an absolute mystery why the kid would be miserable.
Where is the mom in all this? She checked out a long time ago:
Jennifer’s birth mother, Christine, currently lives in Kitchener, Ontario with her new husband. After Jennifer was born, Christine reportedly left the child with Todd, and has never been involved in her care since.
What a peach of a family. It must have been a total shock when the daughter of such excellent, loving parents suddenly became deeply unhappy. It’s almost as if kids needed their parents, or something. Unimaginable.
Despite experiencing some real-world hardships, Krista claims Jennifer also had some undiagnosed mental health concerns, including attention-seeking behavior.
A teenage girl wants attention. What an utterly unheard-of situation. Stop the presses. A teenager seeks attention. I wonder whose attention she seeks in this particular family set-up. Of course, the stepmom steps into the breach and announces that the girl is “mentally ill.” It would not be right for anybody but the stepmom to seek attention.
The article repeats the words “Krista says” 16 times. And that’s not counting the synonyms, such as “tells”, “claims”, “explains”, and “recounts.” I imagine the life with the chatty stepmom Krista and the non-existent actual parents, and I want to snip my body parts off to stop the madness.
“Bad government agencies and doctors didn’t fix what I’ve broken, so I’m going to pout” is not a good look. Let’s not be chatty Kristas. Let’s take responsibility at least to some tiny extent.

Here’s the flipside:

Indian (legal) immigrant family hightails it back to India with their children after a teacher secretly social-transitioned their 10yo daughter at school, the kid wanted to go back to normal but was afraid the teacher would be mad at her, and then the teacher stalked her via email even after the parents took the kids and left the state.
At a guess, I’d say the parents were legitimately afraid of a long, pointless entanglement with CPS where their child would be taken into the custody of “mental health professionals” and brainwashed. Other parents interviewed in article seem to think the issue is with the teacher, also, but teacher has lots of awards so it’s anybody’s guess how that’d play out in the social services system in a west-coast state.
