Throwing “parental rights” into any conversation is going to ring alarm bells. And parents ,of all stripes, are immediately going to get defensive. Just by saying that phrase, Danielle set the stage. And for many parents, any attempt for a reasonable conversation went out the window because all they could hear was that parental rights were being threatened. And here’s the huge irony, Danielle has taken away the right of parents to make the best decisions for their own child, and put the rights in the hands of a very biased government. No parents are winners here- and definitely no child.

The stupidity of this infuriates me. A phrase was used as a trigger. And it worked.
