HOUSTON -

Attorneys are filing a lawsuit on behalf of two women who say they were wrongfully terminated from a Katy area day care center amid controversy over a 6-year-old transgender child.

Christian author Madeline Kirksey said she was fired as the manager of Children's Lighthouse Learning Center because she refused to go along with parents who decided to recognize their little girl as a boy. Her coworker, Akesha Wyatt, was also fired.

Houston attorney Andy Taylor, fresh off his legal victories challenging Houston's HERO issue and rain tax, is challenging the terminations.

"This case involves a little 6-year-old girl who has been attending a private school in Katy, Texas for the last four months as a little girl. She has parents who are a same-sex couple, two men, who decided that she was transgender," Taylor said Tuesday afternoon at a news conference. "On Friday, that little girl left school. I'm not going to use names, but (she was) known to everybody as 'Sally,' and on Monday, this little girl returns to school calling herself 'Johnny.'"

The former staff members said the parents returned the girl to school with shortened hair, demanding that the school change her name. Taylor said the abrupt change was "dumped" in the laps of the administrators without warning.

Kirksey said her religious beliefs made her approval of the change impossible, and she felt that she had a duty to protect the girl from possible bullying and help dozens of other children and their parents, who she said deserved to be told about the change. She said those beliefs cost her a job.

The firings triggered a national firestorm amid growing confusion in schools across the country about handling very young transgender children and their parents' choices.

That is the point CP, liberals will never be happy until join in with, and fully approve, their madness...

sheesh. I guess if parents decided their kid was a Ferrari, then the school would have to provide a garage for them.

umm children are NOT capable of making these decisions. end of story.

LOL, a heated garage!

I guess that makes all children gay, because if you ask any child of around 6 what they think of the opposite sex, they will tell you that they have cooties.

What? You mean boys don't have cooties! Getting married gets rid of the cooties, making it okay for the man and woman to reproduce!

yes. I wouldn't care if the parents were hetero, they'd still be wrong.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that Starlight will have no problem with it, and Sam will say something along the lines of "Kirksey's religious beliefs should not be a determining factor in how she goes about her job."

I think Sam is pouting.

Is there ever a time when the opposite sex ceases to have cooties?

No, but once you get infected, you stop caring.

Girls never do...

[Christianbookworm]

Boys never lose cooties! All humans have cooties! Wait... but, what about Jesus? I don't want to claim He has cooties....
