The bill in question has nothing to do with any parent “sterilizing [their] child”. Transgender children are not “sterilized”. The bill adds affirmation of a child’s gender identity as a consideration in determining whether a parent supports the child’s wellbeing. https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB957 https://opa.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/2023-08/gender-affirming-care-young-people.pdf
