Maine School Files For Dismissal Of Federal Lawsuit By Mother Over School Trying to Hide Her Child's Gender Transition
A school in Damariscotta was served with a federal civil rights lawsuit after one of the school's parents demanded answers about why they concealed her daughter's gender transition from her. Amber Lavinge was seeking answers from the school after finding a chest binder in her 13-year-old daughter's bedroom in December 2022. Lavinge found out that the school social worker her daughter had been seeing at school had given her the chest binder and had also been advising her on transitioning. The social worker told the daughter that the school wasn't going to tell her parents about the transition and that she also didn't need to tell her parents. Amber said, “This was unacceptable." A school employee secretly encouraged my daughter to change her gender and hide it from me. The school never stopped trying to keep me in the dark at every turn, repeatedly stonewalling me when I tried to find out what was going on. My parental rights aren’t up for debate." I deserve to know what’s happening to my child in school.”
