Two Indiana parents are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to hold the state accountable for removing their gender-confused child from their home due to their Biblical beliefs about sex and gender.
Mary and Jeremy Cox filed a Petition for Writ of Certiorari Thursday asking the high court to review the removal of their son, who identifies as a girl, from their home because they did not use female names or pronouns when addressing their child.Â
“This is what every parent is afraid of. We love our son and wanted to care for him, but the state of Indiana robbed us of that opportunity by taking him from our home and banning us from speaking to him about gender,” said the couple. “We are hopeful that the Justices will take our case and protect other parents from having to endure the nightmare we did.” Â
As CBN News reported, in June 2021, the Indiana Department of Child Services (DCS) initiated an investigation of their home because they were not referring to their son with a cross-gender name and pronouns, nor were they endorsing their child’s self-identification as a girl, because of their Christian faith.
