The United States, traditionally, has a history of protecting the rights of parents to legally abandon, neglect and abuse their children on the basis of socialized prejudice. If a child identifies as transgender, gay or bisexual, they can still be legally institutionalized or forced into aversion therapy. Or instead, be thrown to the streets or choose to run away in order to avoid such cruel treatment.

Who is going to protect these children within our borders?
