“[T]his bill prohibits parents from retaining mental health professionals to assist their own children even if the minor request the therapy”

“Efforts to change minors’ sexual orientation are not therapy, they are the relics of prejudice and abuse that have inflicted untold harm on young lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Californians” CP Story

How in the world can they do that?

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.

Notice this quote from Exodus Intl.:

[] I think counseling is a wonderful tool for anybody regardless of what struggle they bring to the table,” Chambers said in an interview with CP in mid-June. “I think we can all use a little bit of counseling on planet earth today. But when it comes to reparative therapy, the reason we have distanced ourselves from it is because some of the things that they employ and some of the messages that I’ve heard from reparative therapists with regards to what someone can expect once they get through that type of therapy.
