Update on the transgender student who was threatened by parents.

As I said at the time, those "adults" who threatened Maddie should have been arrested.

See link above. This is not the first time in young Maddie's life that she's had to move due to bullying. Democrats need to be talking about this.

I guess it must have to do with their fear of anything different than their narrow lives can admit to.

I feel sad about Maddie and the stress she's living in. I hope her future will be better for her.
