    So they admitted they wouldn’t be able to honor a child’s care plan and that their opinion on that particular matter would weigh more than…the kid themselves, their family of origin, their doctor and psychologist and any other medical team member…

    A social worker’s report attached to the complaint said the couple was asked how they would feel if a child in their care identified as LGBTQ or struggled with their gender identity. Kitty Burke responded by saying “let’s take the T out of it” and called gender-affirming care “chemical castration,” according to the report. She also said, “I’m going to love you the same,” but that the child “would need to live a chaste life.” Both Kitty and Michael Burke expressed hesitation around using a transgender or nonbinary person’s preferred pronouns, the social worker’s report noted.

    So another crazy Christian couple who want to stockpile orphans and foster children to prop up their church ledger? Prepare for indoctrination, brain washing, physical violence, mental violence and the continued effort to prop up extremist church ledgers.
