Joining the parents are a clergy member and two medical professionals who regularly treat trans kids in the state.
Brianna Boe and her 12-year-old transgender son, Michael, live in Montgomery, Alabama. A lawsuit she just filed against the state describes Michael as a happy child, initially; but at age 9, he “became depressed and anxious” and “started struggling academically and socially.”In June 2021, Michael told Brianna that he was trans. He started to transition socially with a new name and male pronouns, and since then, “his mood has improved greatly.
Boe is one of four parents on behalf of their children are challenging the anti-trans law in federal court. The lawsuit, filed Tuesday, asks the court to block the law from going into effect on May 8 while the case proceeds. All parents are challenging the law anonymously because of the potential criminal liability in the new law as well as the safety of their families. S.B. 184 punishes parents and medical providers for administering or suggesting gender-affirming healthcare to trans kids, the suit alleges. If the law goes into effect, violations could be punished as a felony with up to 10 years in prison. The law also bans surgeries on minor’s genitals, which do not happen in Alabama anyway.
Another plaintiff, Megan Poe, is the mother of 15-year-old Allison. Their story, detailed in the legal filing, is harrowing. As a young child, her parents refused to buy Allison girl toys and clothing “thinking it was a phase.” But her grandmother’s surprise Barbie doll gift became a balm. “Allison was so happy and carried it everywhere,” the filing states.
