Colorado River management plans to be determined by government A devastated father in Iceland says he was stripped of his parental rights after speaking out against his 11-year-old autistic son’s sex change — a case that has drawn international attention, including from billionaire Elon Musk — as he accuses the courts of prioritizing progressive ideology over a parent’s right to protect their child. Alexandre Rocha, a French national who has lived in Iceland for 25 years, lost custody of the child to the child’s mother in December and told Fox News Digital he believes the judge ruled against him because he questioned the long-term impacts of puberty blockers and hormone therapies. “It should be a crime,” Rocha said of the medical interventions. “You are molesting kids, castrating a boy, like in the case of my kid. This shouldn’t happen. This is an ideology that has no place for kids.” He argued that his then-10-year-old — whose worldview is shaped by video games like Minecraft and Roblox — could not comprehend the permanent consequences of sex reassignment. “Naturally, every kid [after a separation and autism diagnosis] will have a mental challenge,” Rocha said. “The transition is a happy place. They do feel validated, they like the attention… To me, the concern is the long-term. Will they still be happy in four years from now, or six years, from having blockers and having more hormones? Is it really fixing what is underlying — the mental challenge or difficulty, whatever they’re going through?” Despite his child being diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder just eight months ago, Rocha said the court and medical professionals “slightly passed over” the diagnosis during the trial. Alexandre Rocha, a French national who has lived in Iceland for 25 years, lost custody of the child to the child’s mother in December. GoFundMe He noted that children on the autism spectrum often struggle with feeling “right in their skin” or “wanting to be something else,” adding that his child sometimes prefers to be a cat — wearing a tail or cat ears. However, when he raised those concerns in court, Rocha said an Icelandic endocrinologist “totally dismissed” him under oath, guaranteeing the hormone drugs posed “no problem” and refusing to examine underlying mental health factors. Now cut out of the medical decision-making process, Rocha said he fears what treatment his son may be receiving without his knowledge. The woke mind virus even affects Iceland https://t.co/RSj23Drfsg
