USA GC legal-lawyer hunt

[DolphinMomma]

I've got a ftm 17yo who has been showing mental health symptoms since 2016.  Dad is "affirming" that trans is the culprit and she needs to be supported.  The mental health doctors say she is desperately trying to fit into some mental health issue (bipolar, DID-Multiple Personality Disorder) but she is "over acting" to the point of harming herself in the process.  She keep saying she's a 23yo man.  This delusion in and of itself if a measure to stop and not "affirm" and transition her into medicalization as "trans". 

I need legal counsel to help me fight my husband and fight for conservatorship of my daughter. 

Any leads?
I'm in Southern California, USA.

Hi DolphinMomma, 
I'm sorry to hear about your daughter. I think a good place to start might be here:
https://childparentrights.org/

They are not in California but I believe they will help people from around the country.
I also invite you to post your query in the members-only section, as members don't visit this public part of the forum too often. I'm afraid it won't get seen by too many people here.

Best of luck to you! Keep us posted!

I keep trying to each childparentsrights.org, no luck thus far.  They must be busy.

I'm not familiar with forums so navigation is confusing me.  How does one find and post in the "member section"?

You're already a member so you have access to the members area. Any area or thread that has a royal blue header, as opposed to the teal blue header on this discussion, is in the members' area. Up at the top of any page, click on "view new posts" or "view today's posts" and you should be able to find newer posts in the members area. I hope that helps. Navigation takes a little getting used to, but click around a bit and you'll get the hang of it easily. Members are also here to help, so just ask if you have questions.
