Todd and Krista Kolstad share their struggles with the state of Montana over their daughter's removal for lack of gender affirmation. They discuss navigating adolescence, online deception, bullying, parental shock, hospital manipulation, legal battles, and challenges faced by their transgender daughter Leo.

Today we're joined by Todd and Krista Kolstad, Montana parents who find themselves entangled in an ongoing months-long custody battle for their 14-year-old daughter. The couple candidly open up about the challenges they faced and the heartbreak they endured after losing custody of their daughter. Montana's Child and Family Services gained custody of their daughter when they refused to affirm her newfound "gender identity" as a boy. We delve into the origin of the dispute, starting as a seemingly minor disagreement and escalating into a legal battle that no parent could anticipate. The Kolstads courageously navigate through the difficult terrain of their daughter's claims of wanting to harm herself, shedding light on the emotional toll this took on their family. Then, we give our take on the corruption within government organizations created to "protect" children and how we can fight back against cases where their actions are not for the good of children.The Kolstads' GiveSendGo: https://www.givesendgo.com/GBMG9---Timecodes:(00:31) The Kolstads' story(45:45) How to support(46:17) Allie's thoughts---Links:The Kolstads' GiveSendGo: https://www.givesendgo.com/GBMG9Reduxx: "EXCLUSIVE: Montana Family Loses Custody Of Teenage Daughter After Expressing Opposition To Her Gender Transition" https://reduxx.info/exclusive-montana-family-loses-custody-of-teenage-daughter-after-expressing-opposition-to-her-gender-transition/ABC 15: "Montana governor defends removal of 14-year-old from parents who opposed gender identity" https://wpde.com/news/nation-world/montana-governor-defends-removal-of-14-year-old-from-parents-who-opposed-gender-identity-greg-gianforte-krista-todd-kolstad-lgbt-transgender-social-transition-custody---Relevant Episodes:Ep 914 | Holistic Parents Targeted by the State | Guest: Emily Donlin https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-914-when-the-state-comes-for-your-child-guest-emily-donlin/id1359249098?i=1000636966590Ep 603 | How CPS & Foster Care Corruption is Killing Kids | Guest: Naomi Schaefer Riley https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-603-how-cps-foster-care-corruption-is-killing-kids/id1359249098?i=1000558186236Ep 798 | America’s Sacrificing Orphans on the Altar of Transgenderism | Guests: Jessica Bates & Christiana Kiefer https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-798-americas-sacrificing-orphans-on-the-altar/id1359249098?i=1000611489190Ep 653 | Losing Custody of Your "Trans" Daughter | Guest: Jeannette Cooper https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-653-losing-custody-of-your-trans-daughter-guest/id1359249098?i=1000574808916---Buy Allie's book, You're Not Enough (& That's Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love: https://alliebethstuckey.com/bookRelatable merchandise – use promo code 'ALLIE10' for a discount: https://shop.blazemedia.com/collections/allie-stuckey Learn more about your ad choices.
