What It’s Like to Lose Your Children to the ‘Transgender Cult,’ From a Mom Who Knows

Subscribe to Daily SignalSubscribe

Lynn Meagher has two adult children who identify as transgender. "A lot of these kids have concurrent mental health issues, and they find a place to fit in because as soon as you say that you're trans, you get love-bombed," she reflects. "You get love-bombed online, you get love-bombed on at school ... As soon as you say you're trans, you turn into a star. And kids are thirsty for that kind of affirmation."

Meagher joins us to discuss what parents should (and shouldn't) do, what resources exist, and what she thinks is going on.

We also cover the following stories:

  • A new witness testifies about President Trump's call with the Ukrainian president.
  • Trump says another key ISIS leader has been "terminated."
  • Teens are spending an insane amount of time staring at screens.
