A Virginia mother is suing her local school district which she says declined to notify her that her daughter was identifying as a male at school and was being harassed and assaulted by other students.

’ failure to notify her led to her daughter running away from home and being sexually abused around the country.

“Notably, Mrs. Blair was notified and had to consent to her daughter receiving a Tylenol at school, yet was never informed about something as consequential as being affirmed as a boy, using the boys’ bathroom and being harassed and sexually assaulted at school,” states the 54-page lawsuit, which was filed Aug. 22 in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia.The legal case highlights the tensions between the parental rights movement and the LGBTQ movement.

Aneesa Khan, who works for the Maryland Office of the Public Defender, is listed as a defendant and declined to comment. The Blair family is suing the district for allegedly violating Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, saying it was indifferent about Sage’s claims of sexual assault and harassment at school, and for allegedly violating civil and privacy rights.

“We are overrun,” said Ms. Broyles, president and general counsel for the Child & Parental Rights Campaign. “[Lawsuits] are being filed all the time.” Around the same time, another California school system — Spreckels Union School District — decided to settle a lawsuit with a family for $100,000 after withholding information about a student’s gender transition and reportedly encouraging the gender change.
