Julie LuquettaCORRESPONDENT
Citing the American College of Pediatricians, an anti-LGBTQ and religious advocacy group, petitioners said the story promoted body confusion and asked the library to remove picture books that affirm gender fluidity.

In a memo considering the request, Boise Library Director Jessica Dorr said a staff review found the book was age-appropriate, did not contain sexually explicit material, and did not meet the criteria for removal.
Julie LuquettaCORRESPONDENT
She also wrote, quote, The library makes available a variety of viewpoints and does not limit access to information because some find it objectionable.

Uh, and, and less commonly the, the lower extremities just 'cause you are kind of a little bit kind of, uh, sheltered from the, uh, pedals and, you know, the e-bike itself.
Shawn MohanGUEST
Uh, but definitely by, by far and large the, you know, number one is head and neck injuries that can happen with this, and that's why you mentioned wearing a helmet from the American College of Pediatrics is such an important, uh, step to take when, when getting onto an e-bike, um, for a user.
Paul W. SmithHOST
I think, uh, um, I think he-- I think Simon Cowell is a very wealthy producer and star of, I think it's America's Got Talent, uh, one of those shows.
Paul W. SmithHOST
Uh, he does it in England and he does it in America.
Shawn MohanGUEST
Um, you know, some other ones can be, you know, wrist or, you know, upper extremities as you're kinda bracing your fall, you know, from an, uh, an e-bike, uh, and, and less commonly the, the lower extremities just 'cause you are kind of a little bit kind of, uh, sheltered from the, uh, pedals and, you know, the e-bike itself.

Paul W. SmithHOST
I think Simon Cowell is a very wealthy producer and star of, I think it's America's Got Talent, uh, one of those shows.
Israel WayneHOST
And I know I just said that, and that sounds weird.
Israel WayneHOST
like that might be off to you, but I would encourage you to check out an article written by the American College of Pediatrics that did a survey of all the different studies that have been done on the issue of spanking.
Israel WayneHOST
While most of the college and academic studies related to spanking tend to give it a negative light and say that there will be negative outcomes if you spank your children, this overview of those studies shows that they have fallacious inputs and that those fallacious inputs lead to fallacious conclusions.
Israel WayneHOST
And so as people who really want to understand the truth, I would encourage you to check out that article by the American College of Pediatrics, which is their professional review of these studies and how they have inherent bias.
Israel WayneHOST
So the children who actually end up being the most well-rounded, who respect their parents and have close relationship with their parents as adults and the most likely to have a good relationship with God are those who were appropriately disciplined by loving parents in their childhood and physical discipline.
Israel WayneHOST
The Gen 2 survey is one study that reveals that as well as others.

Israel WayneHOST
When they get to like six to nine years old, you start kind of looking for more consequence-based things.
Israel WayneHOST
And probably by nine years old, you're trying to phase that out, not really using spanking as a method.
speaker_1SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And the tool that is being used, the weapons that are being used, is comprehensive sexuality education.
speaker_2SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
As president of the American College of Pediatricians, I am deeply concerned about comprehensive sexuality education for four reasons.
speaker_2SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
First, it sexualizes children.
speaker_2SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Second, it threatens children's health.
30 MINS LATER
Judith ReismanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I described to them the basis of the Kinsey books and held up the Children of Table 34.
Judith ReismanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And the Constitutional Court banned that sex education program.
speaker_2SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The American College of Pediatricians wants policymakers to understand this.
speaker_2SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
When considering a sexuality education policy, be certain you specify that it be a sexual risk avoidance program.
Christina FrancisHOST
Now, this case has sparked really, uh, robust national discussion about prenatal diagnoses in general, about commercial surrogacy, about disability discrimination, and also the obligations that us, as physicians, have to care for both mother and child.
Christina FrancisHOST
And in response, just recently, aplog and the American College of Pediatricians released a joint statement affirming that a preda- a prenatal diagnosis should never diminish a child's humanity, their dignity, or their right to appropriate medical care.
Christina FrancisHOST
I'm so honored today to have back with us on Observations a dear friend and colleague, Dr. Jill Simons.
Christina FrancisHOST
Jill is the executive director of the American College of Pediatricians and a board-certified pediatrician with decades of experience caring for children and advocating for their well-being.
Christina FrancisHOST
Dr. Simons has served in private practice, led pediatric departments, helped establish NICU and pediatric trauma programs, and has been a strong voice on issues affecting children and their families throughout her career.
Christina FrancisHOST
The American College of Pediatricians is also a dear, um, partner for aplog as we tackle, uh, many issues that are facing medicine and our culture today.
Christina FrancisHOST
So today, Jill and I are gonna discuss what this case reveals about the current state of medicine, the ethical responsibilities that we as physicians have when a serious prenatal diagnosis is made, and why pediatricians and obstetricians are speaking together in defense of society's most vulnerable patients.
Christina FrancisHOST
So, Dr. Simons, thank you so much for being with us today on Observations.
Stella MorabitoGUEST
Um, they, you know, and, and, uh, uh, you know, there's the American Academy of Pediatrics that, that bought into the whole transgender thing.
Stella MorabitoGUEST
Um, now there's a small parallel institution called the American College of Pediatricians that's against all that stuff, and it's getting some traction, a little bit of traction now.
Stella MorabitoGUEST
Uh, as far as sports is concerned, um, okay, so that, that's a, um, you know, what you call a parallel institution, would be the American College of, uh, Pediatricians.
Stella MorabitoGUEST
But, um, then, then there's, you know, uh, all different levels.
Christina CirucciGUEST
It is very concerning.
George HaraksinGUEST
And then you mentioned this quote from the American College of Pediatricians.
George HaraksinGUEST
Well, maybe we should talk about sometimes the issue of suicide comes up.
George HaraksinGUEST
And you mentioned this in the article.
5 MINS LATER
Christina CirucciGUEST
This isn't the right thing.
Christina CirucciGUEST
And so, yeah, it's I mean, we all know it's a very polarized issue, but.
George HaraksinGUEST
At the end of the beneficence section, you quote from the American College of Pediatricians, and they said that, quote, there is not a single long-term study to demonstrate the safety or efficacy of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries for chance-render-believing youth.
George HaraksinGUEST
This means that youth transition is experimental.
Kat Van BurenHOST
And it says that making the family table a priority from an early age can serve as a vaccine against many of the harms that come to children from a hurried lifestyle.
Kat Van BurenHOST
And these statistics come from the American College of Pediatricians, their website.
Kat Van BurenHOST
So we have a legit source here.
Kat Van BurenHOST
This is kinda shocking to me, because family dinners feels like not the biggest deal in the world, especially now in our society, I feel like we are very hurried.
