Just how much say should a parent have when it comes to their child’s exposure to transgenderism and gender ideology?
President Donald Trump’s Federal Communications Commission is taking a maximalist approach to answer the question about parental rights.
But if you were to ask dozens of Democratic lawmakers, the answer to the question is apparently, “As little as possible.”
Back in April, FCC Chair Brendan Carr began pushing for stricter — or at least more comprehensive — television ratings for children’s shows, to better inform parents about the shows’ contents as well as combat what is being called “ratings creep.”
“Years ago, Congress passed a law that empowers parents to decide the types of TV programs that are appropriate for their kids by standing up a TV show ratings system,” Carr posted in April. “But recently, parents have raised concerns with the industry’s approach — including with ratings creep.”
He added, “Specifically, they argue that New York & Hollywood programmers are promoting controversial issues in kids programming without providing any transparency or disclosures to parents.”
