California Attorney General Rob Bonta filed a lawsuit to stop a school district from enforcing a policy that requires schools to inform parents if their child requests to identify as the opposite sex as cultural battles surrounding parental rights in education continue to make headlines.

A New Jersey judge temporarily blocked three school districts from enforcing a policy that requires schools to inform parents if their child expresses a desire to identify as trans or non-binary as districts throughout the country battle similar questions about parental rights.

A California school district has enacted a policy requiring staff to inform parents if their child requests to identify as the opposite sex on the heels of violent threats that resulted in an arrest over a similar policy at another district in the state.

A school district in southern California has voted to out trans and gender-non conforming pupils to their parents. 

The state tried to warn them that the new rule is illegal.

The Murrieta Valley Unified School District's board adopted the policy Thursday night.

Backers of the policy say parents are best suited to deal with kids experiencing gender dysphoria. Foes say school might be some students' only haven.
