California mom claims her 19-year-old daughter was ‘killed by gender ideology’

A California mother has claimed her 19-year-old daughter was “killed by gender ideology” after the CPS kicked her out of her home because her parents did not confirm her transgender identity.

Abigail Martinez stood before the California Judiciary Senate last week to blame gender ideology for taking her daughter Yaeli’s life.

Yaeli Mozelle Galdamez committed suicide in September 2019, three years after CPS took her from her mother’s home.

“My daughter was killed by a gender ideology,” she said at the hearing. “CPS took my daughter when she was 16 years old. It was aided by her public school counselor and LGBTQ group and another trans-identified girl.

“My daughter was taken from her loving home because the state of California claims I insulted her for not confirming her trans identity. I lost my daughter to a name and pronouns.’

Yaeli began questioning her gender identity when she entered high school and joined an LBGTQ+ club, where she met a friend who also identified as a boy and suggested that Yaeli’s depression might be due to her actually being a boy used to be.

Martinez said her daughter began questioning her gender identity when she entered high school and joined an LBGTQ+ club, where she met a friend who also identified as a boy and suggested that Yaeli’s depression might be because she was actually was a boy, the mother told the Daily signal last year.

She said the school had not informed her of her daughter’s wish to transfer and after expressing concern about the process, Yaeli’s school counselor advised her to be better off outside her parents’ home.

She went on to say that her daughter had “mental health issues” and was “not a boy trapped in a girl’s body.”

However, during her daughter’s transition – where she was almost immediately put on testosterone – Martinez claimed to have called her daughter by her chosen names – Jay and Andrew – and tried to support her daughter.

CPS took Yaeli to a group home and only allowed her mother to visit her for an hour once a week. Martinez told the Daily Signal that she did “everything” to try to regain custody of her daughter but was unsuccessful and she now wonders why so much of the state’s adolescent transgender community is ending up in foster care.

‘Why are there so many transgenders in foster care? Because this state takes them away from their families, tells them to run, and then steals them. Parents are given one option to treat their distressed child: take medication and remove their healthy body part or else lose your child,” she told the court.

“The abuse claim against me was eventually dropped, but it was too late. The damage was done. By this time my daughter was in terrible mental and physical pain. My daughter knelt in front of a train. She was killed by gender ideology.’

“She believed all the lies that were told to her,” the mother said. “She followed their agenda.”

The mother said it “breaks my heart” that CPS took her daughter with the ideology that taking her out of her “loving” home would give her “more.” [of a] chance of survival’ and a lower risk of suicide.

While in CPS custody, her daughter was put on hormones, named Andrew, and “adopted a dog” to make her happy, her mother claimed.

‘All them [did] didn’t work,” Martinez told the Daily Signal.

“My daughter was given testosterone instead of therapy against my consent,” she told the Senate Judiciary Committee.

She told Fox News’ Jesse Watter a California judge approved giving Yaeli testosterone. The mother claimed that all her daughter had to do was sign out and watch a video before receiving her first injection.

“She believed all the lies that were told to her,” the mother said. “She followed their agenda.”

Martinez said her daughter’s depression got worse during treatment and she begged doctors to explain the damage to her child’s body, but was told nothing negative was happening.

Taking testosterone treatments can cause sleep apnea, weight gain, vaginal atrophy, diabetes and thinning hair, among other things, according to the Cleveland Clinic.

Now the mother is urging others to stop advocating for gender transition in children.

“I beg you, stop pushing gender ideology,” Martinez told the California commission. “I don’t want a parent to feel what I feel every day. Affirmation is not good for the health, safety and well-being of any child.”
