"It's really sad when you have all these proposed bills that kind of push the family unit away and they start creating some kind of weird secret relationship with our children. And we don't drop our kids off to have some weird relationship." -Sonja Shaw, Chino Valley Unified School District BOE president

Sonja Shaw, president of the Chino Valley Unified School District Board of Education, told CBN's Faithwire the slew of diabolical threats and messages is "a little bizarre" and said the reaction came after she and other board members opted to defend parental notification rights.

"It was a simple notification policy," Shaw said. "There were certain things when I [was] a candidate that parents were voicing concerns about, and that's why this policy was so special."

The school board leader said the issue extends well beyond Chino Valley, though, as she's hearing from people all over California who agree parents should be notified of their child's decision to identify as their non-biological gender. The Chino Valley policy mandates parents be notified within three days.

"I'm grateful that we were able to bring a model policy forward for something like that," Shaw said. "But … we did get some heat for it, but I do want to say, even though there's heat, there is so much support from all over the nation, which I truly appreciate it from the bottom of my heart."
