<p>Switzerland&#8217;s highest court has ruled that a mother and father must facilitate their daughter&#8217;s gender transition or face criminal charges, The Daily Wire has learned.</p>
<p>The Swiss Federal Supreme Court (Schweizerisches Bundesgericht) rejected an appeal from the parents, who argued that both the Swiss Federal Constitution and international law protected their right to protect their daughter from a sex change, according to ADF International, the legal group backing the parents. They have been separated by court order from their daughter for over a year and a half because they objected to this transition attempt, according to ADF International, which said the court&#8217;s judgement was made on November 6 but embargoed until this week.</p>
<p>The parents are considering appealing to the European Court of Human Rights in order to protect their daughter, The Daily Wire has learned.</p>
<p>“We are heartbroken,&#8221; the father said in a statement to The Daily Wire. &#8220;We love our daughter and only want what’s best for her. We know this decision is not in her best interest.&#8221;</p>
<p>“That we could face criminal charges for simply trying to care for our daughter shows how deeply embedded transgender ideology is in Swiss institutions and the real harms it causes,&#8221; he added. “We are considering our next steps.”</p>
<p>The parents <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-parents-ask-swiss-supreme-court-to-block-daughters-gender-transition">had appealed a July ruling</a> from Geneva’s Court of Justice, which ordered them to turn over their daughter’s legal documents in order for the state to help her change her sex in the civil registry from female to male. She first began expressing confusion with her gender when she was around 13-years-old, according to her father. When her parents declined to put her on puberty blockers, they embarked on a years-long legal battle that resulted in the government removing her from their care.</p>
<p>They fear that the legal “sex change” may lead their daughter to also attempt a physical sex change, including puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries, according to ADF International. The parents also assert that their daughter’s mental and physical well-being is in danger while she continues to live in a government youth shelter.</p>
<p>The Swiss Federal Supreme Court&#8217;s decision means that the parents must facilitate their daughter&#8217;s sex change or face possible criminal charges, ADF International said.</p>
<p>“The situation complained of cannot therefore be remedied by interpretation,&#8221; the court said in its decision, according to the legal group. &#8220;Nor can it be concluded that there is a loophole per se that would have to be filled by the courts. It would therefore be up to the federal legislature, if necessary, to amend the system as it currently stands under the Act, from which the Federal Court cannot derogate, since it is not its role to interfere in matters that are the responsibility of the federal legislature. It follows that the complaint must be dismissed.”</p>
<p>The case has received worldwide attention on social media, particularly on &#8220;X,&#8221; where Elon Musk weighed in.</p>
<p>“This is insane,&#8221; Musk <a href="https://adfinternational.org/news/elon-musk-reaction-daughter-separated-switzerland">wrote</a>. &#8220;This suicidal mind virus is spreading throughout Western Civilization.&#8221;</p>
<p>“At every juncture, these loving parents have sought to act in the best interests of their daughter, as is their right and obligation under international law,&#8221; said Dr. Felix Böllmann, Director of European Advocacy for ADF International, in a statement to The Daily Wire.  “The court’s decision to dismiss their appeal is an intolerable violation of their rights. It has, in effect, mandated a legal ‘transition’ for the daughter against her parents’ wishes.&#8221;</p>
<p>“Not only is this an intervention without any evidential basis of psychological benefit, but it also could pave the way for potentially irreversible physical interventions down the line,&#8221; he added.</p>
