“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

SWANK LAW No. 097: I Will Always Stand Up for My Children — and Lose Anyone I Need to Lose

SWANK LAW No. 097: I Will Always Stand Up for My Children — and Lose Anyone I Need to Lose

A Doctrine of Unshakable Loyalty and Non-Negotiable Alignment

At SWANK, we do not flinch when asked to choose between our children and those who threaten their peace — we don’t even blink.

We will lose friends.

We will lose family.

We will lose doctors, teachers, social workers, partners, communities, and bloodlines.

And we will never call that a loss.

Because our loyalty is not performative.

Our alignment is not conditional.

And our love is not a negotiation between convenience and courage.

We do not stand “with our children” when it is polite.

We stand with them when it is dangerous, inconvenient, socially punished, and misunderstood.

We stand with them when it costs us everything — and we pay in full.

At SWANK, we do not explain our protection.

We do not apologise for our refusal to tolerate harm.

We do not ask permission to prioritize our children’s reality over someone else’s comfort.

We know what we are:

Unshakeable. Aligned. Untouchable.

And if your presence requires us to abandon our children’s truth?

You were never meant to stay.
