It seems to be commonly accepted that parents force transgenderization on their children. Anyone who believes that has no idea of how difficult it is to raise a transgender child. No parent wants a transgender child. These children become outcasts before they can read and write. With no friends and feeling they belong nowhere, they often become candidates for suicide before they reach puberty.
People that foster the belief that transgenderization is learned not genetic are the same people who believe homosexuality is a learned behavior or a choice. Believing it is not genetic, then it must be a sin and punished accordingly. The same thing happen with schizophrenia and bi-polar disorder children in early 20th century before we understood that it was disease and not a choice nor bad parenting.
I disagree with this but it was well presented. I've never heard of anyone claiming that parents force transgenderism on children, so it's a bit of a strawman.
What happens is that if a child expresses the kind of gender confusion that many children go through at one time or another. Children have always struggled with their feelings about gender and sexuality. The difference between now and when I grew up, for example, is that now children are encouraged to talk about these feeling to school officials, rather than their own parents.
If a child expresses gender confusion, they are often placed into the transgederization pipeline, through referrals to outside counsellors who then refer them to gender clinics which exist for the sole purpose of profiting by convincing parents to agree to the expensive treatments they provide. Since Obamacare requires these treatments to be covered, there is little out of pocket expense to slow the parents down.
Far from the parents enforcing their will, if at any step in the process described above, a parent balks or even questions the need for such drastic action based on an expression of confusion by a child, that parent may be threatened with state action, and in some states, actually have action taken aagainst them, to include removal of a child due to parental "abuse."
We're being sold a bill of goods. Gender confusion is best "treated" with parent-child talks, or talks with other trusted adults, who are
not connected to or associated with for-profit gender clinics.
This emperor has no clothes, and parents may lose their children if they say so.
That's why people such as myself, whose children are mercifully grown, and not subject to this kind of manipulation need to speak out.
