Supreme Court allows Idaho to enforce its ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth

I'd tell them the truth.

It may bring about a little pouting, but they will get over it and move on.

It does work and pouting or not, they can learn and adapt with their imperfections.

We're becoming unique in our stupidity,

Not all of us, just liberal democrats.

In a sane country this would not even be a thing.....The loonies are running the show.

I'm not far off the mark either......Just look at your average "mental health professional", that claims some poor boy needs to have his pecker chopped off. Have you ever seen one that didn't have a screw loose themselves by just listening to them?

Then go down the chain into the medical community that sees the sexual mutilation of young kids as mere cash cows their whole lives.....Till they off themselves.

IMHO anyone that promotes gender mutilation of a minor or operates on same should be executed by the foulest means possible.....They should die very badly.

We punish child molesters but reward molesters with scalpels.

Kids lives are being destroyed.

Someone has to speak up, even if it's wasted breath.

For the kids, yes Duke.......~S~

They should die very badly.

Poor analogies. There are exceptions to those laws, when the minor is in the care of their parents. Parents can make these decisions with their doctors and their children.

You can’t let those parents make that kind of optional decision to destroy a child’s physical health. The child can still grow up without these procedures.

You wouldn’t support a law letting parents cut off limbs. Sex organs should be the same.

We don't let minors buy cigarettes. We don't let them consume alcohol.

We don't even let 20-year-olds buy cigarettes in Illinois anymore.

Children are not making the gender affirming decision on their own.
They are doing it in consultation with parents and medical professionals.
Puberty blockers are given to prevent irreversible sexual maturation to take place.

Once it has, transexual gender change results in the “freaks” that conservatives love to mock

Well, if the professionals are recommending harmful stuff, we have to go along!!

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Which is why they don’t jump in to gender affirming care right away
A child must assume the desired sex first by choosing a name and dressing and acting in the new sex. Their progress is evaluated by professionals and the next step is puberty blockers while they continue to evaluate.

It's nice that a child can get sterilized if they want.

I think it was Maher that said something like "Maybe your kid is just gay. Do we really need to break out the dick saw?"
