Sex Changes for Kids
Fox News ^ | 051908 | Hillary Viders and Joseph Abrams

Posted on 05/19/2008 10:34:46 AM PDT by mykroar

Boston’s Children’s Hospital bills itself as the hospital for children — and now it’s also the hospital for children who want a sex change, a procedure some critics are calling “barbaric.”

Dr. Norman Spack, a pediatric specialist at the hospital, has launched a clinic for transgendered kids — boys who feel like girls, girls who want to be boys — and he’s opening his doors to patients as young as 7.

Any parent who would allow their child to be operated on by this freak should have their child taken away from them and charges brought against them.

Sick. Sick. Sick.

I don’t undersand why this isn’t criminal. Under the law, are there special considerations for doctors?

Seven?

When I was seven I wanted to be a tiger. Glad my parents didn’t oblige.

I do not understand the whole transgender/transsexual idea, I admit I’m not with it in this whole area.

But isn’t it a bit extreme to do operations and hormone treatments and all that on children? At least with an adult who had come to the conclusion he’s in the wrong body, he’s fully grown and developed. These are children who aren’t even in puberty yet. This is criminal to do anything in this area with children.

Sorry but your attendance at the Fire Engine Pride Parade is manditory per President Obama. Ah, is there a reason you’re not applauding?

Where is the AMA and the various pediatric associations on this? This is beyond sickening. But not surprising for a city that consistently helps elect the likes of Teddy “Swimmer” Kennedy and John F’n Kerry.

I could understand this if the child was born a hermaphrodite. Some sort of surgery to finalize a given sex.

But, anything less than that is child abuse.

In Boston public schools are they still teaching elementary school kids the fine art of LESBIAN FISTING?

He's clearly motivated by greed and should lose his license to practice medicine - despicable!

It was the AMA who caved in to pressure from gay militant activists to remove homosexuality from the list of mental disorders in the DSM.

Why would they do anything now?

No amount of mutilation and grafting can change a person’s sex. A person’s sex is clearly shown in his/her genes.

And it’s sex, not gender.

Decadence (referred to as "sin" by God) knows no bounds.

The farther one sinks into degradation, the lower one is willing to go.

Witness: remember the 60's and the bikinis, now those full bras with panties that went from their waist down to the top of their thighs? Now, it's thongs, g-strings and pasties, worn even by young girls.

Lest you think I am a prude, remember when gays maintained all they desired was protection against "violence" against them? Job, housing, public displays in parks, etc. came next. Recognition of their relationships first, now not only full benefits of marriage but demands that schools may no longer use examples of "families" that use mother and father, husband and wife.

Now children MUST be informed of their "sexual choices" by schools and parents may NOT interfere.

Sex change operations on children - you bet.

We've never stood up against this descent unto Hell by trying to "get along" and be "tolerant." Now it will become a "constitutionally protected right" for children to "change their sex" -- oh and yes, if their parents cannot "pay" for their surgery, the public will be forced to pay under Hillary's, Obama's, McCain's "health-care plan."

I think it’s the price of gasoline, people are locked up, and have nothing else to do but sit home and watch the Jerry Springer show, and get these brilliant ideas. Lower gasoline prices and these sex change operations are history.

This is a disorder....SHAME on us (this country) if we allow them to butcher these children. As if abortion isn’t enough. God deliver us from this.

You really expect them to tell the truth of the matter? What this document doesn’t tell is the gay activists who invaded the annual meetings of the AMA demanding that they make the change in the diagnosis. The AMA caved instead of telling them where to get off at.

Look it up.

Ok so it was the APA. You could of just noted that instead of making a major issue of it.
