on a disney exec zoom call
everyone was bragging about their trans kids
one mom said her child was assigned male at birth
but identifies as a female
but expresses himself as a male
he doesnt have to do a thing and
she gets to brag about her trans child
Step 2. Understand that a 17-year-old girl is NOT a rational human being, she’s an unexploded bomb that could go off with the slightest jar, and that “gender reassignment therapy” is EXACTLY like suicide in that it’s a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Daughter needs to get into serious therapy to figure out WHY she’s so unhappy with being a woman, and family therapy would probably help, too.
I would not accept a tranny kid. To do so would be accepting non reality.
The MOTHER is the one who is confused????
The liberal “science” is, that they can change the XX chromosome pair and the XY chromosomes . . . by wishful thinking.
When, the science is, that they are not really “coming out,” but are instead, projecting.
Liberals are projection artists - what they project “is real,” they assert; and “something must be done about it.”
Obsessive, compulsive, anxiety, disorder, and self-destruction. That, they “think” is “normal” as long as they have conservative guardrails that keep them going.
Liberals are usually trying to get rid of the guardrails, and they blame the guardrails, but when the guardrails are gone, they get:
- Detroit, MI
- Chicago, IL
- Portland, OR
- San Francisco, CA
- Baltimore, MD
- Philadelphia, PA
- New York, NY
Open borders - no guardrails.
If one of my children did that and I had the means to do it I’d immediately pack up the whole family and move as far away as I could get. Something or someone in the local area is influencing this nuttery and the daughter needs to be gotten out of that environment as soon as possible to try and get her head screwed on right. It’s no different than having a child that’s dabbling with drugs and hanging out with a bunch of druggie losers, yank them out of it ASAP and get them into a better environment.
FTA: .... she’s always enjoyed doing girly things with me, like shopping and manicures and Real Housewives binges.::

Gee, encouraging your daughter to watch such trash programming is not a good idea. I wonder what other garbage she has watched that has twisted her thinking.
Here is a good parental response:
Don’t know if it’s for real, but some FReeper posted a story about a father responding to this garbage by claiming he is now a woman. Supposedly, he showed up at her high school dressed as a woman, and she was “cured.”
I would never send my kids to a pagan temple to be educated.
No one is transgender. Teens look at teen magazines and develop a negative self image, as is the intention of the magazines. They stupidly think they would be happy “as” the other sex.
Ask her about all the things she was sure about as recently as a year or two ago. Pretend if she could have made irreversible decisions back then about her favorite music bands, or favorite friends, or favorite social media influencer or whatever. Think about how many times she's changed her minds over what's best or most fun or whatever in the past two years. Isn't she glad she didn't decide back then to forever lock in to those things being the only one she watched/listened to for the rest of her life? How restrictive would her life be like today if back then she decided her future (today) to be what she thought was important then?
Then explain that's what this decision is. Taking the hormonal "treatments" and telling everybody she knows that she's male would be impossible to undo when she later changes her mind -- unlike the countless other times she has changed her mind just about everything else important to her. And nobody she's trying to impress today cares about her enough to have made sacrifices for her. She can't count on them anyway. The only ones she can count on are the ones who have made sacrifices for her. And that's the Lord and family. Those are the only ones worth trying to impress. Those are the only ones who aren't trying to manipulate. The others are trying to manipulate her for their own entertainment regardless of the consequences to her life.
The letter was not written by anybody other than “Jane” and her staff. Its purpose is to tell us what to think and what not to think.
“Okay Freepers what would you all do if it was your kid or grandkid? More so only child?”
Exorcism, maybe?
Yeah. Probably exorcism.
Disown them, until they come to their senses.
i would not let them get any surgery until they are adults.
I would not insist people call them by whatever name they picked either.
I’d find a really damn good therapist who is known to deal with this sort of thing for starters, and I mean a therapist, not a psyciatrist. Therapists who won’t affirm kids do exist, even if they’re hard to find. Even if it has to be done by a video appointment, I’d do it.
Firstly, I’d refuse to do/pay for any affirming therapies, but with a problem like this, if you cut a kid off from their social circle cold turkey or outright attack, you create more animosity and thus distance. It has to be handled slowly.
I’d surely start chopping down screen time and creating more family time, asking lots of questions without trying to be condescending (difficult, at least for me) and replying with what I know, offering books and videos of detransitioners in particular if I start seeing concern. I guarantee this kid doesn’t know what they will go through if they try to transition.
Lastly, I’d tell them that I’ll always love them, but that I will never lie to them by telling them that they can become the opposite sex just by will and medical intervention. Your DNA doesn’t lie. I won’t either.
She is a girl. It was decided before she was born. Tell her she can dress up like Peter Pan at Halloween. Biologic sex is not appealable.
She cannot be a boy or a cow or a tomato or Napoleon. Any of those objectives are a fool’s errand.
Not accepting the stark realities of life is a recipe for endless misery.
Her only hope for any happiness is to accept what cannot be changed and work on the many wrong things which can be changed.
I would tell them in no uncertain terms that they’re being influenced by culture and current beliefs. I would say give it ten years, act like the gender you really are sexually and see what happens.
Love her and forget HIM.
NOT To be cruel but let ITlive it’s life and you live yours.
“I just don’t know what to do.”
................................
Tell HER you love HER. That God doesn’t make mistakes, male and female He made us. Then get her good Christian counseling. Be prepared to go to jail over it. Pray and count on God.
Move to another country. Lock, stock and daughter.
Find a community where trans is still considered very weird.
Then have bigger problems. If you have to, make some up.
Get the daughter engaged in solving these problems.
Help her find new friends.
Etc.
Main thing, though, is get her a world away from where she is now.
Yes, it’s horribly expensive and life-altering. So is trans surgery. But moving away is reversible, once she comes to her senses.
