13-Year-Old Girl Commits Suicide After Parents Let Her Live as Boy

TRUSSVILLE, Ala. (ChurchMilitant.com) - A 13-year-old suffering from gender dysphoria took her life in late May after her parents, Erin and Matt Georgia, allowed her to identify and present herself as a boy. Jane Marie Georgia was allowed to begin her "transition" in sixth grade, changing her name to "Jay Griffin."

The parents found their daughter dead in her bedroom on Thursday, May 25. In the months leading up to her death, she had been placed on medications for anxiety and depression.

A 2016 study by the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center said that the suicide attempt rate among transgender youth is 30 percent.

Jane’s mother Erin said, "Don't get me wrong, I mourned the loss of a daughter," referring to Jane's so-called transition, "but then I realized that I'd been praying for a son my whole life. God answered that prayer, in just a different way."

Georgia also said the family went to church together in search of a "safe space," but that even "welcoming" churches did not meet the unexplained criteria of being safe. "As Jay was going through this journey, he would go to church with us. The church was welcoming, but there was no safe space," she continued.

"Me and Jay would go to different churches to find places that were safe for us," she said. "I say 'us' because I often feel like an outsider because I just love everybody, and that's kind of hard in a Christian Bible Belt state."

Georgia went on to imply that Trump's election may have had something to do with her daughter's difficulties: "It's probably been the roughest since the (presidential) elections." She thinks this is "because hate crimes have increased by 20 percent since the election and people feel more validated to be more discriminatory.''

Last year the American College of Pediatricians put out a statement that said in plain words, "Conditioning children into believing a lifetime of chemical and surgical impersonation of the opposite sex is normal and healthful is child abuse."

The pediatric organization went on to explain that children's feelings about their identity do not indicate that they are truly whatever sex they claim to belong to. "No one is born with an awareness of themselves as male or female," the group stated. "This awareness develops over time and, like all developmental processes, may be derailed by a child's subjective perceptions, relationships and adverse experiences from infancy forward."

Church Militant recently reported on a soon-to-be released documentary on ex-transgenders who found healing. They reveal to the public the face of transgender regret, especially following surgery. The film, titled TranZformed: Finding Peace With Your God-Given Gender, was produced by David Kyle Foster, who told Church Militant that the film emphasizes the humanity of people trapped in transgenderism.

"The message of the film is that people are very broken; they need lots of help," he said. "And the last kind of help they should be getting is not what they're getting."

Best post of the day. Right on, but truth blindness is a terminal leftist disease.

It wasn't and isn't unusual for pre-adolescent girls to want to be boys. The arcane term was "Tom Boy" and such young ladies were accepted as "one of the guys" and treated as such until puberty kicked in and their buddies started noticing changes which altered the whole dynamic. One of my daughters was one and she's now engaged to be married to a former Marine MP (male, I must add).

We weren't confused about this. We just let it flow. These parents were stupid and naive enough to trust in the mumbo jumbo of today's mental "health" profession. If anyone should be hanged like Spartacus' troops lined the Appian Way it's those bastards with their degrees in pseudo-psychology. They're killing and otherwise causing misery for tens of thousands of kids.

I found that 30% to be incredible. Perhaps allowing and helping these confused children to “transgender” is NOT in their best interests, psychologically. JMHO.

This woman is NUTS - and the nut didn’t fall far from the tree. Wow. Just, WOW!

They always talk about a “safe place”, but the only safe place is within yourself.

A rather cute little girl. Too bad she had a nut for mother.

Momma has way too many tattoos. I always wonder about people, especially women, who feel the need to tat up.

My parents really did want a boy, and though I preferred hanging out with boys when I was a kid because they did more fun stuff, and I was quite capable of doing things boys did, I never once thought of being anything other than the female I was born as, and neither did my parents. Thank God.

Unreal.

“Conditioning children into believing a lifetime of chemical and surgical impersonation of the opposite sex is normal and healthful is child abuse.”

This has got to stop.

Now up in Canuckistan, children can be taken away from their parents if they don’t give in to their child’s delusions and emotional manipulations. “WHY WON’T YOU ACCEPT ME THE WAY I AM!”

A common cry from kids going back to Cain and Abel, I think.

Except, for gender dysphoria suffers, the REAL question is, “Why don’t YOU accept you the way you are?

Think your kid is mentally ill and you don’t accept that he or she wants to “transition” into something they weren’t born as and can never be? Won’t allow the family physician to prescribe hormones or take them to the surgeon for consultation?

Buh-bye. Wards of the state. The LGBT crowd - homoleftists - are fulfilling the Marx’s dream of state as parent, state as family.

You HAVE no “parental rights.”

The state is all.

“Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds.”

So, can a 55 year old identify as a 15 year old boy, and that’s why he has sex with 15 year old girls?

It’s coming and that’s how they are gonna do it.

Age dismorphia or something.

Her mental abuse probably killed her daughter, and she blames Donald Trump.

Pure, distilled evil.

This is a compelling illustration of why the transgender disorder is really based on the unmet pathological needs of the parent.

I think you misread.

The American College of Pediatricians is saying that it is child abuse to teach your kids that it is normal and healthy to want to turn their bodies and minds into the opposite sex. Through science, or whatever.

No, He didn't. Your carnal mind rebelled against God and corrupted your own child for your own selfish desires.

We all know the truth here. This was a person with a mental illness. Transgender people suffer from depression in disproportionately high rates, and commit suicide in disproportionately high rates. They are not mentally stable.

And as this case tragically demonstrates, humoring their delusion does nothing to treat or fix their real issues. They are suffering, they need help, and our society would rather use them as tokens for liberal virtue signaling then actually do something to help them.

Hmm, I wonder how the parents voted? And how they all stood politically?
