Who decides when a 14 y.o. wants to change gender? The child, the hospital, the battling parents?

The 14 year old does, after 4 years and moving out of the house and paying their own way.

If they are welcome to come home for the holidays is up for the parents to decide.

Mom and Dad are fighting and using the poor girl as a weapon against each other. It has probably been going on for a long time.

She wants to be someone, anyone else.

A natural desire but she would be better served if someone put a gag on both her parents.

18, you can get drafted or go full Klinger.

But 21 years is a good age too, honestly I wish there was one definite cut off age, pardon the pun for adulthood.

This tranny crap is 100% the result of liberals making it a cool fad to kids. There is no way middle schools went from having zero of them to over a dozen in just a few years time without it being seen as trendy.

can a 14 year old buy cigarettes, hard liqueur, get married, buy beer, fight in the army? No? Then why the hell should they be allowed to ‘decide’ that they want to mutilate their bodies? IF they are too young to fight, drink, smoke, get married etc- then they are too young to decide that they want to permanently change their gender

When he or she is 18 years old and not confused by societal pressures. Actually 21 years old would be better.

Max has always preferred hanging around boys. He never played with female gender-stereotypical toys, such as dolls.

Oh, for crying out loud, liberals today are so closedminded. You have to play with dolls to be a girl? You have to want to hang out with other girls to be a girl? Otherwise, you must be a boy?

What happened to "a woman can do anything a man can do?"

30-40 years ago, if a girl hung out with boys, as most of my friends and I liked to do (because boys were adventurous and fun), that didn't mean she was a boy on the inside.

Here's what really happened to this poor girl. At a young age, she came across a youtube video that influenced her strongly, just as a book or something else can influence a child strongly:

. . . in Grade 7 when he stumbled across a video on YouTube. Titled “Boy,” the Danish short film documents the struggles between Emilie, a transgender boy, and his mother. . . . After watching the film, Max stood in front of the mirror — just as Emilie does in the film — and cut his hair, . . .

None of the above. You make the kid grow up to be an adult first.

Doesn’t the father get to have a say in the matter at all?

Sadly, probably not.

I will say this, that our liberal overlords utilize a twisted logic to stay at the top of the global dominance hierarchy. They’ve got so many people arguing and wringing their hands over what should be self evident and fundamental truths, that they ensure they may never be challenged.

It’s simple divide and conquer. You don’t allow people to share common ground so you strip them of their common ground like their sexual identity. They keep power by continuing to subdivide human beings, practicing reductionism on the human psyche.
