The 17-year-old identifies as a boy.

17 is getting close to legal adulthood, but there's a reason a 17 year old is still considered a minor.

This girl can do whatever she pleases to herself in a year, when she is a legal adult. Until then, she cannot make such decisions for herself, and anyone trying to aid her in such actions in defiance of her parents wishes should probably be brought up on charges.

children are permitted to make these changes without parental consent for a while.

Just like abortion, a teacher can step in and help the child receive medical intervention.

and just like abortion, planned parent hood provides the hormones.

Could be she wants this to come under her parent’s insurance if it is covered. Maybe coverage ends if she is 18 and not in school.

“whatever she pleases to herself in a year, when she is a legal adult.”
Wait, I thought they were “children” until they turned 27 so they could stay on the parents insurance. Remember that obummer cluster?
