America’s strong-arming gender clinics REVEALED: Most parents of trans kids say they were ‘pressured’ into transitioning their child — even when it left them worse off

Parents are usually awe struck when confronted with a child with health problems. They want assurance and easy answers and hope the doctor can give them.

I’d give the parents a little slack.

I don’t have the exact data, just common sense.

These “transitioned” people just don’t thrive or live too long.

People who can’t stand up to this and go all in to protect their child should have been neutered before they could procreate.

Talking with my nephew I asked him if he would take a bullet to protect his kids. He said, hell yeah. I said, then you are a real parent. So what does that make these people???

I watched an old movie I first saw way back in 1954. The original THE LONE RANGER.
IN it the villain who is married and has a little daughter encourages her horse back riding, then calls her his son, and says to the hired men....”Treat them as a boy and they will grow up to be a boy!”

His wife was not happy about it.

So we were warned back in 1954 about today!

The psychologist and doctors who did this trans garbage should have the same done to them. Opposite of what they prefer of course…

For a thorough treatment of this issue with children and “transing,” Dr. Quentin Van Meter has a wonderful presentation from the sane, scientific point of view.

I remember 1968 and the murder of Bobby Kennedy. The media blamed TV shows, comic books, pulp books, toy guns, movies.

So the TV shows dumbed down to kiddie shows, toy guns disappeared, comic books changed their format for a while, pulp books changed their blood soaked covers.
But Movies got a pass as they said they would regulate themselves with a joke of a ratings system. GMRX! Then reshot scenes adding more blood, guts and sex to get the then coveted “R” and “X” ratings.

What was really frightening was certain people blamed masculine boys for violence and wanted to feminize them with medication.

To me it appears most of the problems in the US started at that moment.

In response to such pressure did these parents not think to use the two word phrase beginning with “f” and ending in “you”? Or the ever reliable “Over YOUR dead body”. The people pushing this need to be crushed. Or better yet, subjected to the surgery they’re advocating sans anaesthetic.

Possibly inherently weak, but . . .

. . . if the docs call in Child Protective Services, and they threaten to declare you unfit parents and take away not only the child in question, but ALL your children, and put them in foster homes (where they will encourage them all to have "transgender" surgery) -- plus charging you with child endangerment . . . so you lose your job, your home, and go to prison . . . .

Bet you'd feel "inherently weak" too . . . never underestimate the power of the government to coerce.

...and anyone with half a normal brain would see through the fog of insanity that would lead them to allow someone with DR. before their name to surgically alter their precious body.

...but no, their motives are so destructive, only in very rare circumstances are they able to escape the pressure cooker their parents, their peers or they themselves have placed themselves in.

What kind of parent can be “pressured” into destroying their child?

Righteous indignation must no longer exist in this nation.

It must be regarded as racism.

“These “transitioned” people just don’t thrive or live too long.”

Here’s the thing. Sexuality is important, but so are a dozen other things, job, relationships, family, interests, hobbies, a zillion things can give you joy. But if you are concentrated on just one thing, and it turns out you screwed that one thing up, well, life can’t be too good after that. The one “drag queen” I knew from one of my customers was the nastiest, most unhappy man I knew. And, he probably wasn’t transitioned as that wasn’t a “thing” at the time. Him and his buddies were just really a waste of flesh. I wouldn’t have spent a moment with him if I had a choice.

They’ll have an interstate warrant out in 3-2-1 (adding a count of fleeing to avoid prosecution).

Real parents would get their kids as far away from those groomers as possible.

Many of the very young trans kids threaten suicide unless they get their demand for the surgical and hormone transition. How are they getting that notion they can’t live with their natural birth sex?! Video games? Internet porn? Using the Ouija board? It is madness!!

where doctors allegedly told parents that they could either have a transgender child — or one that would commit suicide.

allegedly? no. this IS what they say.
