Lawmakers say the Medi-Cal program needs $10 million to pay for gender-affirming care for minors after the Trump administration cut funding. Parents of transgender children say the state should have prepared sooner to prevent gaps in care.

Better parenting would’ve solved the problem.
Gender affirming care=mutilation.
Women’s healthcare=abortion.
I read about this somewhere…hmmmm…where was it…
Oh yeah, Isaiah 5:20.
If they think having their heath care cut off is bad, imagine how much worse it is to have your genitals cut off.
These parents. What they want to cut off is worse.
Mutilation is correct. Out of the ashes it’s gonna be XX or XY.
“Better parenting would’ve solved the problem.”
So would putting them in JAIL.

How do you explain the ‘transitioning’ of kids with parents that did a good job and did their very best? It’s easy. The ghouls in schools have more access to the kids. Think about it. The kids are out of reach of the parents during the day, while the parents work. The parents have less time with the kids than the indoctrinating leftists have. Even the best parents have lost control of the situation. And not everyone is in a position to be able to homeschool. They shouldn’t have to, either.
When I went to public school, they actually did teach English, math, science, etc. and no indoctrination. Public schools did what they were supposed to do, only. We need to get back to that and start penalizing any teacher or administrator that deviates from that model of education.
The change has to come from the top. Eliminate the ability of these cretins to do what they’re doing to the kids. Make it illegal to try to “transition” or to change ANY kid in public school in any way. It’s not their job to do anything but teach the standard courses to the kids. But the “it takes a village” radical leftists (commies) seek to take over that job in order to ‘fundamentally transform’ America. Why are we letting them?
these people are mentaly ill. They need psychiatrist.
Total Number of Psychiatrists According to industry workforce and Statista data, populous states lead in raw numbers:California =7700
New York=7200
That explains a lot.
Hmmm...looks like little “Mary” will have to go through life with an Adams apple and 5 o’clock shadow.
Having “cut off” in the headline?
Pay for it yourself you ghouls.
“Parents of transgender children ...”
So wonderful that our US tax dollars and debt have been funding medical malpractice and child abuse. The “parents” might try getting “jobs” and paying for medical care themselves instead of leeching off the public. The journalist’s use of “parents” is dubious. How many “dads” in intact families are present in the lives of proto-tranny children? I have the impression that gender issues in children are concentrated in households headed by radical womyn, who groom children into trannyism after driving away the sperm donors. Isn’t that how they qualify for MediCal?
You are absolutely correct. Except there is an addition. XX. Xy. And Insane!!!
How us this even a discussion?
Being that there is no such thing as trans-gender, I don’t see the problem.
This would appear to be gender denying care, not gender affirming care.
Substitute “fake” for “trans” in all these stories, and it begins to make more sense.
“Parents of transgender children say the state should have prepared sooner to prevent gaps in care.”
At least they are getting the funding and control of health care back into the states as that is part of the Constitution.
Tenth Amendment: Powers not given to the federal government belong to the states. States hold traditional “police powers” to protect public health, safety, and local medical licensing. So in this case, the feds are not responsible for funding and/or overseeing the issue.

These kids are steeped into the “gender switching or gender fluidity is cool” genre - from all sides, media, schools, Hollywood, TV - and more. Kids are very open to suggestions at such a young age.
Parents are often told by “therapists” (as many report) that you can either have a dead boy or an alive transitioned girl, i.e. the child is likely to commit suicide unless allowed to transition. Many parents absolutely believed the “experts” on this.
Bad enough what the puberty blocking hormones do to a young, still forming brain, but surgery will permanently make them infertile and mutilated. There is no way a child can make that decision for themselves - there is a good reason children can’t own property, enter into contracts, vote or make such decisions on their own - but it’s A-OK to mutilate themselves permanently.
I don't know. The psychiatrists pushed this crap that homosexuality is normal and in many left-wing states, it's illegal for psychiatrists to help homosexuals become normal.
