Study: Transgender children allowed to live openly fare well
CHICAGO (AP) via QCOnline ^ | February 26, 2016 | CHICAGO (AP)

In second grade, the family agreed to let Daniel legally change his name and at the boy's request, his school agreed to go along with the change, even letting Daniel use the boy's bathroom.

"He is very well-adjusted" but still feels stress because he knows not everyone is so accepting, Heumann said.

Daniel "was very anxious before coming out at school," but refused the option of keeping the secret, Heumann recalled.

"He looked at me and said, 'Dad, I can't. It's harder to live a lie and not as I am truly than to deal with this anxiety right now.'"

The parents weren't randomly selected and Olson acknowledged that parents of kids who aren't well-adjusted may have opted not to take part.

Yeah, sounds like a fair and balanced study. /s

He/she is not well adjusted and the stress is from not accepting his/her sex.

Agreed. It is far too early and the sample is far too small for this to be a valid, representative, scientific study. That means it is nothing but progressive propaganda, masquerading as science, as it so often does.

That is because we all are forced by law, with severe punishments, to play along with the delusion. It is sick.

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. If you repeat a lie long enough, it becomes truth.
- Joseph Goebbels

That statement applies both to the abusive parents who indoctrinated this little girl into mental illness and to the “trans”-activists who have created this latest way of living in your own reality TV world.

Mental illness enabled rather than treated.

Ironically, they don’t consider the massive doses of hormones or surgery to make the body suit the delusion harm.

"He looked at me and said, 'Dad, I can't. It's harder to live a lie and not as I am truly than to deal with this anxiety right now.'"

He, a six year old, went on to say: "While it is verifiable that I will endure significant social outcasting, and undergo a hail of vitriol, I must stand to my character. I must -- Nay, I *SHALL* -- soldier through the sociatal shunning and become the better for it. For it was Plato who wrote, in "Laches", that courage is a certain perserverance of the soul."

Totally correct. Tomboy girls, and sissy boys, have always been with us. It is a valid way of being a child. A lot of women have childhood pics of themselves, and like to tease visitors - can you see the girl in that pic? No ... there appears to be several little boys, including one scowling, short-haired figure, who in fact was a girl hanging out with her brothers. These children spend years utterly indifferent to “girl stuff” or “boy stuff”, then suddenly change as teenagers, and drop their childlike ways.

Plenty of former tomboys are now wives and mothers. They were never really boys. Likewise, I can remember a boy, at school, who used to hang out with us girls. He liked to try on make up, he joined the girls prayer group and prayed the rosary (would not hear of being an altar boy), and developed an obsessive interest in knitting, fabrics and sewing. As you can imagine, he got hell from some of his male peers. But he avoided them, and we liked him. All this practice in getting on with girls stood him in good stead in later years, when he grew up to be quite a philanderer.

It is awful to consider that such children, now, would be seen as transgender, and steered into a medical nightmare.

Overall I find you base and an irritant, like sand in my swimsuit after a day at the beach.

However, your comment was pure gold and my disdain has been temporarily weakened, similar to the brain-blood barrier after ingesting foods containing myrcine, like mango.

Yes, that is exactly what he said.
