If a “good parent” now encourages their confused child’s self-mutilation, what else qualifies as good parenting in our depraved brave new world? Should good parents offer their kids a pack of Marlboros? A pint of 151 rum? Urge them to take the Tide Pod challenge and go play in the street? Let them do whatever they want, because “all the other kids are doing it?”
If children can demand, without parental knowledge, to be chemically and physically altered, they can drive a car, smoke cigarettes, drink alcohol, get married, and vote. If this keeps up, they will run for President.
