That is a lack of parental responsibility. Nothing can prevent you or any other parent from beginning a respectful dialogue, based on questions of logic. Why are children being driven to personal dysmorphic personality types? Trans and androgyny are old as history- ancient Greece and Italy had these issues, so we are informed by the past- this is not a new problem. So, what caused the shift to boys ‘feeling like girls inside,’ and why would parents not seek outside guidance when their child is being influenced by societal pressures that are so out of sync with the parent’s own values? In other words, who the heck is raising these kids- society and its sick, twisted values, or the parents and their love, their values, and with compassion? The choice is up to the parents- not society, not the child’s peer group, not the schools, not some wackadoo psychobabble coming from whatever school counselor, online ‘psychologist’ or other unqualified source. If it were me, I would seek outside guidance from a retired physician, maybe a military doctor, whose values more closely match sensible, conservative values-based choices, and I would disregard the social ‘cues’ and ‘influencers’ and so forth. The garbage 🗑️ can is where most ‘modern ideas’ of morality belong. Too many choices means too many problems. I would tell my children, ‘You can become anything your mind, talents, and willpower can achieve- so, why not shoot for the stars of normalcy, cohesive values, and a conservative viewpoint while you are young and suggestible. When age and experience have seasoned you a while, you can always make different choices at that time.’
