Thankyou for this well reasoned and insightful piece of writing . People need to wake up. History will look back on this medicalisation of young peoples search for identity as child abuse . That a small group of activists are now influencing the medical profession and government agencies beggars belief . This makes me think of the Rotherham child abuse scandal in the uk , where social services and the police were afraid to get involved for fear of being called racist . You are keeping your daughter safe, whilst at the same time dealing with some incredibly difficult life circumstances by the sounds of it. I wish you and your daughter well. Thankyou again for this article.
