Why are conservatives obsessed with gender transition surgery for minors when it's an insignificant issue?

There are about 40 million adolescents in the U.S. Here’s what they deal with:

Anxiety: 12,000,000 (30%)

Obesity: 6,800,000 (17%)

Sexually Victimized: 6,400,000 (16%)

Severe Major Depression: 6,000,000 (15%)

Living in Poverty: 5,200,000 (13%)

Substance Abuse: 2,000,000 (5%)

Suicide: 5,000/yr (.01%)

Cancer Diagnosis: 5500 (.013%)

Killed by Firearms: 5000 (.01%)

Incarcerated: 2500 (.006%)

Have Gender Transition Surgery: 300 (.00075%)

But please, explain how conservatives care so much about children that they focus on the issue that affects the smallest number of them.
