Gender Transition problems

Research On Children ‘Growing Out’ Of Gender Dysphoria Adds Layer Of Complexity To Transgender Care
Although research shows that up to 94 percent of children will "grow out" of their transgender identity, advocates say that those studies were flawed in the first place and shouldn't dictate how doctors care for young children who want to socially transition.

This should be enough, for anyone that believes children should be transitioned young.

94% seems high, as I have seen stats as low as 70% But even if it were 50%, wouldn't
that make you think about the ramifications?

I do not favor transitioning children young. I couldn't set an exact age, but it would be in the later teens.

That said, the fact that we're having this conversation says that we agree transgender is a real thing, and there are some people who are better off transitioning when they're old enough.

@ElwoodBlues Yes, that is fine. When they are old enough to make all their own decisions.

The problem is that it seems many kids now days, do not really grow up as fast as in the past.

Many do, but many don't. I wanted to go in the military after I graduated HS, but I was 17.
My parents had to sign for me, but I was able to make the decision.

You do not favor? Since when did the US Constitution empower you to mess around with the human body?
