As a consequence, have a person’s kids taken away? Or should there be any consequences?

****PLEASE READ

I’m straightforward and don’t want to give any ‘fluff’ So I don’t know how else to ask this question without it sounding rage baity.

This isn’t a gotcha or trap to argue with anyone I feel and believe I can learn something of value from people I disagree with. It is interesting to know why you disagree and what reasons make you feel x y and z about things.

I’m here to listen, not judge or throw around name calling or fight with you. You feel the way you do for whatever reason, and I want to know a little more about why you do and that is it.

I would like for everyone to feel confident voicing how they feel about this question. I don’t care if I disagree with you. Fighting with you is not how I’d like to spend my evening. I’m sure you don’t either.

I might ask follow ups like, “Why is it that you feel that way?” Or “can you tell me a little bit more” so I can understand your point of view better. And that’s it.

If that feels too much or you don’t want to. Totally fine. Just ignore my comment to you.

Thanks for your time.

    I don’t think children should be able to decide to transition when they are at an age where their brain is not even close to developed. At a later age if they still feel the same way I don’t disagree with it, but when they are children I don’t think it should be an option for them.

      That’s not what transition means for children. Children don’t access hormonal or surgical transition. The only medical transition they can access is puberty blockers that let them pause puberty for exactly the reason you’re asking for, which is to let them reach an age where they can make choices about their future
