(Suzie Homemaker)
The mental manipulation and gaslighting is so abusive and demented. I don’t know what happened to parents who do this, but it’s a mental health crisis for more than the children caught up in this net. These parents are deranged and ideologically captured by a lie.

I understand that it can be challenging to question expert advice, especially when it comes from professionals we’re expected to trust. [...] The responsibility rests solely with us as parents to advocate for our children’s well-being. And those parents who have failed to do so, those who offer “I was just following the experts” as an excuse for their abdication of this great moral responsibility will find that history has proven such to be inexcusable, unforgivable.

…especially when the experts tell you your child will definitely kill himself if you don’t accommodate his need to change his “gender.” Proof, anyone? I thought not.

There’s nothing more evil and effective than the suicide myth.

(Suzie Homemaker)
I couldn’t agree more. The suicide line is pure propaganda and gaslighting, nothing more than blatant fear-mongering, as the actual SCIENCE says the exact opposite. Kids are MORE likely to commit suicide when medically affirmed than not.

In deed, she has a powerful voice and message. And many more like her are beginning to rise and find their voices.

"Just following the experts" is way too close to "just following orders," and doesn't sit well with me.

(Suzie Homemaker)
Absolutely agree!

I think doctors and psychologists happened, along with documentaries like the one mentioned. We are taught to trust science, doctors, and psychologists. [...] Some know better and lied for personal gain. Others may think they are doing the right thing. I do also think this is tied to other cultural things that seem related to a certain extent, although less extreme. [...]
