Hope this is not too political or inflammatory. I trust the mods to remove it if so.

There is definite abuse of trans kids here (not by the parents). Enough said.

Not only child abuse by the state

Patricia Marie Allen's picture

Sounds as if there's a good bit of parental abuse as well. Is the state also going to investigate the pediatrician, the endocrinologist and the two therapists? After all, they have prescribed the blockers and testosterone. Obviously the two therapists are encouraging the child.

Where does this nonsense end? With the kind of thinking that going on around this, anyone associated with the family is at risk. What about the pharmacy that sells the prescriptions? What about the store that sells the child gender appropriate clothing? And the hair cut? Who's responsible for that? My, my, what a collaboration of child abusers.

Ouch! I just bit my tongue from having it in my cheek during that last.

I'm glad the parents are standing up to this and in court. It's time the legal question was laid to rest and things like this left to medical professionals who don't react with knee jerk answers to problems that don't exist.

The law is stacked against the parents

Right the way to the SCOTUS (6:3 in favour of members of the Federalist Society).

When is the current TX AG going to face trial? He was indicted years ago. The US legal system is nowhere near just. Just how injust it is plays out in almost every state on a daily basis.

I had played with a story about a guy using the name Harry Tubman who helps women needing an abortion and trans folk escape from Texas and Florida in the near dystopian future. I dropped it as being unnecessarily nasty about those states. I hope it stays that way!

News Article

In short, the Texas DFPS (Department of Family and Protective Services) went and interviewed a 13-year old trans-boy in regards to alleged 'child abuse' per Gov Greg Abott's instructions to investigate families for providing gender affirming care to their children.

This case was done at school without trying to contact the parents at all beforehand. The 'interview' apparently lasted nearly an hour and included a lot of very personal questions about the boy's diagnosis and how he felt about such. It caused the boy enough emotional trauma that he had a not so mini-meltdown and was not able to return to classes for the rest of the day and possibly a few more days after.

The investigator used a legal loophole in the Texas state laws to get to the boy while he was in school and not around his parents. It is now being fought over in the courts.

It's because you are trying to pull data from an ISP who has a filter which won't allow certain nations to look at their data.
OR..., your own ISP is throttling your overseas searches and connections.
Cheer up love, England does that to me a bunch. Almost any ISP I try to link into located in England shuts me out. There are work arounds if one wishes.
