Conversion therapy is morally despicable and normally pressure on teens because their parents are close minded pricks. If my kid wanted to be white I'd tell him to listen to Nsync, dance very badly, and be rude to everyone he meets. No need to bleach skin white.
At what age though? When I was 16 I fell into the wrong crowd for a bit and my goal in life was to be a real life Scarface. Should be parents have let me decide to go ahead and pursue that dream?
I will concede that parents should have made her wait until she was 18 before allowing her to get hormone therapy.
This could open pandora's box. There are a multitude of medical procedures requiring parental consent for minors. By what standard should some of them be granted an exception?
Im a 6 year old chinese boy trapped in a white mans body. What are the real differences between white adult men and 6 year old chinese boys except for physiology? Do you really not understand how incredibly stupid that sounds? -,- And_it_is_your_business. For the last time, you're paying for it, its your business. When these people become unable to take care of themselves (which is bound to happen) you're the one who pays the bills. As long as we have a welfare state we have an obligation to control eachothers lives.
Hey, maybe next year the kid could join the football team and win MVP!! That would complete the progressive sexual confusion being taught to children by those who wish to provide radical-activist homosexuals with more young sexual converts.
OK that was a bad analogy but still. What age can a child really know if this is the what they really want? We can't let kids decide some things for themselves that's why they have parents. You were a teenager once, how do you think you would act if your parents gave you free reign to make your own choices? How many "phases" did you go through before you grew up? I knew plenty of girls in high school who went from straight to gay to bi and back again. And in regards to sexual orientation when does a child know they are in the wrong body? At what age?
I would work with them as long as they were competent and polite. Why are you being so hateful towards someone you say is suffering from mental illness?
Parents typically put the best interests of their children first. Who are you or anyone else to judge their decisions sans abuse? For all you know, 'Uncle Twinkle-Toes' has influenced their child unbeknownst to them. With regard to a kid wanting to be another color, stereotyping whites with such insults is just racist.
I think the child seems very happy , and i don't think we can really set an age . I think it's really a case by case basis . Some know they are gay at 5 , others take much longer .
