Putting a kid on puberty blockers is not the same as putting them on Ritalin, though, truth be told, those types of drugs are overused. We should be tapering those drugs as well. However, to the subject at hand, you don't put kids on puberty blockers for anything that isn't life threatening. There are mental, social, and physical ramifications. Only non-thinkers like yourself buy into the "emotional" well-being excuse without considering all of the other potential fallout. This is liberal and progressive policies in a nutshell: change for the sake of change.

You don't stop a child's puberty at 12 to allow them to decide what gender they want to be at 18. That's [BLEEP] dumb. You drink the Kool-aid, bro.

Categorize it as emotional or physical or social or whatever, but the biggest concern is that these kids are killing themselves at high rates.  Suicide is even more permanent than surgery.  I think we owe it to ourselves to see if puberty blockers can lessen that rate.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
