But that's the problem with today. Everybody just has to be upset about something somebody else does or says, or have an opinion about something that has literally nothing to do with them because they so badly want to be apart of other people's business.

And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying little Joey should get his stuff cut off at 16, or 14 (or younger) because he thinks he's a girl, but if that's what him and his parents decide then so be it. It's their decision, not yours or anybody else's, no matter how much you wish it was.

Now if this hospital, or any others are doing these surgeries etc. on kids without their parents signing off on it, that's a completely different story.

It's child abuse by the parents. The kid can't legally make any decisions and it's usually not the kids making these decisions. They have been groomed by either the parents or someone else to make them feel they have to change their body.

Having major surgery and sterilizing yourself when you haven't even become an adult is stupid. You want to be a boy, then dress like one, act like one, whatever but all that is reversible.

This is nothing more than assumptions on your part because you disagree with it. You have absolutely no clue about any of their situations, or thoughts. Only what you think/want them to be to fit your narrative. Again, you're trying to think you should decide what's right for somebody else, when it doesn't effect you at all in any way.

Sure there's bad parents and grooming like that does take place, but that can be said for a lot of things. Is it ok that little Joey wants to be a girl, but is afraid to show it because his bigot parents are against it and he knows he'll be an outcast from the bigot family if he acts on it? Nope, but that's a reality that many people have to deal with. Also, there's countless amounts of people who have had a "gender" change because they've always identified/thought of themselves more as a girl, or boy at a young age, even without this so called grooming or influence.

Again, I agree that people that young shouldn't be having those kind of major procedures being done on them, but in this day and age of technology, there's a lot of info out there and kids really aren't as dumb as us adults make them out to be. Yea they aren't seasoned and have the life experience/knowledge as a 35+ year old would have at 12. But today's 12 year old isn't the same as a 12 year old in 1970. Now if parents are forcing their kids into these procedures, that's a different story, but that's just speculation/assumption at this point.

As I said above, it all comes back to... Worry about your damn selves. Stop trying to push what you think/believe is right on other people. I know you so badly want everybody to fall in line with your own thoughts/beliefs, but that's not how it works. The sooner people realize this, the better. Sad thing is this country is so [BLEEP] because of politics/the divide that we're all doomed no matter what. Ya'll are just sheep towing the line and that's exactly what the "MAN" wants. It really is sad.

Edit: And this isn't directed towards any of you especially, I'm just talking more so as a whole for everybody.
