[–]GenderSpecial 27 insightful - 1 fun27 insightful - 0 fun28 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

The last sentence gets me:

While children dealing with gender identity are at increased risk for depression and suicide, there is not an indication for a psychiatric evaluation at this point.

Really?? A child decides they are a different gender and the only response is to unconditionally support their decision and not to put any effort into uncovering the underlying reason for the change? No, don’t see a psychiatrist, just start the medicalization asap!
