I agree. I support their rights to transition but I think more support needs to be given to children. It's a massive red flag when people (on the internet) try to tell you things about yourself you don't even know. Same goes for some of the sexual orientation subreddits. If you don't know your sexuality or whether or not you are transgender, no one else can tell you that you have to work that out yourself (except a good psych who can work with you to help you work things out). It just reeks of a lack of boundaries and controlling behavior to me.

Have you seen the egg irl subreddit ? Dangerous af place for impressionable teenagers imo. Lots of ppl confusing depression with gender dysphoria.

Yeah that subreddit is creepy and manipulative. It takes fairly common experiences of people with low self-esteem and labels them trans. Smells a bit like grooming to me too.
