I want them to test the parents.

"To our surprise we also tested the IQs of the parents and found a similar correlation to low IQ despite the parents never having taken puberty blockers. Very strange indeed."

I think you’d probably find high-IQ parents with a submissive father and dominant, cluster-B, Munchausen’s Syndrome by Proxy mother.

I say High IQ because this does seem to be most prevalent amongst the upper middle classes and I suspect high IQ people are more often more likely to be susceptible to the Dunning-Kruger effect, members of Facebook groups, be more “progressive” and want to show off their LGBTQ child.

Bold of you to think that the dad stuck around.

I mean I'm def judging slightly but I've def seen more than one case where there's a single mother who seems to hate men including her son to the point that you can absolutely see her convincing the son that he's actually her daughter. Especially seems to be the case when they're really wrapped up in their kids life being a 'friend' rather than a parent.

Seen a few cases where the kid is just being used as a pawn in divorce proceedings and the mother has the child thinking their trans as a way to spite the father.
