I heard most kids grow out of it... UNLESS you put them on blockers.

My solution isn't just exorcism, that's only a last resort.

In my view, having a correctly functioning body and being unhappy is better than mutilating yourself for good feels. Look at this: https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/us-news/woman-blinded-herself-drain-cleaner-30934249.amp

That's not surgery, that's aiding and abbetting psychotic hallucinations that tell you to DAMAGE yourself. Same thing for gender sodomite mutilation

I also wouldn't lobotomize or electroshock my kid.

I shouldn't have kids? No, YOU shouldn't have kids.

I do have a kid. And, in fact, I have a special needs kid. He's autistic and still mostly nonverbal at age eight.

And since I love him, I did hundreds of hours of research about what's best for him and changed my intended parenting style. I play to his strengths. I work with him to help him become the best "him" he can be, whatever that ends up meaning. Maybe he'll be able to get a job and live independently one day. Maybe he won't. Either way will have to be fine.

I don't seek the services of a priest to cast out the autism demon and then just lock him in a cage until he learns to be normal, shouting at him that autism is BAD to have.

Because I'm a dad. Not a sociopath.

I'm autistic too, that is a medical condition and not a demon.

When I hit myself as a kid in autistic meltdowns, my parents stopped me from doing it. Because they loved me too much to see me damage myself for emotional release.

Now I'm long since cured of that impulse, it went away on it's own.

See what I'm saying? I will do the same to any kids I have. God bless your kid. And may God never let you snip his bits off.

Says who? The American Psychiatric Association recognizes "Gender Dysphoria in Children" as a medical condition. And there have been many autistic children subjected to exorcisms because their parents thought it was a demon.

God bless your kid. And may God never let you snip his bits off.

I have zero desire to snip anything off of my son.

If he came to me and said "I need a body part removed, it's really really important," I would listen to him carefully. I would talk to his mother. I would talk to our doctor. I would read studies and perspectives from other people who have been through it. After a lot of time and consideration, his mother and I would come to a decision.

What we wouldn't do is throw him in a cage and say "You're not getting out of there until you're normal."

I'd only throw my kid in a cage if he wanted to kill himself or mutilate his cock.

Also most of the time gender dysphoria is medical. But sometimes it's a demon

Being locked in a cage isn't going to make a kid any less suicidal. It'll probably make him more suicidal.

So what's the plan, then? Just keep him locked up forever? Feed him through the bars three times a day, dump his chamberpot, and be content that even though he has no future and no prospect for happiness, at least his heart is still beating?

I'll get the government to do it for me.

But who cares, none of this is an issue anyway. Kids mostly grow out of gender dysphoria by the time they grow up, so I'm ALREADY justified even if you pretended it WAS legitimate surgery.

And then if my kid still wants to dress all lady like and core his cock out at age 18, he can be my guest, as long as he does it somewhere else.
