I'm glad he isn't my child. But, I wouldn't have indulged his mental problems.

@checkfactschecking Where did you get that 100% figure? Because all the stats I've seen are less than half are happy, and most wished they hadn't mutilated themselves.

@joels5150 Not at 18. The brain really isn't fully mature until one is in their twenties. It's not a switch, but a maturational process. However, the law needs a limit, and 21 would be a good benchmark. No body mods, especially one's that make you sterile, until you're 21.

Puberty blockers are permanently damaging. They prevent normal maturation.

@AnarchoAngel Actually, the data I've seen from Europe, shows that most people who transition later regret doing so. Where is your data from? It is highly suspect.

@marcwells03 According to European data, a lot of children, who had themselves mutilated, later committed suicide. When one of my daughters was little, she thought she was a cat (for all of two weeks). I didn't have her mutilated to "affirm" her delusion.
