Parents of transgender children in Texas are reeling after Governor Greg Abbott issued a directive telling "licensed professionals" and "members of the general public" to report parents of transgender minors to authorities if it appears those children are receiving gender-affirming medical care.

The directive, which is not a law, was sent to the state's Department of Family and Protective Services this week, calling on the agency to investigate any reports of minors receiving gender-affirming care. On Monday, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton released an opinion that said allowing children to receive care like puberty blockers, hormone therapy and surgery is child abuse.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

thus involves situations where people are giving hormones or gender changing treatment to children, right?

i don’t let my kids pick the dinner menu regularly, because i don’t want to eat snickers bars for dinner. i ain’t letting them decide to mutilate themselves.

kids can’t make these decisions, they’re not equipped. not even close. that’s why they need parents.

looks like there’s no consensus on whether or not the effects of these treatments are reversible. i’d outlaw it in the case of children.

i want every single kid to be ecstatically happy and confident and secure. im skeptical that allowing little kids decide to do this to themselves, is a good idea. it sounds bonkers to me. adults can do whatever they want.

if it appears those children are receiving gender-affirming medical care.

So you support citizens reporting parents based on if they think or it appears ?

Jim this is just like CRT or FLA don’t say gay bill

It’s not happening in schools and trans parents aren’t abusing their children ! It’s just in the imagination of law makers and their uninformed voters .

But guess what

Conversion Therapy’ Aimed at Gay People Remains Legal in Texas

Funny how that works
