Great points. We protect children. Even Libertarians don't grant the same "rights" to children. And we always should do whatever has the least possibility for harm, first. I just wonder how all the doctors and hospitals will survive the eventual lawsuits, especially from parents of kids who killed themselves AFTER the surgery
Children, and I’ll include young adults, are extremely impressionable. I can still remember in the sixties how often someone told me they were Buddhist. Wish I could ask them now. On the transgender “fad”, the best analogy I’ve heard is would you tell someone anorexic “oh yes, you’re too fat. You should get liposuction or gastric surgery.” Of course not. And, you’d probably be berated for even suggesting it. Why the contradiction?
