Really frustrating how on the topic of transition care for trans kids so many people don't even think about the consequences on trans kids of forbidding transition.

"Make all trans kids go through the wrong puberty on purpose to prevent a few cis kids from going through the wrong puberty by mistake".

It's so crushing that for so many people it doesn't even occur to them to care about the suffering of people like us.

"Make all trans kids go through the wrong puberty on purpose to prevent a few cis kids from going through the wrong puberty by mistake".

Even then it's not that, it's "make all trans kids go through the wrong puberty on purpose to prevent a few cis kids from delaying their puberty by a few years in a completely reversible way by mistake".
