Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire A Dad & His Transgender Daughter; Very Sad

Your boy suffers from an emotional illness and treating this illness with powerful drugs that disrupt his endocrine system is not the solution.They were never developed to treat this particular emotional illness.To this date there is no empirical data that proves these drugs to be effective in the treatment of gender dysphoria.

The manufacturer and the fifty clinics that have sprung up in the last decade to prescribe these drugs for gender dysphoria are taking advantage of these situations under the guise of providing a solution.

1.Claims that the treatment is reversible have not been proven.

2.The treatments aren't harmless.“Puberty suppression hormones prevent the development of secondary sex characteristics, arrest bone growth, decrease bone accretion, prevent full organization and maturation of the brain, and inhibit fertility according to these professors. Paul W. Hruz, a professor at Washington University School of Medicine; Lawrence S. Mayer, a scholar in residence at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and a professor at Arizona State University; and Paul R. McHugh, university distinguished professor of psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and the former psychiatrist-in-chief at Johns Hopkins.

3.The most-cited studies conclude most children with gender dysphoria come to embrace their birth sex. But Hruz, Mayer, and McHugh warn hormone therapy often solidifies a child’s gender dysphoria, driving him or her to persist in identifying as transgender, instead of allowing for the likely result,growing out of it.

This is a PDF file of their landmark report:
"Growing Pains Problems with Puberty Suppression in Treating Gender Dysphoria."

So should he fight this and alienate his kid while putting it in the hands of our liberal court system we have here? I know the original article is in Canada but it could just as easily take place here. Our Wisconsin state capitol flew the pride flag for fück sake which is a different subject but I was not fan of that in the least.

We should all be fortunate enough to never be stuck in between the rock and a hard place that he is in.

It’s a tough subject and believe me if I wasn’t seeing ceow717 struggles in person and knowing how the kid was raised I’d be right there with you guys.

We’re talking about a boy that was kicked outside whenever the weather was nice, always had toys every red blooded American would have, and was always hanging out with groups of normal dudes. At 13 years old he worked on a lawn crew weedwacking and mowing for 8+ hours a day 3 days a week.

Thats a really fair point. But does that make them "gay" or just filling a void because of social inadequacies and awkwardness? Are they gay or bi sexual? Because they are dating a female does that means they are 100% gay or scared of men because of abuses they have suffered at the hands of a man? I suppose you could be right.

Your moral compass is broken if you don't think so.

Then why are you "treating" the boy with powerful, body & life altering drugs? Why are you worried about him committing suicide if he doesn't get his way?

BTW are you and your wife divorced? Just curious.

My child has a small implant in the arm that put the pituitary gland on pause. I’m not treating with powerful drugs. Yes I’ve read the studies, hundreds of them. Why am worried about suicide? Statistics, that’s why.

My kids mother and I divorced when he was a year old. My wife and I have been together for 13 years, but I’m not sure what this has to do with anything as we get along swimmingly.

Obviously Denial isn't a river in Egypt.

Sicko!

You said a mouthful.^

God help us.

Feel better?

If there ever was a case of " if you don't have anything nice to say, then shut the f~ck up! " then this is it, who the h~ll would put themselves through this kind of revolving sh~!t show if they had a choice ?

Its amazing the unfounded knowledge a bunch of self appointed experts on Physiological effects of the changes in physical development makes in child's life.

Some of you have shown a level of ignorance , not seen since Hitler was above room temperature. You are giving idiots a bad rap.

CEoW717, I wish you nothing but the best, and an open ear anytime you wanna talk about anything.

I will take my own advice and stop right here, as the rest isn't going to be nice.

I can't imagine the anguish you and your wife went through in trying to figure out the right thing to do without having a permanent affect on your child's future choices. Nothing easy about that I'm sure. Best of luck to your family as being a family is more important than the matter of how people feel about your child.

Thank you for that and showing me there is far more support on this forum than close-mindedness

I read where the trans kids are most likely just gay. Right?



At least it would seem like less of a stretch that the kid is gay.......rather than try to sell gender dysphoria.

I appreciate that. It’s nice to know there are still good people in the world that are willing to offer support even when its a rock and a hard place situation.

Your kid has an implant in his arm to stunt the pituitary gland to lower the risk of suicide?

Lower the risk of normal maturation into what nature intended.

There are more than a few great men here, most are smart enough to keep their mouths shut when it comes to subjects that they know nothing about, others just can't help but shout their stupidity from the rooftops.

I hope you find the answers that get your family back on the road to productivity and happiness.

When I said "great men" I meant "great people" people like Ms Lynn , she's pretty & smart ' for being a girl and all !

There has been a lot going on with that child and that family that CEO isn't talking about. He may not even know. I guarantee it.

I'd criticize someone too if they came on here and bragged about cheating on their wife or bragged about banging a 14 yo girl. "But it's consensual" they'd cry.

I feel sorry for you people that are too malformed to tell right from wrong.

Ha! Tell us all you know about it then.
