re: Boston Children’s Hospital now offering “gender affirming” hysterectomies to young girls

My wife and I have talked a lot in recent weeks about our resolve on this stuff - ie that we are prepared to deal with the social/professional consequences of yanking our kid out of any setting where transgenderism is presented as a valid/normal concept.

I know for many of you (and thankfully) there isn't really a discussion to be had there, but in some of our circles and definitely in our profession you have a lot of people who are so fearful of social pressures that they'd likely leave their kid in those environments to avoid the disgust of the refined crowd they hang out with.

Anyway, and not that we need an explanation, but aside from ethical/Christianity-based/reality-based/science-based objections, the truth is that there are almost no good outcomes for kids in these environments. Someone identifying as trans probably has a 90% likelihood of being diagnosed with another major mental/emotional disorder. I don't think it's at all a reach to say that playing nice on this or feeding this delusion can be a death sentence for your kids.

yea i have 3 boys and we sent ours to a very conservative catholic school so they dont see this shite, but the biggest thing is just being involved with them as a father and getting them to do manly things.

other thing is, dont let them have social media and monitor what they watch on youtube and get their asses outside and get them exercising.

let them see you do things that are manly like work on things, lift weights, play sports, cook, go to work

if you do those things and show them and their mom love, chances are you wont have these issues.

OP as usual would believe anything coming from platforms like Libs of Tik Tok. They were full of misinformation on this.

So, just ignore that those videos are real is your gameplan here?

So do you think she’s just hiring a bunch of actors and having top video quality. Who am I going to believe: you or my own lying eyes and ears?

Its a race to see who's kid is the first on the block to have it done.

Bragging rights for the parent are everything.

Seems like simpler times back in the day when they were just travel ball moms wearing homemade "All about that BASE" t-shirts and putting tons of pressure on the kids because they took out a second mortgage to look cool in front of the other moms.

This is insane.

i have to tell them to not watch Andrew Tate and my oldest son sends me Matt Walsh clips.

I have never once listened to Matt Walsh around my children for them to gather who he is from me.

my oldest has pinterest, but no social media and my youngest has an XBox that he can't get youtube on.

Although I also want my kids to appreciate the dignity of any and all work that produces and tangible serves the needs of others, and try to build a work ethic around that. Which isn't necessarily anti-socialist by any means but probably runs on the right side of the twisted US debate on socialism/capitalism. Of course, I'm probably more likely than most conservatives to guide my kids away from worship of capitalism, too.

---

Ditto. I just mean it in terms of, i want my kids to have a biblical worldview when it comes to their morality. Economically, i of course want them to be capitalist and understand the value of a hard earned dollar. but in terms of the Bible, there are some merits to what socialism wants to be (but can never be in today's world run by sinful people.)

Re: private school, on most things we're finding the trade offs. The better "Christian" private schools tend to have the same flaws as public schools on these issues.

this tends to be true in a lot of larger towns. i keep a fairly close eye on their humanities and religious studies. it doesn't take one side or the other and keeps an even keel. I don't want little MAGAs out of them but i also don't want little AOCs.

i'm also friends with the superintendent and he bounces politics off me often. he's the only male in leadership so he likes to use me as a sounding board for a more conservative approach most often.

Libs of TikTok calls the children’s hospital and they confirm they have done hysterectomies on girls much younger than 16: Twitter

Elections have consequences. Stolen elections have catastrophic consequences. Who will be there to console these young girls when they realize they made a terrible mistake? A terrible mistake they cannot undo.

Woe to you that you should cause one of these little ones to do something they'll regret one day. Something terribly wrong and terribly evil.

America is going off the deep end. But there is still hope......
