The United States has finally lost its collective mind!
I agree but not because of this.
How this family chose to live their lives is up to them , who are they hurting ?
They are hurting a 13 year old and an 11 year old who have never had a chance to be 'normal', considering the parents who have the biggest influence on them.
Children will believe whatever parents are doing is the right thing to do, even if it is counter productive.
I couldn't care less what to adults are up to and whatever gender they believe to be but FFS don't screw up kids.
I don't believe for one second that these kids would have this desire of being the opposite sex had they been raised in a different environment.
The damage will come later, once they had the chance to see more of the world and gain more experience.
There are some trans people, yes they exist but with every 'fad' there will be idiots that will take it too far. Humans are like that, there are idiots among us and I refuse to accept idiots. I accept real suffering and help but not 'hang-ons' and attention seekers. This family is clearly nuts and in dire need of therapy.
They are really damaging to real trans people and their cause. More than anyone else.

What a #show .
Each to there own but don't brainwash your kids .
This bit made me piss ,
“Shirley taught Daniel how to use a chainsaw. Daniel taught Shirley to memorize all the stones in her engagement ring, in case another woman asks. Daniel does the yard work. Shirley, the cooking.
Joke.

. . . we're allowing children to take hormones to change their gender?
NO!
Hormone blockers only delay puberty and the physical changes it causes.
Postponed until legal adulthood, so any further decisions will be made as an adult.
Studies show there are no adverse effects to hormone blockers.
Ignorance never helps in a debate.
That is one of the most bizarre statements and proof of mental illness one could ever hear.
How can one be an adult IF THEY HAVE NOT GONE THROUGH PUBERTY AND THE PHYSICAL CHANGES.
WHAT further decisions...
This transgenderness will not be fixed or solved by any of the current "treatments", noone is even sure of what is going on.
One thing that SHOULD be known and actually is..brain damage of all types is highly undiagnosed and needs to be looked into.
A second thing would be to refute the incredible thought that hormone blockers...HAVE NO ADVERSE EFFECT.
Time to round up these "scientists" a pathetic bunch that they are, and ask them why they lie so much.
It's official. The United States has finally lost its collective mind

I know I'm supposed to care...but I don't, not really.
Who is being hurt here?
This has had, will have, no effect on my normal day to day existence.
If this family, assuming for a moment this story is even true, is happy? Who am I to judge?
Society, as a whole, needs to mind its own business. Certainly many folks within it do.

No people have not lost their minds. This is causes by gender bending chemicals. Peeps are being poisoned.
