You can find whatever you want to support your claim -- on the internet.
There's always someone who's going to state what you want to believe.
I've been following this subject for 20 years. I've yet to know of any legitimate study presenting the serious adverse affects of hormone blockers.

If you don't understand the need for hormone blockers prior to puberty -- you know nothing about transgender.
Are there dark sides. Yes -- in everything.
Thank you for demonstrating the sickness of transgender activism with your post.
I did not!
I am not responsible for your misinterpretation.

Anyone who would even suggest doing this to a child should be chemically lobotomized.

Since you don't accept transgender.
You choose to believe what you want.
There really is no point in discussion with you.
Really? This is about kids, nothing against peaceful law abiding trans people, reckon the same for Boadicea.
Just leave the kids alone, with messing with their biology - this is their hormones and growth and entry into adult hood.
Obviously.
If you can't understand the need for hormone blockers prior to puberty.
There is no point.
Having kids shouldn’t be a right. It should be a privilege you earn.

I honestly have difficulty wrapping my mind around what the agenda behind this really is. It appears to be geared to legalizing and legitimizing child genitalia mutilation which will of course, have dramatic impacts on fertility going forward, not to mention enormous costs of the profound psychological trauma being inflicted on these poor little people.
Tony -- I can't for the life of me wrap my head around this either. There are many who obviously benefit from pushing this agenda -- Big Pharma, surgeons, psychologists, population control freaks, and perverts to name a few -- but I can't put my finger on one big agenda so to speak.
I do know we're being fed a big stinking bag of crap tho in terms of the "science" and the "unity" of the left on the issues, with any dissension punished quickly and harshly. From de-platforming to physical assault.
The James case is weird, but not unusual apparently, at least not in the UK.
I was reading about that as well. Its heartbreaking to know the most vulnerable and defenseless are being exploited this way. I know I'm not the only one who thinks it feels like "grooming"...
We have seen it play out. Stage one was a massive hypersexualisation of everything. Step 2 was a move towards more and more extreme forms of kink. I don't want to really expand much more but suffice to say, step 3 will be to push our understanding of sexuality so far past our boundaries of what is acceptable, that we will call for sex itself to be regulated, so that noone needs to get hurt.

And this is the problem with subjective rather than objective truth.
Whose subjective truth takes precedence here? Dad's, Mom's, or James's and which one of James's at that? That's why an outside, appointed expert out to be the one making recommendations, not one sought out and paid by any of the three in question.

I think that a "wait until the child is and adult so he/she/it can make his/her/its own decisions on the matter" would be appropriate.
Hormone blockers are needed prior to going through puberty.

Obviously, you are not knowledgeable of transgender.
But, have already made your mind up -- by what you believe.
Do I think 8 is too young for drug interference? Yes.
However, pre-puberty is necessary to stop the developing of physical change.
Doctors are still required.

If you can't understand that hormone blockers prior to puberty is CHILD ABUSE, there is no point, you are lost, and I can only hope and pray that you don't have any access to or influence over any minor children anywhere in your life.

You are ignorant of this subject.
Perhaps you should ask a transgender directly about going or not going through puberty.
I'm a grandmother. Sorry to disappoint you.

Personally, I think that's exactly what's going on, but there is a therapist involved already and I'm very afraid the court will rely on that one. But that one is one chosen by the mother.
In this case, I see an argument for one outside the whole sorry mess to go in and start from scratch with all of them -- no preconceived notions about any of it.
