About the Gender Critical Support Board

[poochlaya]

I've just submitted my registration on this forum after my 17 year old son declared out of nowhere that he wants to be a girl and wants to do hormones so he can pass. Friends in his surrounding have either transitioned themselves or are egging him on. He is not talking to us and seems to be brainwashed, like a cult member. Everything he says obviously comes from somewhere else. And the craziest thing is that he doesn't even say he has gender dysphoria. He just says he wants to be a girl, and he thought long and hard about it for almost two years after he learned that "it's an option".
After reading multiple stories about kids fast-tracked to hormone therapy without any questions asked, and doctors questioning this approach being fired and ostracized, I am terrified. I think the clinics who do that are negligent and should be sued for medical malpractice by people who, after growing up and detransitioning, ended up sterile and with their bodies mutilated. I would like to start a thread on the board once I can access it to seek input from people like that and their parents and consider whether a class-action lawsuit should be considered and proposed to various class action firms. I cannot just sit and watch this genocide against our kids happening and my child being swept by this tsunami. Would like to hear what others have to say.
