Summary
The politicization of transgender children in the U.S. has escalated, with more than half of states banning gender-affirming care for minors since Arkansas passed the first ban in 2021.
Tennessee’s HB1, prohibiting transition-related care while allowing similar treatments for non-transition purposes, faces a Supreme Court challenge led by the ACLU and DOJ.
Conservative justices appear poised to uphold the law, citing states’ rights and physiological differences.
Critics argue the law enforces gender roles and violates the 14th Amendment.
Well it’s a good thing that we have meds that allow us to delay the necessity in making that choice. Oh wait, no, they are preventing those as well, forcing a choice on the child. The exact opposite of what you claim to be trying to stop.
Maybe you need to actually be educated about things from industry experts before you try and force your expectations on society. Because they’ve dedicated their life to this. Your feelings about the matter mean absolutely nothing.

You asked if this was the sort of decision a child should be making. Showing you have no clue about how these decisions are made. And then implied that it was child abuse. Showing that you are being disingenuous with your concern.
They don’t just let kids decide this on their own. The kid has to want it. The guardians have to consent, and doctors have to decide there’s reason for it. They don’t just do it for “funsies”. And even then until they are an adult nothing permanent or irreversible is done.
