Sex-changing treatment for kids: It's on the rise
Just saw this today and my jaw dropped:

CHICAGO (AP) — A small but growing number of teens and even younger children who think they were born the wrong sex are getting support from parents and from doctors who give them sex-changing treatments, according to reports in the medical journal Pediatrics.

It's an issue that raises ethical questions, and some experts urge caution in treating children with puberty-blocking drugs and hormones.

An 8-year-old second-grader in Los Angeles is a typical patient. Born a girl, the child announced at 18 months, "I a boy" and has stuck with that belief. The family was shocked but now refers to the child as a boy and is watching for the first signs of puberty to begin treatment, his mother told The Associated Press.

Fuck no.

You would get them some help for a year or two, and then if that did not work, seriously consider it.

I think a 10 year old in AU got changed.

So wrong.

This is just crazyness. But really your kid tells you at 18 months old that they are a different gender than they were born. Maybe the other poster about the TV is right on and this kid started watching tv at 6 months old.

I can't believe things like this.

How pathetic are parents these days? They let their confused toddlers tell them what to do. Unbelievable.

So then there is this part:

"Switching gender roles and occasionally pretending to be the opposite sex is common in young children."

What kid hasn't enjoyed a good game of role playing

"But these kids are different. They feel certain they were born with the wrong bodies."

Ok, This is interesting. Maybe some of our GLP reincarnation experts can shed some light?

"Some are labeled with "gender identity disorder," a psychiatric diagnosis. But Spack is among doctors who think that's a misnomer. Emerging research suggests they may have brain differences more similar to the opposite sex."

Cool a new acronym: "GID"

"Spack said by some estimates, 1 in 10,000 children have the condition."

What!!! 1 in 10,00. that is quite a bit. Ok folks check your kids, maybe there are holding something back from you. lol

Good point.

Maybe we are just taking life too seriously and getting too confused with it all?!

Eight years old? that's nothing compared to the UK - a FIVE YEAR OLD has been diagnosed on the NHS as having 'Gender Identity Disorder' and now lives his life as a girl:

Imagine what this means for all those Fathers who want a boy.
Your wife pregnant with a girl?? No problem. Just stock up on these sex change drugs and when when the kid pops out, presto change-o Boy-o-rama for you. Of course you may need to sedate the wife.

I am sure this would be big in some of the third world countries.

Sick planet we live on huh..
