We'd better get used to our loved ones transitioning to another sex, because gender transitions are up by 4,000 percent over the last few years and continuing to increase.

It's a very popular thing among school children these days. A middle school guidance counselor in a school in my area said 4 girls came into her office at once and said, "We all believe we are boys now. We are going to transition." The counselor didn't know what to say. It would be against the law to discourage them, yet she wasn't well versed in where to refer them for hormones and surgeries.

I read an article yesterday about parents suing the state because Republicans had voted against allowing hormones and surgeries for children, and their nine-year-old transgender child would be denied the hormones they sought under the new laws.

You are a wise father to emphasize the importance of love and relationship, regardless of these decisions.
