You’re suggesting I transition my child because 66% of the diagnosis say I should?Question for you.
Let's say you have a kid going though some serious emotional issues and a trusted doctor recommends therapy.
You take your kid to therapy and because the issues are serious, it goes several sessions. Finally, the therapist says your kid is experiencing gender dysphoria; affirmation therapy is probably required.
You find another doctor, looking for a second opinion and other options. Several sessions later you get the same diagnosis.
You're a clever guy and you find a therapist endorsed by a conservative institute. They tell you to be firm with your kid because it's just a phase and will pass.
Are you satisfied with the third diagnosis?
Also, I have no idea where such a hypothetical question would have even stemmed from in this conversation.
