[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I appreciate that you are attempting to find a middle road, in your own mind. But if the position of the AMA and AAP are an "extreme position", then you need a reality check. A few decades ago, homophobia was wrapped in the same expressions of concern that transphobia is today.[/quote] New poster, but I don't see PP's comments as not affirming the child, merely recognizing that not feeling ready for an Instagram version of teen femininity at 10 or 11 is not the same as feeling non-binary or trans. I know trans children and they have been clear about their identities since very young ages. A child who is on the cusp of or just beginning puberty and doesn't feel ready for or doesn't recognize themselves in an adult male or female body yet doesn't need to have their anxieties further pathologized into actual dysmorphia.
