[quote=Anonymous] +1, although this can only work if the child and parents have some sense that this is a real possibility before puberty, and despite all the publicity about young kids transitioning I think this is still very rare. I appreciate 9:33's concern about it seeming drastic, but, of course, in a situation where this is more obvious of a possibility heading into puberty then it would not seem so drastic. And it can have huge benefits -- a biological boy at birth who later transitions can avoid having an revealingly deep voice for a girl and avoid some facial surgery (pronounced adams apple). A biological girl at birth can avoid breast surgery after puberty and other physical issues if he later transitions. And as 11:56 notes, if you stop the blocker things go back on track. BTW, my complements to the poster who summarized the Charlie Rose episode. That is a great summary. I suspect you do a lot of writing/editing in your career. [/quote]
