[quote=Anonymous]They stopped doing it because of one professor there whose ideas have been debunked. And now they've started doing it again: https://thinkprogress.org/johns-hopkins-transgender-surgery-5c9c428184c1#.cebpw2r78 Surgery isn't the right answer for everyone, and it's not going to be an immediate solution to a lifetime of complicated physical and mental health issues that some people who have surgery have also developed. But that's not to be expected. If someone has asthma and you give them an inhaler, is the treatment a failure because it doesn't cure their broken leg or OCD? Trans people are varied and complex. Surgery is not the only thing they want or need. But it can be one helpful thing for some people. And nobody is suggesting that OP's child have surgery at this point, anyway. [/quote]
