American College of Paediatricians opposes child gender transition

The pushback against the harm LGBTIQA+ gender fluid ideology is doing to children continues with a major medical group in the US publicly opposing the practice of child gender transition.

Fox News reports:

The American College of Paediatricians (ACP) and allied groups styling themselves as "Doctors Protecting Children" have published a declaration urging mainstream American medical associations like the American Academy of Paediatrics to abandon support for so-called "gender-affirming care" for transgender youths.
"As physicians, together with nurses, psychotherapists and behavioural health clinicians, other health professionals, scientists, researchers, and public health and policy professionals, we have serious concerns about the physical and mental health effects of the current protocols promoted for the care of children and adolescents in the United States who express discomfort with their biological sex," the declaration states.

Unlike the UK which has closed its child gender clinic and banned the use of puberty blockers on children, the US and Australia continue this experimental practice at the behest of LGBTIQA+ political activists.

The Catholic News Agency in the US also carried the story.

Jill Simons, the executive director of the American College of Paediatricians, told “EWTN News Nightly” anchor Tracy Sabol on Thursday that the medical group has been “sounding the alarm” after the recently leaked files from the World Professional Association of Transgender Health in which transgender advocates admitted that children who receive permanently life-changing transgender procedures are too young to be capable of giving informed consent. 

Also raising alarm bells has been the release of England’s Cass Review, which found no  comprehensive evidence to support the routine prescription of transgender drugs to minors with gender dysphoria.

Family First is amongst a handful of Australian groups calling for an end to experimenting on children through so-called “gender affirming care”.

So far Australia’s political class is yet to act to ban the practice, despite the UK and several Nordic countries moving to ban it in the wake of the WPATH leaks and the Cass Report.

Child gender clinics operate with impunity in most capital cities and in Newcastle NSW.
