Lesbians Giving “their son” Controversial Puberty Blockers

(Harrisburg) — Further proof that lesbians should not be permitted to adopt is found in a story out of California where two “mommies” believe “their son” is really a girl and have begun a controversial hormone treatment to delay puberty. The American Family Association of Pennsylvania (AFA of PA), a statewide child advocacy group, is astounded that the authorities have not been called in to investigate.

“This young boy is being raised by two mommies and there is not apparently a father figure in his life. Their message to him, just through the family structure in which he is being raised, gives the very clear message that men are unimportant and unnecessary,” noted Diane Gramley, President of the AFA of PA.

Concerns from others have included the medical and psychological risks posed for a young child who begins using puberty blockers. The American Psychological Association views such gender confusion as a mental disorder — gender identity disorder. It would be better for this little boy to have a good counselor rather than drugs pumped into his system to stop his natural progression into puberty.

This little boy adopted by two women in a lesbian relationship is another victim of the culture war. He is another guinea pig in this wrong-headed effort to redefine family. Too many adults have place their desires before the needs of children and children do best raised by their married biological mother and father.

“Common sense tells us that a little boy needs the influence of a father to teach him how to be a boy and needs other boys to interact with to encourage that image. Experts recognize that these two factors can change the way a little boy views himself and that the healthy psychological development of the little boy must include feeling accepted by and identifying with his father. Something this little boy has been deprived of,” Gramley further stated.

Where are the adults who are supposed to protect our nation’s children?

Actually, the puberty blockers simply block puberty from occuring until the child is certain of how they wish to live the rest of their lives. And this was not initiated by the parents, but by the child themselves.

Reading the article, their “expert” critics, like the professor from Johns Hopkins, have been widely considered to be on the wrong side of widely accepted treatment regiments and is a proponent of reparitive therapy, whcih has not “cured” one trandsgender person, yet has led to many suicides due to it’s use.

It’s outrageous to think that the decision to put the little girl on puberty blockers is anything but the right thing to do. They have special gender specialists that are able to evaluate your child to say whether your son is truly ready to become your daughter or vice versa. To think that they would “pump her full of drugs” without any sort of struggle for the family is completely unbelievable, and to think that it has anything to do with the absence of a father figure is even worse. Your child, whether they be 2 months old or 200 months old, know who they are inside. If they are a girl, let them be a girl. It has nothing to do with where their father is.

Without a father figure this little boy is confused about who he is. Because of the family structure in which he is being raised, he is getting the clear message that males are not important. He is a little boy and no matter what is done to his physical body that will never change.

Erica D.: Have you ever heard of the Rev. J. Grace Harley or Walter Heyer — both FORMER transgenders who now are trying to warn of how destructive sex reassignment surgery is and the need for real psychiatric intervention for those who mistakenly believe they were born in the wrong body. A 2011 study out of Sweden found, “Persons with transsexualism, after sex reassignment, have considerably higher risks for mortality, suicidal behavior, and psychiatric morbidity than the general population.” Last month Dr. Joseph Berger from Toronto issued a statement saying that from a medical and scientific perspective there is no such thing as a “transgendered” person.
