Dear Parents,

Can a parent turn despair into action?

We are honored to unveil our original documentary AFFIRMATION GENERATION on the medical ethics of “gender-affirming care.” And we need your help to spread the word about it!!! Please see the CALL-TO-ACTION at the bottom.

This 90-min. documentary features six ex-transgender men and women: Michelle, Laura, Cat, David, Abel and Joel. Without diagnostic clarity or treatment of their co-morbidities, these individuals were ushered mindlessly by their doctors towards wrong-sex hormones and surgeries. After a while, each of them detransitioned. Twelve leading experts in mental health, pediatrics, sociology and endocrinology with decades of clinical practice argue that “gender-affirming care” is a radical departure from how we treat any other distress, because the patient (no matter how young or unwell) dictates to the medical expert what he/she wants.

Who are the filmmakers? We are a few parents of ROGD kids, MDs, a lifelong LGB activist and a mental health professional—that are also veterans in the film biz. For a few years, we, the parents, were a shell of our former selves, shocked and shattered. So, we created a documentary to tell the stories of six detransitioners. This passion project is funded entirely out of our own pockets. And now we need your help to unleash it onto the world!

Here are the people we hope will watch our documentary: parents and families, pediatricians, mental health professionals, politicians and elected representatives at every level, and all leaders in education (School Board members, Principals, teachers, GSA club leaders, school psychologists, PTA members).
