Welcome to the PITT weekly roundup where you find a list of the week’s postings along with links to some of our favorite books, videos, social media, and podcasts. Please continue the fight against the harms of gender ideology by sharing.
Access to all PITT content is free. Our objective is to inform the public of the devastating impact of gender ideology on families through our personal experiences. And it’s working - support for transitioning of children and distressed young adults is crumbling due to evidence-based findings.
Quote of the Week from Somebody’s Precious Daughter: “My hope and prayer are that, at the very least, I put a proverbial pebble in her shoe….Maybe she’ll ask The People At School Who Study These Things about some new information she found, and their scripted responses will make her wonder, “Do they really know what they’re talking about? Is it possible that this isn’t the best way to deal with my distress?”
