This article is spot on. I follow a group on Facebook where the comments she posted are exactly like that . The glee with which the moms post about the drastic physical changes ( binding, top surgery, hormones) their children are going through is to me astounding and very scary. How a mother (or father, but that is apparently rarer) can support their own healthy child’s physical mutilation in rapid and sudden onset is incredible to me. In such groups any questioning is shut down. It seems they live in an alternate reality and what when the child later wakes up to the fact that they will never be of the other sex? It’s all a charade /fantasy . This is heartwrenching actually.

It is like munchausen by proxy. They love the attention it brings them. It is truly sick.
