This is worse than hell. There is no comfort for you I understand. But the world needs more people like you who fight. And are not a sheep. People like us here. All we can do is keep sharing our words and stories—- yours, mine and others— withe the sheep we know who willfully look the other way when they are informed of this scandal on our children and families. I only survive one day at a time these days. And I dont have it as bad as you do. I appreciate you.

Now you’re talking. They really are the split tongued serpents of justice yet every once in while they are like knights taking on the behemoth and scoring the occasional “win” for the disenfranchised. We have laws and courts to avoid public brawls where brawn conquers the meek. What is happening now is the perversion of all that is sacred, the twisting and deformity of truth. I don’t think we need to resurrect an OK corral type shoot out but where does this train stop?

Thanks for this Reni. Parents/families can go to therapyfirst.org. Clinicians on this site provide psychotherapy around gender in the same way they approach therapy addressing social anxiety, depression, eating disordered behaviors, ruptured family bonds, etc. In other words, “gender affirming care” is not the preferred nor standard treatment modality.

OMG, this is a true Twilight Zone story! It was hard for me to read this without crying myself…thinking of losing my kid to this horror! The people who do this to you are evil liars, and they want you to lie ..or else they aren’t satisfied ! They’re out for blood! Like Vampires , they suck out your life ! I HATE those vile creatures ! Why are they allowed to ruin people’s lives?

I fervently hope that the “professionals “ who made you go through this nightmare will be punished for their evil deeds! It’s enough! It has to end!

I just had a wonderful Father’s Day dinner with my 17 year old twin grandchildren. I simply cannot believe that this is happening to people in a free society. The most insane aspect to the whole situation is that we might have to elect the sociopath Trump to reverse this.

Moloch worshippers. I hate them with a vengeance.

I am so sorry for your pain and loss.

Oh my aching heart. You have been through the wringer and you’re probably not clear yet. THIS IS DEMONIC AND THE PRODUCT OF DISEASED MINDS!! You are so strong I don’t know how you did it. Do any of them love their own children? It sounds like they just wanted to torture you and destroy you. I’m so glad you got that hug! Get treatment if you can because you must have PTSD by now. Wishing you the very best and all the strength and support you deserve.

They are transing their children. This is what Helen Joyce says in her book “Trans, when ideology meets reality”.

You can’t speak truth to power - these people are castrating their children

It is the demonic spirit of Molech, the devourer. It seeks to capture the innocent and destroy love and truth.

I hope you and your child will be reunited and that your child is freed from bondage by evil, unseen forces.

I was a neurotic mess when I had my first child. I was terrified that something, anything, might occur to rip him from my arms. When he was about 5 yrs old I had the best worst nightmare of my life. It caused me to awaken as if thrown from an airplane, with crushing chest pain, yet I knew everything would be okay and though I wondered if I was having a coronary attack, I decided that if it indeed was my time to go then it was my time to go. I went back to sleep thinking that if I wake in this life then so be it. If not then also, so be it.

I dreamt that my son went missing and in my frantic search I came across a small skull on the ground, covered in dirt. Hysterical I ran through the forest sobbing when I encountered a strange and menacing man, leaning against a tree. Somehow I knew he had taken my son and I accused him at which point he tried to attack me. I was afraid but then suddenly at peace so I fought back and broke free. I attacked him back and he became oddly frail and weak. I screamed at him that he might have taken my son away from me but only for a little while and that I would we be reunited forever in a place he could not reach us. That he would eventually perish into an eternal hell, alone and miserable.

I awoke crying and in physical pain yet able to accept that God would be our redeemer and no matter what threats may come, He would defend our mortal souls.

I had more confidence ever since that the forces of evil can cause us grief in this life but keeping faith in God would ensure that it cannot reach us in the next life. I had defeated the devil with faith and woke up the next morning shaken but no longer terrified of evil.

Death and grief will surely separate us from those we love but it’s only for a short time in the scheme of things. Keep your faith that truth will overcome the shroud of darkness upon your child who was carefully and lovingly crafted by our creator.

No one will ever be able to explain to me how this is happening in the land of the free & brave. Oh, right, the USA has not been led democratically for what, at least 16 years? Has it been longer than that? I AM SO SORRY THIS IS HAPPENING TO YOU & YOUR CHILD. I am a licensed psychotherapist & have not once been on board with gender &/or sex “identity” “affirmation” for CHILDREN (under age 25). As ADULTS SHOULD KNOW, identities shift & change THROUGHOUT THE HUMAN LIFESPAN. “Affirming” a young person’s staunch insistence that he or she can morph into a girl or boy in order to “match” how he or she feels in CHILDHOOD is as harmful as affirming a young person’s announced identification as a dragon. How does a boy know what it feels like to be a girl? How does a girl know what it feels like to be a dragon? There have existed feminine leaning boys/men & masculine leaning girls/women for centuries. Humans have estrogen & testosterone just at varying levels. PARENTS: PLEASE TRY TO FIND HEALTHY OUTLETS, RESOURCES, SUPPORT FOR YOURSELVES. IT’S ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ACTIONS YOU CAN TAKE FOR WHEN YOUR CHILDREN RETURN NO MATTER THE AGE.

I’m glad there are therapists like you who don’t buy the lies of the gender cult. But how can a parent know which therapist will truly help their child instead of “ affirming” their fantasy ? Too many of them go along with the ideology , and they have helped to cause the heartbreak of so many parents!

This has been happening in #Canada for many years now, in fact, decades. The CAS (Children's Aid Society) is the Brown Shirt arm of our Communist System here.

I had a similar experience, though not concerning "gender," back in 1996. Once CAS gets into your home, you NEVER get them out. They say they "close the file" but they re-open it for your GRANDCHILDREN if you do not comply and are of a "Christian Home."

$35,000 was spent on lawyers to get no satisfaction and no reconciliation of family.

They use SHAME to control parents. It's damnable the damage these #cultists do.

It’s horrific..Orwellian!

Orwellen story. So sad for your situation.

What country? I think it would be good for readers to at least ID the country or State (US) where the government steps in to this extent.

I am also curious - I was just assuming that this couldn't happen in US red states, but the fact that it recently happened in Montana and Indiana, both very red, makes me wonder.

I thought that a parent is safe in red states.

Wow. Just Wow.

From my experience with my ROGD daughter:

1. Desistance takes years, not months. So you do what you can to prevent the drugs and the knife until she’s better mentally.

2. Desistance happens gradually. There’s not an “Aha!” moment. You think she’s better, but you not sure for many months. You see the changes, but you worry she’ll backslide into dysphoria. Took me a year to accept my baby’s not going back.

FYI: March 12 is Detrans Awareness day.

So heartbreaking. Here is a US based organization that’s on the correct side of this tragedy, https://childparentrights.org/

I learned about it on this podcast, The Informed Parent with Suzanne Phillips, S2 E7 posted 2/28/24. https://open.spotify.com/episode/3O7XzoPPdMr6hWGVUCJulO?si=dW5oo3e2TVy9YE1n2gVLJw

One more thing. I just signed up to be a guardian ad litem. I am hopeful that I can make an impact. We need more people to stand up against this woke culture!

Do you think"they" will allow that if you don't agree with all this?
