Yes being human has its challenges. I wish our kids would realize that and that being trans isn’t some magic that’s going to make everything perfect. I wish I had contact with my son and could apologize for my codependent behaviors that harmed him growing up. However, I’m not responsible for this choice. There is a definite movement to dupe our kids and depopulate. It has demonic origins and must be fought on the spiritual front. Thanks

So poignant. So right on. So sad. So much all of us parents of adult children who are choosing this atrocity have to live with every second of every day. #youarenotalone

Thank you for your honesty. Revealing your being "liberal" yet not accepting this insanity that our children have believed. I too realize that at some point my son will have contact with us again. I pray to God we don't have to wait years. But I don't know how I will handle all the emotions and nuances as he is very sensitive, intelligent, and aware of facial expressions and attitudes. I think my heart is actually a bit frozen as the pain in our family is too great. I may not be able to handle it if I let myself fully embrace our reality and my emotions. At times I do release those emotions. I pray daily and live my life believing things will one day be resolved. The truth is, my son is not safe, believing the lies of the trans world. I choose each day to believe there is always hope, as long as he is alive.

Thank you! Other than my son at 18 taking feminizing hormones (he is in no way becoming a woman), you just described our experience almost exactly. I too am now questioning if I can call myself liberal even though every other part of my financial and political opinions are very progressive. I just hope he will be able to find a life despite what he has chosen: 5 months ago he started hormones, so the harm - sterilization, the lack of ability to have an erection, the budding of breasts has already happened. I can't stand that I should be be ok with this. The doctors who prescribed his estrogen are completely unethical and should be sued for malpractice.

So well said. It is horrible that anyone would think having a Lesbian in the family might mean parents would accept this evil cult. The trans cult has almost destroyed our Lesbian community, erasing and stealing our history for their own. It's a parasite, with nothing real about it. But clothed in the pretense of being part of Lesbian and Gay community (which was never connected either) means too many Lesbians support this horror to where those of us who say no are threatened and thrown out of the community we helped created. It's like the cuckoo who lays an egg in the nest of a smaller bird, that then hatches and kicks out the other eggs, so the mother feeds and raises the monster as if it's her own. That's what "LGBTQIA" is, and I keep saying, why not just add KKK to that mess?

It's bad enough that we are in literal danger from this cult, but that our own people support them is so cruel. Now, events are advertised for June, "Pride month," but we are not safe or welcome. The trans grotesque intrusion is even on the "Pride" flag, where it looks raped. But if we say anything, we are called "transphobic" and told to get "educated."

Most enraging are the organizations advertising that they help "LGBTQIA youth" while asking for money. I post that they are betraying Lesbians, and then get piled on with insults and threats.

I've been fighting this since 1970 and one of the men pretending to be a Lesbian has been stalking me since 1968.

One hope is that some of the women and girls do return to us. And write books and also file law suits. Actually, that might help more than anything, to put these evil people out of business.

That's a good framing, because everyone knows those villains--and they too operated as a network

I think a lot support him though. We certainly can't trust him or his nazi cohorts. They are coming at us from every side, from preventing abortions, even for women with dead babies inside them, to supporting the trans cult in their own way.

A similarity with my own story, my daughter told me she hated men. All men. Not just her but her friends as well.

Then she decided to become one. Seriously? What kind of mental gymnastics are going on behind the scenes here?

I think she has to admit that there is a huge difference between a biological male and a female to male trans man. As we all know there is but the trans community is in denial about this. A trans man is not a man and never will be. S/he is something halfway.

She is still fully a female, except for appearance. Because of the hatred some have for men, I suspect trauma, but then almost all females have been harassed and assaulted. I know a woman who said she "transitioned" because she didn't want to be raped any more. I told her she's joining with her enemy then and that is no protection.

So tragic and unnecessary...

Thank-you for sharing your painful story. You're on the right side of truth, Mom. Hopefully, your daughter will see the light one day. I recently watched this three-part documentary series about the cult "Twin Flames". There are many similarities to the trans cult, with the exception that Twin Flames has one narcissistic couple doing the initial grooming and abuse. Cult members then continue to perpetuate the abuse. Some of the abuse includes convincing some female members that they actually have "male divine" energy and therefore, need to transition.

Episode three introduces a trans activist who claims that gender exploration should come from within a person, not from outside influences (like Twin Flames) and therefore, this is the reason Twin Flames is dangerous to trans people. The irony is laughable. I wanted to yell at the TV screen, to tell this fool that grooming goes on in the real world, from elementary schools to colleges, from doctors offices to hospitals, from communities celebrating Pride to governments and politicians celebrating men who think they're women, and on and on. There was the usual disclaimer in writing after the episode that "only 1% of trans people regret their transition", blah, blah, blah.

This is superb. Your objectivity and thoughtfulness in the midst of heartbreak are inspiring. This is the best kind of love you can model for others, sacrificing neither yourselves nor your daughter in the process. Medicalizing herself, your daughter has done irrevocable harm to herself. But her potential to mature and develop self-awareness is still available. If and when she gets there, she will have a safe place to land. And in the meantime, you have saved yourselves. It’s a tough road, but it’s founded on love, for her, and for yourselves.

Wonderful, thoughtful... I'm sorry you have had to deal with this. Well done for 1. not being a parent who, for fear of losing their child, went along somewhat reluctantly with their child's 'transness' aka temporary mental health problems; 2. not being a parent who embraced the trans ideology, for fear of losing there ultra woke, ultra liberal friends and/or family, and then fully backed transition, damaging their child in ways that amount to serious abuse resulting in grievous bodily harm. Instead you chose the path of common sense, truth, scepticism and with a small c, conservatism and tradition. Well done. I do believe you will be rewarded for your choice in positive ways.

the way our children are led astray by trans ideology is heart-breaking.

In my own experience, I think my adult-child suffers delusions. That is, the untruths that come from his mouth ... I don't think they're lies in the normal sense of that word. I think my kid has been drawn into a world of fantasy and fiction and has lost touch with reality. ... That places his behavior within the realm of mental illness rather than straight-forward lying.

If he were lying, then he could be held accountable. As it is, I think that "influencers" -- including all the teachers, counsellors, social media personalities, doctors, and so forth -- have built and sustained this fantasy world. They need to be called to account. My son needs to fight free from this techno-medico-cult.

Yes. Your son has been brainwashed. It sounds like a cliche, but this is what brainwashing looks like. He’s not lying, he’s been indoctrinated, affirmed and reaffirmed in his delusions by charlatans in white coats, teachers, activists, and politicians…the Experts who run the gender industry. — the Influencers, as you correctly label them. Hold fast to your awareness. It’s not a theory. You’re right.

“the narrative you now tell of your life is full of lies. You truly became a liar...” This hit hard. Exactly how I feel about my daughter too.

Thank you for sharing. This is eerily the same story of our trans-identified daughter - every detail (except the lesbian grandmother). It's like these girls/young women are ready from the same playbook. Maybe they will all de-transistion together. Here's hoping.
