Were the subjects of the study the kids or their parents?

It’s parents perceptions of this ... could some have missed markers of trans in their kids early years ? Sure. ALL of them though ? Beggars belief. ROGD was never been observed 15 years ago. It seems an entirely new phenomena

Kids hide things well when they think their parents won't accept them. I know grown ass people who are on hrt whos family still don't know. It's something that is ignored, dismissed or not noticed for many reasons. I had to come out as bi 3 times before my mom realized I was bi.

They are trying to shed light on this — if some trans ID’d kids are caused by social contagion. Not ALL. SOME. If true, The kids claims here are less valid than the parents actually. Would an aneorixic kid deny an eating disorder ? Yes probably. Doesn’t make it bad science.

Brian, thank you for your reasoned voice on this. You may find this interesting, by
@PsychRabble . The hysteria around Littman's study, and the concerted effort to discredit it (when she herself called for more study on the matter) is so unnecessary.https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/rabble-rouser/201903/rapid-onset-gender-dysphoria …3 replies 1 retweet 11 likes -

You've been more reasonable
@econbrkfst . But in general, there's been an effort to tear down what Littman HERSELF characterized as preliminary vs. realizing there might be some truth in her work. Agree w/you that certain players have created hysteria in the opposite direction.2 replies 0 retweets 1 like -
Replying to @4th_WaveNow @econbrkfst and
Most critics get stuck on "It's just parents! " It's ironic coz Littman agrees "just parents" aren't enough, but it's disingenuous to pretend none of the new crop of detransitioners fit her description. Just because SOME parents might be wrong doesn't mean they all were.

Right now you're talking to 4thWaveNow founder. My daughter happens to have fit the "ROGD" profile by her own measure. We don't know much about this population. We need to know more. It's in EVERYone's interest (trans or not) to avoid "false positives."https://thevelvetchronicle.com/path-of-desistance-childhood-interrupted/ …

By the same token, some of this pop ARE going to persist & seek transition, & their parents will have to cope. I've seen you point that out, & it's a fair point. Even if it's a tiny percentage (no one knows how many yet!), they also matter. This is why study is urgently needed.
