Just in case you think Rand Paul’s questions to Levine about forcing parents to medically transition kids are bonkers, in fact using CPS and courts to force parents to comply was discussed by AFFIRMATIVE CLINICIANS way back at the 2017 USPATH.https://archive.org/details/atranskidislikeastrawberrypoptartinthewrongpackage/Puberty+suppression+symposium%2C+USPATH+2017+(excerpt).mp4 …
Parents aren’t freaked out by the prospect of getting CPS called on them for “medical neglect” for nothing! @4th_WaveNow has been documenting these clinical discussions for yearshttps://4thwavenow.com/2017/02/25/reportable-trauma-us-gender-docs-train-judges-call-cps-on-balking-parents/ …
I hope if you don’t get why there are so many ppl getting worked up about minors medically transitioning you will give that 1st link a listen. Imagine yr child goes into inpatient care for anorexia and the clinicians begin a campaign to pressure you to begin them on blockers.
If that sounds like a surreal nightmare, know that that has happened and you can hear the clinicians who led that campaign discussing their “success” in that first link. A real mom really went through that all bc she got her kid eating disorder treatment at the wrong hospital.
So yes it does matter that a nominee for assistant HHS secretary will not give a straightforward, public answer about whether hospitals should be able to call CPS for parental noncompliance with recommended medical transition.
If you don’t interact with the world of transition care for minors, you might be tempted to say “OMG what a NICHE interest to focus on.” It’s an issue that’s a lot more widespread than ppl understand. Way more families are trying to figure this out than you know.
