Overview
Ā
Medical, educational, and government authorities advise us to support the āgender journeysā of still developing kids, including medical interventions with poor evidence of long-term improvement.
Ā
This would not be acceptable in any other field of medicine. Indeed, the treatments our medical authorities and Washington call ācrucialā and ālife-savingā have been banned in progressive Sweden, Finland, and Britain.
Ā
Dr. Miriam Grossman is a child and adolescent psychiatrist whose practice consists of trans-identified youth and their families. In Lost in Trans Nation, she implores parents to reject the advice of gender experts and politicians and trust their gutsātheir parental instinctsāin the face of an onslaught of ideologically driven misinformation that steers them and their children toward risky decisions they may end up mourning for the rest of their lives.
Ā
The beliefs that male and female are human inventions; that the sex of a newborn is arbitrarily āassignedā; and that as a result the child requires āaffirmationā through medical interventionsāthese ideas are divorced from reality and therefore hazardous, especially to children. The core beliefāthat biology can and should be deniedāis a repudiation of reality and a mockery of what hard science teaches about being male and female.
Ā
Dr. Grossman believes that parents know their child best; they especially know if they have a son or daughter. But currently in our country when it comes to gender identity, everyone knows better than mom and dad. Schools enable students to live double livesāPatrick at home, Patti at school. Activists tell kids their loving homes are āunsafeā when parents voice doubts about the childās new identity. For refusing to see their son as their daughter, parents might be reported to protective services, a development that can lead to a familyās destruction.
Ā
Lost in Trans Nation arms parents with the ammunition to avoid, or, if necessary, fight what many families describe as the most difficult challenge of their lives. Parents will learn what to say and howāat home, at school, and if necessary, to police when they appear at the door.
Ā
āDonāt be blindsided like so many parents I know,ā warns Grossman, ābe proactive and get educated. Feel prepared and confident to discuss trans, nonbinary, or whatever your child brings to the dinner table.ā Whether itās the ātrans is as common as red hairā claim, or the āIām not your son, Iām your daughterā proclamation, or the ādo you prefer a live son or a dead daughterā threat, says Grossman, no family is immune, and every parent must be prepared.
Ā
No child is born in the wrong body, Dr. Grossman reassures us, their bodies are just fine; itās their emotional lives that need healing. Whether youāre facing a gender identity battle in your home right now, or want to prevent one, you need this book to guide you and your loved ones out of the madness.
