We’re up to three kids in our family’s sphere of friends in Loudoun County to come out Trans…
The first was the big brawny boy that is a little autistic and had problems reigning in some of his emotional responses. He is currently on hormone therapy.
The second is a young girl that came out trans about a year ago, then decided that she was just a lesbian. She has now decided that she is just fluid and is currently straight.
The third is a gamer kid that had a stress breakdown the first two weeks in college. He went to a counselor and now says he’s non-binary and his name is Asran.

Mental illness meets social contagion.

There are teachers in the district bragging that 20% of their students are trans. There is no critical thinking here at all…

Bragging?

Oh well, I guess it can get worse...

Mental illness meets social contagion.
I think you're on to something. Whether it's mental illness, depression, and so forth... it seems looking to one's sexual identity is a solution now.
A permanent solution to a temporary problem, like suicide.
You can always change back, granted, but you can't undo surgery and you can't untake hormones. You can't even unchoose to be the person who succumbed to the social contagion, because of your own personal demons, and the opportunity for a facile social solution.

They're kids. Little unformed minds of mush.
Look, I have a granddaughter that's very bright. Not genius, but really bright for a six year-old. I make the mistake sometimes of treating her like she's nine or ten, until reality jerks me back.
She may be reading books that high school kids read, but she thinks unicorns are the bestest thing ever. And she can speak cat to her pet, Penelope.
In short, she's learning, she's growing and having the experiences that make her a functioning, self-sufficient adult.
Like almost all kids, she'll arrive at that destination sometime in her twenties. She, nor any other child, needs to be pushed into something they are not by a brain-damaged, maladjusted adult.

I currently identify as an incredibly wealthy tycoon who owns a live-aboard dive yacht in the Caribbean, whose every need is attended to by a harem of gorgeous women who all think I am a god. Also, velociraptors. Lots of them. Just, you know, to keep things interesting.
-
Sorry, Frank. Sometimes the velociraptors aren't nearly as dangerous as those lasses in the bikinis.

I bet you also wear a black patch over your left eye and sport a SPECTRE ring on your right hand ring finger.
Yeah, I’d be mindful of those bikini toting wimmenzes too.

@LuFins-Dad , have these kids cause you any trouble?

Yes. What’s it to you?

The whole “they aren’t hurting anyone else so let them live their lives” fallacy is so fundamentally flawed that I’m not surprised you brought it up.

Are you writing a book?
