This is so true and so close to my heart. My son was in his mid twenties when he decided he was really a woman, having left home, married, emigrated and become a father by the age of twenty and not long afterwards gone through a bitter divorce and cut off from his little son. I have no influence and no standing at all in the eyes of society. I'm seen as the failed mother who can't let go, who refuses to accept his "real" self. My beloved troubled boy that I know so well and tried so long to help and may never see again. The law is not on our side. We are on the sidelines, heartbroken, helpless.

I feel heartbroken and helpless too. I tried hard to protect my youngest child from the deception. That feeling of having no influence in society seems very unfair. We are right, society is wrong. You are not alone.

Thank you for writing the truth. If only the professionals in this country cared enough to do the same.

The professionals I met did not have the power to care. The laws have squashed common sense out of the system and created a self serving institution that has lost its way. Underneath people with power are managing a eugenics plot. Males in charge are judging that testosterone is a harmless drug.

For instance my son (biologically male) said that the testosterone had to be posted onto his sister (legally male) “urgently”. I said t is a drug. He replied no it is a hormone, he has it. So he could not understand that it might be harmful.

At this rate, testosterone will soon be available in supermarkets. There is no awareness amongst professionals that testosterone could be dangerous. Yet if we look around us, most violent acts are committed by people with high levels of testosterone.

Another example of common sense having become extinct.

Unfortunately, puberty is often only the "pre-wash cycle". Most body-medical transition measures take place when the kids from 18 can sign everything themselves. This is a very stressful time for parents because they can no longer influence anything.

No worries, I'm organizing with others to provide homeless trans youth with healthcare. We just did a holiday toy drive and got tons of makeup, winter gear, clothes, money, food, and survival gear. Next up were trying to get our hands on bulk puberty blockers. Be mean enough to your transkids and we'll make sure they have healthcare one way or the other. Have a good day!

btw, you called it a trans cult, I guess that's fair a lot of us wear all black, have chants and songs we sing together, practice rites like marching against fascism and tagging shit up, and having candlelight vigils for our fallen (which are usually brutally attacked with teargas), share common beliefs and values (although we come from and practice all different religions, have all different sexual orientations, and meet together often to share meals and plan our revenge on the world, although unlike cults we reject hierarchy and organize our efforts horizontally and through friends of friends so I guess "I lost 3 kids to militant queer unitarianism and my own desire to reject them" would have been more accurate.

Planned Parenthood has returned to its eugenic roots. I wrote them a letter months ago saying I would never give them another nickel while they dispensed wrong-sex hormones. They've strayed FAR from their mission to provide reproductive health. It's disgusting and I hope that when the pendulum swings the other way, a new reproductive health care organization that prides itself on being truly a reproductive health organization and different from Planned Parenthood arises from the ashes.

Hi Patty, Just wanted to offer this info which I've copied from my comment above... There is a Catholic support group for family and friends of LGBT persons. It's called EnCourage, and the group obviously does not support the transgender *lifestyle*, but totally supports all LGBT *people* and their loved ones, and offers lots of support to family members, as well as help in loving their kids (even from afar), praying for them, and giving strategies to help draw them gently out of the lifestyle when possible. Hope this is helpful. God bless you & yours! The upcoming new year can be a good fresh start for all of us.

I'd also like to point out that most of the gospel it never said anything about Jesus having a home. Just walking a long ass way from town to town and staying at other people's houses. Jesus was a Black homeless rafical. Probably would have provided water wine for antifa. u lot would definitely vote to ban him from camping on your sidewalk. You are all so fake

Planned Parenthood dispensing wrong hormones is a form of contraception. Eugenics.

The vulnerable youth of society are being targeted by the transgender ideology which is nothing but a deception. The intention is to encourage them to self sterilise.

Who is responsible for this?

Pharmaceutical companies? Government intent on depopulation? Nobody is taking responsibility or showing any ethical concern. Except parents.

Expand full comment

BTW, with a mom like Lynn and the generation before her, all of us decided we wanted to self sterilize because there was no way we were going to be ready to raise our own kids any time soon and we didn't want to continue the chain of abuse. That's fine though.. I had an education career for a little while, lots of kids came out to me as non-binary or binary trans. I was always super supportive of course and encouraged them use the arts/crafts materials in my room to make posters celebrating themselves which I hung in my room. One of my non-binary students 3d printed a bracelet of rainbow colored snakes. The walls were covered in paintings It was a beautiful place. Now i'm just mom to the half of Portland that doesn't have a roof, and the brilliant, brave, strong kids you idiots throw out. I find great things in the trash.

For your information, parents do not throw their children out. People like you kidnap them.

I believe nothing of what you have written. I know that children when mentally ill do not see reality as others see it. The biggest lie of all is pretending to be the opposite sex. So who is telling the truth? I know my daughter embraced the world of lies, a very slippery slope involving the invention of a false past to justify the claim she had been a tomboy. She did not need to do that as changing gender now is far too easy. All those “homeless youth” were kidnapped mentally.

When a parent is literally telling their kid who still lives at home with them not to say "i love you" and not saying it to them and basically just trying to keep them restricted to their room, almost all interaction is to either (A) chase the child around the house with a raquetball racket, (B) break the bedroom door, (C) tell them they are ugly, and then tell them to lie in order to be able to get into the Air Force and then the Navy so they can just be gone forever what do you call that?

My daughter just turned 18 two months ago and has already obtained a prescription for testosterone. I keep trying to pick myself back up and move forward after years of trying to get her to desist or at least focus on other aspects of her life and mental health, but she is laser focused on all things transgender. My heart has been broken over and over for several years but this one has me feeling more helpless than ever.

Some people just do not understand that a girl is female and t does not fix mental illness. Our daughters are addicted to the power t gives them to trample on others. The problem stems from the “male brain theory of autism” being taken literally. Girls think that because they think like a male therefore their bodies should match. Problem is we humans do not have as much power as some think. The laser focus is frightening. We used to recognise this as a warning sign of mental illness. It is an addiction. T needs to be a controlled drug as its effects are dangerous for women.

Expand full comment

That laser focus on all things transgender shows us the cult like pull it has in our vulnerable youth. A friend advised me at that time to protect myself. If we try to stop them or persuade them to desist, they attack us. Just as a person with dementia does if you challenge their delusions. Their reality is all that matters.

You are not alone in being broken hearted and feeling helpless.

Testosterone is highly addictive for our daughters who feel empowered by it. Their gentler feminine caring nature disappears. My daughter admits she seems to have ADHD. Wonder if that is worsened by the testosterone. Certainly she has more energy for walking. No time to talk to her mother or show any respect. The lack of empathy is related to the underlying autism. Not showing empathy is seen as a masculine trait, so she probably feels that she fits in better as a “male”.

Expand full comment

No, you're literally rejecting your own kid over and over every day and saying things to them that they told you were hurtful. It doesn't matter if YOU think it's hurtful, you don't own THEIR feelings. You're making the choice every day to push your kid further and further away and someday they'll stop trying to come back, or maybe they'll be like me and come back 20 years later with a bunch of anarchist hommies and a whole blog thread full of common sense replies. You don't get to choose if your kid is trans, just if you want to accept, love, and appreciate them for who they are. If you can't do that then they are better off without you. Get well.

Expand full comment

Really sorry you feel like that. Being trans is a harmful reaction to life’s difficulties. I wish society would be honest and allow people to just sterilise themselves without believing that taking cross sex hormones makes one the opposite sex. Eugenics has been around for a long time and just has a new name “transgenderism”.

Thank you Lynn for talking sense. We need to talk about what will happen to our daughters when they discover they have damaged their bodies. Rejected family might not be around to pick up the pieces. The psychiatric institutions that used to care for trans people will not care for them because being trans is now normalised. The law will say that they are not mentally ill. There will be so many of them that any health service would be overwhelmed if it attempted to care for them. Just like a pandemic, transgenderism is spreading,

Have you ever considered what the roots of the transgender insanity are? My faith (Catholicism) teaches that its modern roots are in contraception and abortion, which have almost severed the psychological link between sex (i.e., "gender"), sexual activity, and the procreation of children. I'm not here to push this at anyone, just to offer it in love and respect, as an idea to reflect on.

Also, there is a Catholic support group for family and friends of LGBT persons. It's called EnCourage, and obviously does not support the transgender *lifestyle*, but totally supports all LGBT *people* and their loved ones, and offers lots of support to family members, as well as help in loving their kids (even from afar), praying for them, and giving strategies to help draw them gently out of the lifestyle when possible.

Sadly true, the insanity stems from the disconnection between sex and procreation.

Enjoy life without your kids in it, which was completely optional on your part and not required to complete any of your own personal religeous objectives.

Which part? Did God put a gun to your head and say you had to reject your trans kids and be hurtful to them or you would go to hell?

Also separating procreation from sex through contraception and abortion is a fundamental feminist achievement effecting all areas of life from home to work and enabled many more women to peruse careers (if an individual happens to be into that capitalism crap ), and achieve higher levels of education and happiness, you should probably know that if you call yourself a transexclusionaryradicalfeminist.

This is coercion: "assaulted with demands that we suddenly ascribe to beliefs we don’t have. Our children have a new belief system, and so we are supposed to radically alter ours in order to accommodate it.

We are told that unless we call our sons daughters and our daughters sons we will never have a relationship with them again. In other words, we have to lie, or it’s curtains, mom."

As a father, I can't imagine behaving this abusively towards my child, or any child. To publicly condemn your own kids, and demonize their medical care like this... It's tragic enough on its own, but for you to also advocate for others to throw away their relationships with their children is reprehensible.

As a transgender man who transitioned as a young adult, your mischaracterizations and misinformation are absurd. No,.trans people have not suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Some transphobes claimed it was a trend or a phase when I came out 20 years ago. It wasn't true then, and it wasn't true now. Transitioning is what allowed me to become the successful adult, husband, and father I am today. I'm lucky to have a strong community where we support and respect one another both emotionally and physically. That's what love is, and what family is. I so hope your children experience that, in spite of your destructive behavior.
