• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

You won't need a specific name. Just contact the child protection services and say that, for example, the Mayo Clinic is admitting to harming children: Puberty blockers for transgender and gender-diverse youth

Tell them that the link I gave you is evidence that it occurs. They'll deal with the matter from then on. Or maybe you could us the girl in this article who is named together with the hospital: https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-transyouth-care/

I won't name her in an open forum but you'll get any details you might need. Let us know the response if you could.
Is it illegal?

No. Every doctor and every medical facility in the country has been breaking the law every time. I really don't understand how they've been getting away with it...

Please don't waste your time and mine asking nonsensical questions. And don't quibble about legality. You say it's harming children. You want it stopped. Make a stand. Report it.

There are guidelines for reporting. And one is that it must be a crime. This is really simple stuff. I’m surprised that it’s confusing to you.

No, you just need to have a reasonable suspicion that a child is being harmed. The legalities of the matter don't concern you. And you don't need legal advice to contact child protection. Whether whatever is happening is a crime is not for you to decide. Others will do that.

But you knew this. And everyone knows that as much as you all complain that this is most definitely harming children, nobody has taken any steps whatsoever to back up that claim and contact relevant authorities.

Your lack of action speaks for itself.

No you don't. If I overhear someone talking about harming a child then I have to report it. Not if I have proof. Not if I know who the person is talking about about. Not if I only have specific details. Them talking about it and my reasonable suspicion that it might be correct obliges me to report it. I am legally bound to report it.

You seem to spend quite a lot of time looking for reasons not to report it.

You seem to be clueless as to how things work. I’ll leave you to your ignorance.

And as a former law enforcement officer I can tell you I wouldn't be able to do anything about it. I could do a welfare check and ask to see the child but if they refuse to let me see the child all I can do is do a report and call DHR
There's not much you can do about something someone might do

Plus, it's a legal medical procedure performed on the advice of qualified physicians with the permission of the patient's parents. It would be hard to prove abuse based on nothing more than conservative Christian moral values.

In that case there would be nothing Law Enforcement could do, they wouldn't get involved

It's not up to you to do anything except report it to the relevant authorities.

So many people are complaining incessantly that children are being harmed. But nobody is making the slightest attempt to report this harm. In fact, a couple of you are trying every excuse possible to avoid having to do so.

Why? I'll tell you. Because no-one would take you seriously.

Exactly right. Was that a light bulb moment? They wouldn't do anything because the complaint is 'based on nothing more than conservative Christian moral values' as @BCP1928 just explained.

Fair enough. You haven't been making the excuses. I take that back. My apologies.

This seems to be a small government solution: staying out of people's healthcare business as they consult with their private physicians.

Covid snitch-line.

If he were consistent I'd probably not care...but I don't think he holds any positions on healthcare that aren't pre-approved by Phizer.
