The physical and emotional damage of allowing a child to change gender is life long , it can have consequences for the rest of their lives .
They are "children" , their minds are still developing , they have no idea of what they are doing .
just leave our kids alone fintan , when they are adults they can make those decisions but children must be protected
sexualisation of children is at the heart of the Trans lobby .
