Although I feel sorry for her, the problem is that often kids who want to troon out are pressuring their parents and threatening suicide because they want to transition now. They don't want to wait, they don't want to think about it and the councellors are only allowed to affirm gender identities. Questioning is basically a hate crime.
The trans train has no brakes.
It's not the fault of the kids at all. It's absolutely tragic what's being done to them. But the ones pushing for them to threaten suicide to force their parents to transition them are
adult trans activists. The ones forcing through rules and guidelines and even laws saying counselors have to affirm and that it's "conversion therapy" to question trans identity in a child are
adult trans activists. This isn't happening because kids decide on their own to manipulate their parents with suicide threats - they go online and adult trans activists tell them to do it, that they
have to, that if they don't transition
right now they'll live unfulfilling lives of sorrow and pain and kill themselves. The manipulation comes entirely from the activists, most of whom are white straight men who "identify" as women.
Trans activists have a vested interest in the existence of trans kids. Their entire movement benefits from being able to point at children and go, "Look, it's not a phase or a midlife crisis or my porn addiction! Trans is real, even children are trans!" Not to mention being able to point to them and say "How can you say trans people don't pass? Look at this child who has been transitioning medically since they were eleven years old, don't they look like a pretty girl? How could you say this pretty girl looking child doesn't belong in the girls' bathroom?"
And they get to use the shocking and tragic idea of children killing themselves to get whatever bullshit they want pushed through - "You don't think males should be able to compete in women's sports? But if you don't let this twelve year old boy play soccer with the girls he'll
kill himself!"
Amazing that liberals can typically recognize the ulterior motives involved when, say, a corporation starts supporting a social justice movement because it will get them more sales, but somehow they think the trans push for children to chop off their healthy body parts and medicate themselves into early-onset osteoporosis and cancer is completely harmless and solely for the benefit of the children.
