Andrea Williams, chief govt of Christian Concern, reacts to the long-awaited Cass Assessment into NHS remedy for kids and younger folks with gender dysphoria.
The Cass Assessment makes clear that docs and different adults didn’t inform kids the reality.
It’s not true that you could be born within the unsuitable physique. It’s not true that you could change gender. It’s not true that puberty blockers will assist kids. It’s excessive time we stopped telling kids this stuff.
The stress of an educational tradition captivated by transgender ideology prevents trustworthy, impartial scientific analysis. The idea of science is the should be pushed by evidence-based scientific analysis. The NHS and different docs should return to evidence-based drugs, not ideological remedy of youngsters in danger.
It’s now clear that the skilled prohibition of conversion remedy is dangerous to kids. This ban should finish. We welcome that the UKCP (The UK Council for Psychotherapy) has withdrawn its signature from the Memorandum of Understanding on Conversion Remedy. Different organizations should observe. Physicians can’t be pressured to undertake an affirmative strategy by the specter of accusations of “conversion practices.”
It’s time for the Authorities to utterly abandon any plans to introduce new laws to outlaw so-called 'conversion practices'.
The federal government should act to shut all loopholes in entry to puberty blockers and implement a complete ban on their use on this nation.
As soon as once more, the dangerous results of on-line pornography are revealed. Extra must be finished to restrict entry to such materials, particularly to kids.
I’m happy to see the NHS assessment all trans remedy following this assessment. Youngsters have been ill-served by an ideological system that believed that cementing kids in a false gender identification and prescribing dangerous medicine was useful.
This must be stopped. Youngsters should be instructed the reality. We’re made female and male and we can’t change that. Most kids develop out of gender confusion after they undergo puberty. Gender confused kids want care and assist and to be instructed the reality that units them free.
