I don't get why she didn't just take the toys away from him. If him playing with dolls was such a problem, why not emphasize more masculine interests instead of putting him on puberty blockers? Why is that the go-to option for so many mothers like this?
Because that's doing the best thing for your child. Aka parenting. A whole lot of people don't actually think through the consequences of having children, or how hard it is to be a parent and not your child's friend. Setting boundaries is hard for everyone and I imagine it gets a whole lot harder when the person you're setting boundaries for throws temper tantrums. At some point you just want the screaming to stop.
