Shit, I don’t think troons realize how traumatizing this shit is to kids. (Or they don’t care.)
Parents are the kids biggest constants. For a four year old, even an eight year old, the thought of your mom suddenly becoming a dad one day is pure nightmare fuel and can be traumatizing. If it happened to their friend, maybe it can happen here? Maybe mom will just disappear one day? Maybe dad will become mom?
100%.
When this trans shit finely be recognized as the mass psychosis and medical scandal that it is, which in my opinion will take about two decades or so, we will also hear the trauma stories of hundreds of people whom parents came out as trans when they were children.
Usually it's the fathers who one day tell them they are trans, and from now on they are their mother, not father. Their father is essentially gone. He will not play catch with them anymore because that might trigger his "gender dysphoria", he won't roughhouse with the kids because he is a lady now. He is not daddy now, he is mommy. He wants a card for mother's day, don't give him a card to father's day or you will trigger his gender dysphoria. Don't even mention it. Don't say you are sad and miss daddy, she may get offended and feel that you don't love her anymore. She is still the same person, she is just your mother now. You love your daddy, don't you? Well, it's the same person. They didn't go away. She is just mommy now.
They are not allowed to mourn his loss, be sad or angry, because he is right there, and behaving so will make him feel rejected. They are expected to simultaneously keep the same relationship they once had with this parent, the same feelings they had towards him, and seamlessly change their behaviour to fit their new "mother". If you are a girl, he might also crack jokes about how they might develop at the same times. If you start developing, he might actually comment on it, comparing his "development" and yours.
Mothers who "become fathers" are probably just as hard, albeit somewhat different.
This is such a huge loss, a
huge trauma. Some of these trans parents are not
so bad and are more understanding towards their kids, but many of them aren't, and it's a huge trauma regardless. We are now being told that it's all rainbows and the kids are so accepting and how beautiful it is and you see, children accept it easily, it's adults who teach them to hate... Sure. Wait till they get older and finally process what they have gone through, and would feel comfortable enough to tell, because now, in today's atmosphere, they can't. No one will give them a platform to do so even if they are ready to speak.
