I’m blocked by them but someone posted this by them last night. Note that they are being deliberately vague, but to me at least, the implication of suicides is there.

4 deaths in 6 months opposed to one officially documented Trans child suicide in 10 years ? - something is off here.

Leo Etherington is the one I'm aware of. Was it him?

I don't think anyone wants to minimise the suicide of a child. That would be awful. They want to stop the pressure groups manipulating statistics to shore up an ideology.

Something that contravenes the Samaritans guidelines on every level.

Unfortunately that takes the form of having to look at suicide statistics.

That was in 2017.

I know of at least one suicide of a teen who identified as Trans (female to male). It was suicide. They were trans. Don’t whitewash people’s reality!

If it was suicide, surely they would say so
Yep.

It’s a report that four young people have died. There’s no info other then that, and that’s quite telling.

If they had even one suicide (formally recorded or merely reported as possible), they’d be all over it.

It’s propoganda.

If half their community is made up of people on the autistic spectrum it's not surprising, ASC is associated with a life expectancy of 40 years.

it's really difficult to get a recorded verdict of suicide.

CrazyDuchess - really? Is this particularly the case with young people? I have (thankfully) very little experience of this.

Datun · 03/01/2018 10:10

It doesn't say suicide?

It could be anything. Natural causes.

If it was suicide, surely they would say so.

CrazyDuchess · 03/01/2018 10:01

Yes... it's really difficult to get a recorded verdict of suicide..... what's your point?

Lonelytree · 03/01/2018 09:59

Yeah they don’t have any concrete stats so they’re just resorting to this now. I hope 2018 is the year that the transing of children is finally exposed as child abuse.
