Hopscotchy not sure I understand.. are you asking what would make one think a child is trans in general?

@supermatchgame what triggers your concern? What makes you think this is a trans child? Not this specific case but generally? Because if you come back with stereotypes I will release the bitch.

She is talking about the severe physical impact on their bodies. Nice to know someone isn't concerned about it though Hmm

She confirms that other doctors are concerned about this, but they are too scared to speak out.

Dr Griffin revealed that she is not the only doctor worried about the ease with which young patients can get transgender medicines.

But she said that many other medical staff are ‘running scared’ because they fear accusations of bigotry, of being out of touch or, at worst, practising ‘conversion therapy’ on transgender people

Brave adult psychiatrist not a paediatric psychiatrist. Not an expert in child mental health. Therefore never has to sit with a child and parents in front of her in a huge amount of pain and distress, pleading for help because of their/ child's gender dysphoria. She doesn't have to help them or come up with a solution. It doesn't really effect her.
