Stonewall's youth pack also contains a quote from a child who says that anonymous online fora are the only places they can find friends and presents this as a benefit of youth internet activity (where anyone can be anyone, including an abuser).
Add this to the Allsorts guidance pack, which:
*Recommends allowing confidential disclosures by gender-questioning children, thus creating a safeguarding loophole through which an infiltrating abuser can gain control of a child.
*Disavows the need for multi-agency input into work with gender-questioning children, thus creating a safeguarding loophole which reduces checks and balances on infiltrating abusers.
*Recommends withholding information from parents of gender-questioning with PR (legal parental responsibility - PR can be given to local authorities if parents are abusive, but the guidance means normal parents, not abusive ones), thus creating a safeguarding loophole, which makes it easier for infiltrating abusers because parents are not aware of what is going on with their child.
*Recommends socially transitioning gender-questioning SEND children at school without informing their parents and even if other professionals working with the child disagree.
Now this.
WHATEVER THESE PEOPLE THINK THEY ARE DOING, THIS ALL DIRECTLY MIRRORS ABUSER TACTICS. IT IS MORE THAN DANGEROUS: IT IS CATASTROPHIC.
