I found this post from Facebook I made almost 3 yrs ago when one of my kids was admitted to a psych hospital due to issues he experienced bc of his father transitioning. I am shocked it survived facebook that long.
I need to say something, maybe some people won't like it. Then block me, unfollow. Whatever. Honestly, don't care.
The destruction of the father becoming a woman doesn't ever seem to end. It is exhausting. Just when one wave is over another comes. Dealing with children who are influenced by a parent who lacks moral authority, who makes an idol of himself, and whose feelings are first above all else is a recipe for confusion and disaster. Never mind the children lost their birthright to a father and a mother. A child does not have the means to process this nor the vocabulary to express the grief and confusion it causes. They cannot express the betrayal or pain without feeling they betray the person they still love and who they feel is still a part of them. Confusion and self-loathing and anger is what sets in. The resulting depression and anger is enough to engulf an entire family in one child's rage, but two or three? Add to that the narcissistic attempts at triangulation against the parent trying to save the anguishing children. Transparents hurt their children. I am so sick and tired of the reckless indifference in our society and the lack of common sense.
Think it through, what would school be like if your dad was trans and wanted to come up to the school to your activities. What would a simple hug be like when your dad's breasts rub against your chest? What activities would you no longer be able to enjoy with your dad? Golfing from the men's tees? None of it is the same when you can't even call your dad "dad" and they have changed their appearance.
All of the indifferent people who say "at least he is happy now" or "it happens" or any of these careless and insensitive thoughtless platitudes can shove it up their thoughtless anal orifices as far as it will go. Typically, I am nice about this, but I cannot be anymore. Just shove it. All media pushing this transgender narrative can shove it. Bruce Jenner can shove it up his old wrinkled and botoxed butt for making transgender and transition household words!!! All the people pushing the lie on kids and families can shove it up theirs. "It happens"? At least they are happy? I am the one holding a kid at night sobbing. I am the one dealing with a second child with suicidal ideation. I am the one dealing with rage when a child cannot process grief from the loss of a father who essentially murdered himself in front of his children by transitioning. How much sleep have any of these idiots who utter "at least their happy now" ever lost? How many times have you held a child sobbing because their dad would rather wear a dress than be dad?
I am so effing tired of the sympathy for the trans, they made a choice, a series of them. And while some compassion is warranted for anyone who has dysphoria, the narrative is all wrong and leaves no room for dissent and compassion for the families hurt by this...the children are forgotten and the parents and step-parents cleaning up the mess left are waging a major war against the narrative and against a machine of lgbt activists, lawyers and an indoctrinated body of psychologists, doctors, and other professionals when it comes to getting help for our children. Every step of the way it is a battle and if you don't have the cash to fight this machine then be prepared to just lay down.
One thing I have not done is lie down. I will not lie down. I will continue the fight for my children. Please pray for my children and my family as we wage this battle for their mental and emotional well-being and pray for their future that it will be in line with God's will.
