I've just seen that Barnados along with NSPCC and others have released this joint statement.

I will hold my hands up and say I have not fully understood the distinction between being considered of age to assess capacity and to be assumed of having capacity. But this information here is the kind I have seen before refer to age 12: www.amershamhealthcentre.co.uk/pages/Treating-Children-and-Disclosing-Information-to-Parents

I am not disagreeing that the much bigger issue is appropriate pathways, context, discussions and support. None of which are there currently. I was trying to provide a different take on the statement. Maybe too optimistic. I understand and agree with the deep concerns of what is happening with children. It is my main source of concern with trans ideology.
