Georgia Legislator Proposes Ban for Transgender Surgery on Children

There’s no shortage of coverage from us on how transitioning children is child abuse. A Georgia State legislator agrees, and she is proposing a ban on irreversible surgical transitions of children.

The proposal from state Rep. Ginny Ehrhart would change current laws that allow such surgery with the consent of a parent,  according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. If approved, doctors could be charged with a felony.

“We’re talking about children that can’t get a tattoo or smoke a cigar or a cigarette in the state of Georgia but can be castrated and get sterilized,” she said. “The removal of otherwise healthy or non-diseased body parts from minor children would also be prohibited.”

She’s not done, her Bill,

“”would also make it illegal to prescribe “puberty-blocking drugs to stop or delay normal puberty and cross-sex hormone therapy” to minors for the purposes of gender transition.

“This form of child abuse is becoming a serious problem in Georgia and is evolving into a national crisis,” she said.””

Dr. Michael Laidlaw, an endocrinologist in Rocklin, California, says the development blockers given to children are “actually causing disease.”

The number of hormones and or blockers required to “transition” a child from one sex to the other, at least chemically, has significant complications and health risks.

Easily misguided parents and #woke ‘community leaders’ who think they are doing something useful are ruining these kids’ lives. In some cases, permanently. 

In New Hampshire, we addressed this problem by making it illegal to talk to kids about not transitioning. This prohibition includes anyone who might be in a situation to provide counseling. Which, if someone had the mind, could be a violation of religious conscience and unconstitutional if you happen to be a priest or pastor.

Or, we could take back the legislature and repeal that violation of free speech and conscience.
