This is my rant. My attempt at a cathartic retelling of a story so many know. Our daughter was – is – a wonderful little girl. Funny, outgoing and pleasant. Loving and caring, empathetic to a fault. Wildly smart in math and science, she’s always excelled academically. And like every other damn story I read, COVID happened, and so began what I sometimes call The Oppression Olympics.
In this past week, I've only just found out about my 16 years old daughter self harming and binding her chest.
I had already read irreversible damage and was quite aware of this social contagion. My daughter has autism and a chromesome duplication disorder. She started this during covid (I was blissfully unaware), I found a letter in our one drive account that she had written. It was just a letter to herself expressing her pain and saying she was binding her chest, this was in 2020, so it's been going on for quite a while.
The first this that came to mind was that she has been brainwashed by a cult.
I googled how to unbrainwash someone. I've been asking curious questions that get her mind ticking.
I asked about them and they. She explained that it meant that she identified as 2 poeple.
I said so I can say "hay, can you two please come here" when I ask her to come.
She said "no that's not right, that's saying I'm t..." And stopped to think.
So we had this back and forth discussion on how using the plural of them and they for one person is ok but I can't say you 'two'. She told me I was making things more complicated than it needed to be.
I left her to think about it.
The thing is with using the unbrainwashing approach, how the hell do I get her off the internet and away from all of her freinds who are the same as her?
I'm worried it will make her mental health worse .
Your story was very well written and I could feel the rollercoaster ride of emotions you are on and unfortunately, you and your and daughter are “stuck on” this horrific trans-gender ride. Your truth is so raw and your fear is so real - I feel very sad and worried about your daughter and for all the other confused trans kids who think they know more than their parents, who are being fed lies by therapists and doctors and coached and groomed by their teachers. This cult movement is stealing our children and people in authority are blind! I am so angry and frustrated for you and for all the other parents who are fighting this insane gender war. Do not give up! Stay strong! We must continue to band together and support each other - you are not alone! I pray that the truth is heard around the world quickly and that our innocent children will be rescued - God help us navigate this insanity of deception that is plaguing our world. We need divine intervention…
Us other affected parents are your life raft for the time being, and the knowledge that the tide seems to be turning somewhat in the UK and other countries, maybe too late for some of our families but you are not shouting into the wind. Love and solidarity to you xxxx
Have you read the book "Irreversible Damage" by Abigail Shier? Also, here are some people to follow on Instagram: gaysagainstgroomers, libsoftiktok, m.o.m.army, landonstarbuckrhe.trurhfultherapist, joinexitus, widerlenspod, teachers_for_truth, the_11th_hour_blog
I'm super confused. I commented, and another comment was made sharing some resources. I did not write them down assuming I could come back and reference them here. That post from the other person was deleted. It looks like that other person also posted a bunch of comments trying to push the envelope, and now I'm uncertain as to whether that person was banned or just had the posts deleted. Also, I couldn't tell, but it almost seemed like she wrote this "Where's Our Life Raft" post, although I'm not at all certain about that.
Not trying to stir the pot, but honestly would love to know why the original response with the resources was deleted. It seems there have been plenty of comments that spill over into frustration and that do not always use the most sensitive language (I know I've done that myself), but I'm scratching my head about the first one that was deleted.
Well, I didn't say explore her gender. Identity is very vague. What I meant was dress or wear your hair what ever way you like. I do not support name or pronouns charges. These girls need to understand that clothes and hair doesn't change their gender. That girls can have a variety of looks, feelings, interests and STILL be girls. We need to get the message across that non feminine girls are still 100% girls. They need strong female non stereotypical role models. Without that, the only message they get is that if they have non stereotypical feelings, thoughts or interests then they are trans. Kids have always experimented with their identity, and typically it was harmless (think emo, punk, goth,
hippie, etc.) Unfortunately for us this trans identity trend is harmful. In the past we understood that kids would outgrow their experimental identity. Now they are permanently damaging themselves with the encouragement of the very people who should be protecting them (doctors, therapist, teachers, etc).
Sit and watch a weekend of classic teen movies: Election, 10 Things I hate About you, Little Miss Sunshine, 16 Candles, Ladybird, The Breakfast Club, Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
Notice, idly, a few days later, how 'gender' is not a part of one single plot.
Stay strong and continue being the guard-rail for your child. Become as close as you possibly can with her - time together, gifts, shower her with love, do crafts together, organize trips with her and her friends. It's a marathon of endurance and courage. Changing the subject -- in about 2 months we are releasing a 70-minute documentary film on detransitioners - those young adults who have autism, or were gay, or were traumatized, and were quickly shoved down the medicalization path. The vulnerable youth whose parents could not be the GUARD RAIL for their kids because they were fed garbage disinformation. Our goal is to get as many decision-makers to watch it. All parents who published their stories on PITT will be getting a link to the documentary to watch it. The website for the doc will be going live around Sept 1st when we unveil the trailer. We, all parents, torpedoed by this madness must keep ringing the bell. Also, remember, elections are coming. As a life-long voting Democrat I've never thought in my life that I will live to say, "I hope the GOPs save us from this hell." But here we are.... Stay strong. Best of luck.
I have no clue whatsoever how to save your child, so this is just brainstorming. But my argument is, nothing we have yet tried has eased the targets on the backs of our kids. So we need fresh and more aggressive ideas.
I apologize, because some things are only available to the affluent. Can your job be done remotely? How about in person, but be done anywhere in the US or world? A nurse, for example, can earn a living anywhere. So can a computer coder. But it is hard to do many jobs away from where you currently live. That said, if possible:
* Get the heck out of where you live, as fast as you can.
* Put your views on other issues aside until your kids are 18+ or 21+, and get your family ASAP to a red county in a red state. (Sorry, but it's true.) There will be plenty of time to be pro-choice and anti-carbon emissions when your kids are grown. For now, FOCUS ON THE SURVIVAL OF YOUR CHILDREN.
* Move to a rural area. They are not all Neanderthals as the MSM pretends. But they DO tend to believe in family more than elites and 'experts.'
* If staying where you are now: of course, home school if at all possible. (TBH, I don't think I could manage it.) Pods can also work: a \very carefully\ vetted educator becomes full time teacher/tutor to a handful of kids with like-minded parents. 'School' can be a different home each week. Etc.
* Sue, sue, sue. Every teacher, every administrator, every doctor. Reach out to anti-cult non-profit legal interest groups. (They tend to be conservative. Sorry.) They might take your case pro bono to try to make national policy via the courts.
* Sue more. Malpractice, etc.
* Get loud. If you decide your child is 'lost' (God forbid) to the cult, then staying quiet is no longer needed to avoid making your child the focus of public attention. When all is lost, what have you got to lose?
* Make the cultists famous. A teacher groomed your kid? He or she should be a household name in your community..... Ditto for the principal. The therapist. The physician. The hospital. There is no right in the Constitution for adults to eagerly destroy your child *and not face public scrutiny*.
* Do you see how people are destroying the serenity of Supreme Court Justices' neighborhoods (violating federal laws about harassing judges) because they disagree with a judicial opinion that will likely never personally affect them? Your kids are being destroyed by people WHOSE NAMES YOU KNOW. Shouldn't they get some of that kind of attention?
In other words, do what you would do if armed intruders were invading your home to steal your children. BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT IS HAPPENING.
Ditto for the grandparents of these children. Stop playing canasta and SAVE YOUR GRANDCHILDREN.
I said something like this before, please bear with me, but this is the next generation’s version of GOTH, where the kids would act depressed, wear black clothing, dressing a lot like Wednesday Adams (TV's Adams Family) and be withdrawn and utterly anti-social.
However, the Goth kids never got drugs that were approved by adults who SHOULD know better and surgery to remove perfectly healthy body parts.... causing sterilization and a lifetime of expensive medication, also approved by adults who SHOULD know better!
Many of those Groomer Adults are making a fortune pushing this rot, while kids just plane rot!
Half of the problem is where the kids are spending their time on “Social Media” and at poorly run schools, and the Groomer adults that they deal with.
Put this question to the kids: “Are you willing to be sterilized for life and never have the proper body parts to really enjoy sex, is this a decision you are willing to make now, at your age?”
Reading your rant it could have been my family as I know so many of us have the same story. You gave me hope just knowing none of us going through this are doing it alone; though some days it sure feels like it. Here's to hoping all our kids find their way out of this hell and that the 'professionals' wake up soon before an entire generation is damaged beyond recognition. If you're in the Sacramento area I want to be your friend!

If they smell $ in it, and, if they have an ounce of altruism in them ….. one can hope:)

Quite serious here: definitely time for a class action lawsuit.
Question: does anyone know who all of this is effecting other countries?
Thank you for sharing this.
