Transition is a trend that is doing serious damage to our children, our families, and our social fabric. Gender dysphoria is a mental illness and should be treated as such. A teenager going through the ravages of puberty will not be any happier going through puberty as the opposite sex. If a person over the age of eighteen (actually, since you can&#8217;t drink or smoke until you are 21, shouldn&#8217;t you have to wait until 21 to mutilate your body?) wants to undergo a sex change, okay, but they should understand the long-term ramifications before they do. We have all heard the stories of the thirty-year olds who transitioned when they were 18 and now regret it. Those stories need to be shared more often in order to let teenagers know that transitioning is serious and generally is forever.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Monday, The Carolina Journal reported that the North Carolina House of Representatives pass HB 808.
