Trans kids exist, and they need your support. No, they're not getting surgeries... but cis kids and intersex kids sure are! Hopefully that bothers you, but it sure doesn't bother the people trying to take away the literally lifesaving care that trans kids need. Get a whole mountain of facts within, so you finally understand what's really going on (and why the entire legitimate professional healthcare industry is opposed to outlawing care for trans kids). Karla, the cis mom of a trans kid, joins us to discuss how you should give your kids agency!
