A recent wave of discussions has emerged surrounding the treatment of transgender youth and the practice of gender transition procedures. Criticism has been directed at newly proposed gender identity legislation by a provincial government, which Mayor Jyoti Gondek has labeled as an infringement on human rights, including the rights of trans kids and supportive parents. Concurrently, new research based on NHS data suggests that transgender individuals are more prone to long-term mental health issues. RepMcCormick has raised ethical concerns and potential long-term negative effects on children's physical and mental wellbeing due to gender transition procedures. In the UK, support for child trans surgeries has significantly declined, with DC_Draino referring to the procedures as 'barbaric mutilations' and mentioning that lawsuits are destroying this industry. The narrative of transgender activists encouraging transition to avoid the risk of suicide is being questioned for its potentially dangerous implications by KoenSwinkels. A New York Times article on detransitioners has sparked further debate, with claims that the 'always affirm' model has had detrimental effects on many children. The article is seen as a turning point in the public discussion by LevineJonathan, and has been cited by several commentators, including charliekirk11 and VictorJoecks, as dismantling the left's narrative on transgenderism. BillboardChris has also claimed that post-transition suicide rates are significantly higher than those of peers with similar mental health issues, and MostlyPeacefull describes the situation as Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy.

To all of the lying media and left-wing political parties who say children will die if we don’t transition them. Suicides go up after transition. Way up. 20 times higher than their peers with similar mental health issues, and 40 times higher than the general population. Your… https://t.co/31DvwDtiw6
The New York Times — The New York Times! — is now exposing the blackmail used by pro-trans radicals to trick parents into mutilating their children. Clinicians tell parents that if they don't rush into hormones and surgery as quickly as possible, their child will commit suicide.… https://t.co/OnN2s1CGNU

Transgender activists tell parents it's better to have a transgender child than a dead child. Seems dangerous to plant this idea in children's minds, that it's common for their peers to commit suicide if they can't transition. Could very well become a self fulfilling prophecy.
