i wish i could report you for this, it seems like quite a closed-minded thing to say, especially in a day and age when people are free to make decisions regarding their own bodies OT, i think 12 is definitely young, for physiological and emotional reasons. but the parents clearly know the maturity level of their own child, and if its something he'd been talking about for years it doesnt sound like he chose to do it on a whim. i believe the body is just a tool, to be looked after and used, and some people have the wrong gender of body assigned to them at birth. there's no reason why that shouldn't be corrected if it can be. (i used to get weirded out by stuff like this, i thought it was disgusting too. then i grew up). |
you might find it wrong for whatever reason but thats no ustification for you to term it "weird and disturbing" for anyone of any age to do it.Intolerant of opinions, aren't you?
It's NOT a close minded thing to say. All have opinions and are entitled to them. Unless Nord is going to go cause problems for this family, he's entitled to believe whatever he wants to.
When I was 12, I told all my friends I wanted to be an astromer. I had told them for years. I never became an astronomer, because it ended up passing out of my system. Why and how should a 12 year old be able to make a decision that will affect them for life? I really don't see why this was and is a smart decision. Are the parents free to do this? Absolutely. But that doesn't mean that I shouldn't be free to say they are irresponsible for listening to the whims of their child.
I just hope that if this really takes place with the child, that this is what he really, really, really wants. Because if this isn't the case, it may ruin his life.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
