1) Stop trying to confuse kids.

2) Stop trying to convert kids to some warped made up ideology.

3) Get naturally confused kids professional mental health if they can't get through puberty like we have forever.
Then please reveal to us just what the heck is driving leftist school teachers to teach little kids they were born of the wrong gender? What do leftist teachers expect to gain in successfully teaching a boy that he must become a girl? Will those teachers be handsomely rewarded for it with a big cash payoff? $10,000? After all, it's said just follow the money.

This from personal family experience. Just getting help isn’t enough. Uncle had issues. Attempted suicide. He got counseling and medication. His wife and adult daughter said he was great. He stopped taking the medication because “they didn’t want him to know what was really going on around him”. He set fire to the home in another “attempt” to kill himself. He was on the front porch smoking a cigarette when the fire fighters arrived. Wife left him. After jail for arson he went back to self medicating through alcohol and weed. He was 63 when he was riding his bicycle after dark and killed when a car hit him on a road that wasn’t lit. Another uncle (brother of one killed) had gotten help and was fully clean and sober until melanoma took him. You can send an addict to rehab and you can send someone with mental problems to counseling but if they don’t want the help then they are t going to get better.

And leaches used to be the treatment for a variety of maladies.

Shock therapy..... lobotomies.....

Odd how those who want people to "trust the science" seem to forget how often science gets things wrong.

Is it mental illness to do permanent changes to your body through chemicals and surgeries as a minor, because you think you are something your DNA says you are not? These changes could prevent having future children, never being able to climax, and musculature differences including removing of private parts.

Democrats don't just celebrate it, they encourage it. Biden was out there telling parents to affirm their kids.

If that is not mental illness like it had been considered up until Democrats demanded it be changed recently, then is pretending that you are a different race a mental illness? What is the difference between the two? DNA says otherwise in both. Race is supposedly a man made construct according to liberals, so why can't race be fluid?

Thread Title: Mental Illness Should be Treated not Encouraged.

In the situation at hand, some voters may have been unaware of Joe’s condition when they voted for him. I wouldn’t label that ‘encouraged’. More a case of folks being suckered by a cover-up media.

The media has a history of covering up or downplaying Democrat health issues from Biden to JFK to FDR.

That requires the individual seeking treatment.

You know who was really punished? The kids and teachers that were killed because a person had easy access to weapons that did not even exist 100 years ago and were much harder to purchase 30 years ago.

They were the real ones who were punished.

With all of the requirements placed on schools, how do they even find the people to work there for the pay?

But yes, treatment should be encouraged and more available.


Did you know that the number 1 provider of mental health services in the state of Texas currently is the county jail system? They rank dead last(50th) in mental healthcare.
Anyone can walk into any Police station or hospital or call 911 and make clear they have overwhelming emotions to harm themselves and/ or others. Mass shooters of random people don’t seem to seek mental/ emotional healthcare.

It can take years for a patient to begin to BE HONEST with a mental health professional, assuming the patient has sufficient self awareness to do so.

Mental health professionals are generally hesitant to diagnose teens because of immature cognition and emotional regulation. Regardless, if this shooter had sought help and had been honest and had been diagnosed, it would not have prevented him from buying firearms and ammo and carrying out his intention.
