I care deeply for humanity and for our kids, so this episode is my contribution to the conversation from a clinical and scientific standpoint. Gender fluidity is abnormal and should be approached as a clinical disorder rather than a socially acceptable way of being. Listen to this episode to find out why altering kids’ hormones is altering who they are. I also share the best approach to helping children if they are experiencing gender confusion. Parents, rather than accept this as socially acceptable or normal, find out the why from a clinical standpoint and get to the root cause of these health issues for our kids. Our bodies are smarter than we give them credit for and they are capable of course correcting if we use logic and let them mature naturally.
