American College of Pediatricians Condemns Child Gender Transition | Doctors Speak Out

Dr. Jill Simons, pediatrician and executive director of the American College of Pediatricians (ACP) has issued a fiery statement condemning child gender transition, along with a coalition of pediatricians, health policy groups, and conservative organizations. This coalition, known as "Doctors Protecting Children," is calling on medical professionals to stop promoting transgender medical treatments for children. In their declaration, the ACP and allied groups urge mainstream American medical associations, such as the American Academy of Pediatrics, to abandon support for "gender-affirming care" for transgender youths. This declaration has sparked a heated debate within the medical community and beyond. Join us as we examine this controversial issue and explore the complexities of providing medical care to transgender youths.
