This is the story of a CONTROLLING mother who has DESTROYED the lives of many trans kids, including potentially, her own.
And all based on ASSUMPTIONS of @TaviAndPort, a service she’s not yet entered!😤
Her prejudice goes ‘mask off’ in this article...

First up, my heart goes out to ‘Angela’s’ child. It is exactly *because* of parents like this, that Gillick exists - to allow young people body autonomy and agency over their own lives SEPARATE from controlling parents!
She’s right - she absolutely HAS taken away her child’s rights. Not only that, she’s also taken away the rights of THOUSANDS of other children and their parents to make choices about what’s right for them!
And all because she can’t handle the thought of her child being trans.
‘Angela’ doesn’t give a damn about the rights of parents! If she did, she wouldn’t have taken away the rights of parents SUPPORTING their trans kids! 😫
What about those parents? The ones who have sat on suicide watch while their child counts the days to getting medical help?
Let’s be absolutely clear here - The reason she didn’t tell her child, is because she knows it would absolutely DESTROY her relationship with them. She wanted to go behind their back to exert CONTROL over her nearly adult child, who legally had autonomy over their own body!
