This was SO wonderful to listen to. You three are so in sync. Thank goodness for Abigail Shrier. I can’t wait to take these gentle insights to my son’s pediatrician today. That stupid mental health survey…
Enjoyable interview with Abigail Shrier thank you. Awhile ago I saw videos related to her Irreversible Damage book with ROGD girls expressing their pain and regret after having top surgery. I was horrified, shocked and acknowledged some guilt and responsibility for this as a former adult trans identified male. I am compelled to "sound the alarm" as these poor young girls were expressing strikingly similar feelings to those of mine when I was young. Self hatred,social awkwardness, and bullying etc. Keep up the excellent work Abigail amd Genspect.
I deeply appreciate these podcasts. I have learned so much from them related to this gender affirmative nonsense. it is the first rabbit hole I've fallen into in a very long time.
I think there are other solutions to help kids deal with growing up ultimately to improve self-worth & self love. It is obvious that adults express behaviors that can be defined as childhood traumas due to some kind of emotional neglect (or whatever or however one wants to describe it.) A major fundamental problem comes from the child's lack of self
worth, lack of self trust (secondary to making decisions from their mind instead of their true authority (decision making process) and due to the decisions they made based upon a child's or even as babies to survive in the world and be safe. Because we don't recognize these early decisions unless we are looking for them, they run in the adult program for life and survival. These old programs - i.e. the mental decisions, beliefs & patterns of behavior - need to be upgraded.
If you've never heard of Human Design, it might be worth checking out. It is a system developed to help people love themselves and trust their inner authority rather than listening to all the noise out side of themselves. It is especially helpful for help kids know who they are and what they are not. It is about deconditioning from the conditioning that is always out there from even before birth. When parent respect each other and understand who the child is in their own design, it is easier to understand how best to relate to child, how support them being themselves.

(Child acts out)
People, to the parents: "Do something!"
Other people to the parents: "But not that!"
Still other people to the same parents: "In fact don't do anything at all"
Yet more people, to the same hapless parents: "But do something right now!"
I hate when people say everyone should go to therapy. We need mental health unawareness.
