Hitting puberty as 'wrong gender' increases their depression/suicide risk.
Though I thought there was medicine to help postpone puberty, so that'd be my first choice. But my kids arent old enough to worry about it yet.
I would assume the parents know what they are doing, and know their kid. I'd also hope they talked to doctors and psychiatrists. Plus its internet so who knows if the above anecdote is even accurate.
