Chloe Cole was 15 years old when she agreed to let a “gender-affirming” surgeon remove her healthy breasts—a life-altering decision she now deeply regrets.
Her “brutal” transition from female to male was anything but the romanticized “gender journey” that transgender activists and medical professionals had portrayed, she told The Epoch Times.
“It’s a little creepy to call it that,” she said.
Cole, who is now 18, feels more like she’s just awoken from “a nightmare,” and she’s disappointed with the medical and school system that fast-tracked her to gender transition surgery.

That doctor should lose his license and go to jail.

When these people opt for surgery, cannot help but wonder if they will feel a certain level of pain and discomfort for the rest of their lives due to scarring and possible nerve damage. Are they ever warned about this? I wonder how many would change their minds regarding going forward with surgery if they knew there is permanent discomfort.
As a teenager, I had an accident where I nearly lost a fingertip. It was sowed back on. I have a fingertip, but to this day it feels different than any of my other fingers.

We have traditionally recognized that children are not adults. They are not physically, neurologically, or emotionally mature enough to make certain decisions or accept full responsibility for their lives. We don't generally let them marry or serve as soldiers and the educational system slows some careers down so that we don't have 16 year old physicians making medical decisions. Further, when adults impose their choices on children like sexual activity or even adult movies, we have rightfully drawn the line and held such adults as abusive. Our children are still children. We adults are 'free' to do what we want to ourselves but we dare not loosen the moral restraints which risk the lives of the children among us - REGARDLESS of what parents, teachers, or caregivers want.

Those in charge of the school system should be jailed. Why does the school system have any say in this?

Kids at that age can't buy cigarettes, or liquor, drive a car, or vote. So why in the world should they be allowed to decide for themselves to sexually mutilate their bodies? If anything they should be gender reaffirmed according to the gender God created them as. Help them to find God's purpose for them and what His will in life for them is. God was nowhere in the process that ruined their lives.

Chloe is in line for a Darwin Award. The doctor should be in a prison line.

FTA: "And a lot of the feminist content pushed by other girls was making womanhood out to be this terrible thing.”
The war on womanhood, the war on femininity, the war on motherhood advances unimpeded by the minions of Satan. They are erasing women from the world stage. They want to turn real girls into fake boys. They glorify drag queens. They give men Women of the Year awards. They allow men to compete on women's sports teams and win their trophies. They allow two men to be "married" couples and "adopt" children and be a "family". Women are no longer needed. A totally misogynistic society is being constructed, including the intentional mutilation of women, with the willing assistance of their sister females.
We fight on two fronts; in the physical world it is crucial that any of us that know parents with children in school, that we get this information to them. The transgender pronoun affirming agenda is being rolled out into all the schools across the nation this fall, and most school districts are doing it under the table. Foremost this is Spiritual Warfare; Satan hates womanhood because we are co-creators of life along with God. It is in our wombs God knits each life. John the Baptist leaped for joy in the womb of St. Elizabeth when Mary visited with Jesus present within her womb. Womanhood is precious and needs protection. That was once understood by society when we knew God. We cannot win the political battle unless we are praying first.
In God We Trust, then MAGA

Chloe is gracious in not blaming her parents. However, they share a large part of the blame. Not only did they roll over when advised by experts, they also gave her unregulated access to social media at a young age. Social media is a poison for children. Parents must restrict access and control the content their child views.

FTA: "Her parents, though skeptical, trusted the medical professionals and eventually consented to their daughter’s desire for medical interventions, including surgery, which was covered by their health insurance policy."
It appears the parents were worn down by medical professionals they believed were "helping" their daughter. "Either you’ll have a dead daughter or a live son" could certainly guilt vulnerable parents into consenting to life-changing surgery. Parents who have insurance to pay for the "transition" surgery might want to step back and give their child the gift of time, rather the "gift" of surgery. Skepticism can be quite healthy, as this family had to learn the hard way.

Reply 4: The schools are involved because the children are separated from their parents. The children are at the mercy of the pervert “teachers” daily for six hours.

I really hate it - - when even conservative outlets use the word "gender" - - instead of "sex."
Why is nearly everyone allowing the communists to define and re-write our language?
Get with it, folks! Never - - ever - - use the word "gender" - - unless you're giving a grammar lesson. It's SEX - - not GENDER!

Today people see resultant physical grotesqueries from the use of thalidomide, tomorrow the grotesqueries will be the result of the transgender craze.
