A woman from Scotland has flown to Miami to have her 16-year-old gender-confused child's healthy breasts removed. She, allegedly, was initially booked in a few days before the child's birthday but rearranged the date as she feared being arrested

It’s illegal to remove a child from the uk for fgm. How is this different? 😢

I just can’t contemplate how anyone can do this. My 14 yo asked for puberty blockers and I said I know puberty is shit but it stops. What you are asking is equivalent to chopping off your leg because you hate it NOW. She totally grew out of it after a few hoodie years.

How can the future grown-up daughter ever forgive her mother for this? In her almost guaranteed future agonisingly painful regret & grief how is she supposed to process this? All parents make mistakes but enthusiastic amputation of their children’s body parts is beyond fathomable

What kind of parent basically says to their child "Well you refuse to conform to societies regressive and sexist expectations of how a girl should be; therefore you are broken and need to be fixed."
I just can't 🙄

We need to start figuring out how to reach out to these parents in 5-10 yrs when their kids desist/detrans and the realisation hits them that they made it happen.
I can't imagine the knowledge that you actively hurt your child and there's no going back.
