You know, with the holidays coming up, it could be a nice little gift to get for a young, you know, like a teen or someone heading off to college,

a little investment nut in gold that can only serve them beautifully in the long term.

So legacy, p.m.investments.com. We thank them for their sponsorship.

So we often think of child abuse as coming from mean, awful, sad, dejected parents who

strike their children, beat their children, emotionally abuse their children. And all of that does

exist. And it sickens me. It saddens me. I'd love the world to be eradicated of that.

There's another kind of child abuse going on that is, for lack of a better term, medically endorsed.

And that is this gender transition before kids become adults.

So I'm going to reference kids here now, not, you know, making life-altering

decisions about their bodies before they're adults. Kids have to pass driver tests and be 16

in order to drive. They've got to be 18 in order to vote. There are reasons for that. We know

kids' minds aren't fully developed until they're 22 years old.

They can drink at 21, but at 8 or 10 or 12, you're going to allow your child to decide that they want to change their gender, their sex,

and mutilate their own body in order to do so, suppress hormones, you know, hormone blockers,

puberty blockers, surgeries. There are some terrifying outcomes. Why is this phenomenon growing? Why are we seeing so

many more kids attracted toward this change? And why aren't that many people paying attention?

And in fact, many who are paying attention are saying to these

kids, go, we will help you. Parents be damned. Brandon Showalter writes for the Christian Post.
