Would you be okay with your kids having a transgender pediatrician?

I found out my child’s pediatrician is no longer with the office we have gone to since she was born. Unfortunately all of the patients under the previous pediatrician are now under a Transgender Dr. Personal opinions/beliefs aside I don’t think they will be the right fit and we’ll be switching care.

Ignorantwoman Lol transphobes? Ok I’m sure they’ll be out there wearing the flag in barely any clothing screaming to the world that they must have special treatment because they have sexual presences as an adult with that mentality 🤣. My kids will not be part of this forced agenda where straight relationships/lifestyles are looked down on because it’s not interesting or making pharmaceutical companies $. Should my child choose to not want to be in a traditional relationship or the gender

[IceCreamSandwich]

Just seeing a couple of your replies, it sounds like what you're really concerned about is your child having a Dr of the opposite gender to her, regardless of whether he's a trans man or a cis man. You don't even think a man would do a worse job, just that your daughter would be more comfortable with a woman. That's totally understandable.

You kind of shot yourself in the foot with how you worded your question though. It makes it sound like you think he'll be a bad Dr just because he's trans, and don't trust him around your daughter because he's trans. That's obviously a much different and prejudiced reason to want to switch care.

[KittygosMeoWW]

Lol yes I would prefer a woman dr for her in general but I also believe children don’t need to be exposed to the lgbtq+ agenda and restrooms should remain separated. Which is why I asked the question the way I did. There’s a lot of delusional thoughts behind the trans agenda.

[IceCreamSandwich]

Oh, I see. Well then I don't know what to tell you, you probably won't believe that most LGBT+ people, like most any people, are just trying to live their life, do their job, and stay safe and healthy.

[KittygosMeoWW]

Lol you as well

[IceCreamSandwich]

Yes I'm also just trying to live my life, do my job, and stay safe and healthy. I'm not trans though, I'm not even any sort of LGBT+.

[HighValue]

No. Many of them are abusers and harm children. I don't want a person like that or their bad influence to be around any kids I may have. I wouldn't allow one in my house, on my property, or to be friends with me or anyone that lives in my house either.

[Smashingdoozy]

Proof?

[Apple1996]

I wouldn't even care but I get a different ped everytime I go so I'm always on high alert and i don't allow them to touch my kids or anything like that without permission.

[matchrestore]

We've only had to switch once, but then again, the military isn't making us move around the country.

[Apple1996]

@matchrestore you are lucky. The military doctors are never consistent because they also move around lol

[Smashingdoozy]

Yes. Don't see how someones gender would make their literal degree suddenly not valid

[KittygosMeoWW]

It was more so about my toddler preferring a female dr and in the long run it’s the best option. Did catch me off guard that they had a pride lab coat and a lot of lgbqt+ stuff on but I asked the question because I don’t feel like little kids really need to think about that stuff.

[KittygosMeoWW]

Wondered what other people’s opinions on the matter are.

[Smashingdoozy]

So the person being trans has absolutely nothing to do with it? You just decided to make it an issue. What's there to think about? You're not discussing the paediatricians genitalia...

[BlissfullyCurSed]

It is almost a one-in-million kind of situation tbh. I wouldn't care about a health personnel being a transexual as long as they do their job accordingly.

[KittygosMeoWW]

I have a daughter which means I would prefer for her exams to be with a woman dr and for her to grow with the same pediatrician ideally. I wouldn’t have her checkups with a man if I’m following their logic lol. My daughter is shy with men and she wasn’t comfortable either way.

[BlissfullyCurSed]

Then, change her pediatrician if you feel like that is what's best for her. You say she generally feels uncomfortable around men, and he is also a kind of men...

[KittygosMeoWW]

Yep, I will. Got curious though on how many people would switch other than myself. We were seen very fast and just got me thinking yesterday. Thanks for your answer.

[BoopBoopBeep]

Nope. Enough sane doctors out there, no need to play that game. If he was some super unique specialization, it is what it is you gotta put up with what you can get. General pediatrics? Yeah... not so much.

[Berethor]

They might try to turn the kids into another transgenders? that's why you asking that? :)

[KittygosMeoWW]

No, that’s ignorant…having put my personal opinions aside I don’t believe a trans man is the best fit for my daughters needs. Should any child be in the situation where they felt like they weren’t the gender they were born as, the opinion wouldn’t be neutral when it came to early medical transitioning.

[Squatting_Slav]

If they were a genuine human and are trans due to genuine hormone imbalances etc I wouldn't mind on the basis that their identity and persona doesn't evolve around an odd fixation on sex etc. If they were unloading her political views on her absolutely not and that goes for any doctor

[Kaneki05]

Ya know there was a time where people would switch pediatrician because the colour of said skin was black so they auto-assumed that they would hurt there child.
And one would like to say we are past that, but nope people just use that excuse with something other stereotype.
People are so dumb.

[OtterMan68]

is the doctor competent? Do you get along? Is the doctor good with kids? Does the doctor do a good job of explaining things and discussing options?

I've had the same pediatrician for years, and sometimes see his colleagues, and never once have they talked about their personal romantic or sexual life. Why would your new pediatrician be any different?

[Anonymous]

No sir, I would not.

Better go anon for this. Don't want to incur the wrath of the Woke Police.

[KittygosMeoWW]

Lmao

[Anonymous]

No. I would feel uncomfortable with that. I may be a little biassed against transpeople due to all the bullshit the LGBTQ+ extremists put online. But I have a feeling your child may get better suited help from an other doctor.

[XXblack88]

Absolutely not Unless this pediatrician is someone like Blair White unfortunately most of them are not.

[TallAnon]

Do they spend much time with those? Probably would not care

[KittygosMeoWW]

Ideally I’d want my child to grow with one pediatrician, as my daughter gets older she’ll be entering womanhood and I’d like for her to feel comfortable talking about her body and any issues that would arise with her dr. How can I except a woman that feels like a man to acknowledge them and have an empathetic view to those conversations if they didn’t like those same steps so much that they had to become the opposite gender. Also my daughter is shy around men currently so we will be switching so she’s not crying around her dr.

[TallAnon]

I get what you're saying, but I don't even remember having a pediatrician, so if she's gonna see the person like 4 times in their life? Don't really care.
But in general, don't feel comfortable with it, change it; Sure.

[KittygosMeoWW]

We see the pediatrician more than 4 times…

[TallAnon]

Huh, you get sick often?

[KittygosMeoWW]

I don’t, my daughter has certain health conditions I will not be disclosing.

[TallAnon]

Oh yeah, no worries; In that case I would definitely find someone you are more comfortable with. Trans or not, you want someone that suits you.

[rigmarole]

Nope. I wouldn't trust my children in the hands of a satanic pedophile.

[FunkyMonkee]

I don't see what difference it makes, as long as they're good at their job and aren't one of those loony lefty woke assholes that preach the shit constantly.

[KittygosMeoWW]

I have a daughter which means I would prefer for her exams to be with a woman dr and for her to grow with the same pediatrician ideally. I wouldn’t have her checkups with a man if I’m following their logic lol

[FunkyMonkee]

If she's gotten her SRS, she IS a woman, now!

[KittygosMeoWW]

Lol how would I know if they’ve had a penis placed on their body… that wasn’t part of the intro

[FunkyMonkee]

Okay so, you're worried about a trans man?

[KittygosMeoWW]

I’m not worried I’m just not interested in a trans person being my kids pediatrician.

[FunkyMonkee]

Why? As long as they aren't pushing that onto your kids. You send them to school, don't you and THEY push that shit all the time!! Aren't you afraid one of their friends will start showing them wo9ke cartoons to brainwash them? But you still let them play with those kids.
Look at this way, if they DO star pushing that onto your kids, you can report them to the AMA and ruin their reputation. Maybe you can even sue them for doing shit to your kids that a Dr. isn't supposed to do. Had I thought of that 35 years ago, I could've gotten one of my Dr.'s into trouble for that back then! I was only seeing him for a bad case of acne but, every time I saw him, he'd stick his hand down my pants and make me cough. The first time or two, I can understand but EVERY TIME? And, his office was part of a day care center in the basement of a huge church!! I wonder how many kids he did that to?

[KittygosMeoWW]

….. did not read a single thing

[FunkyMonkee]

Why not?

[HelpfulWoman]

No? I care more about how good a job they do. So you haven't put your "personal" shit or beliefs aside. Dumbass

[HelpfulWoman]

Don't worry, least my kids won't be weird transphobes with issues. Focus on your own kids, mine are fine 😘😂

[Guido]

How many ways can I say NO Chance in Hell are those wack job going anywhere near my kids.

[ChefPapiChulo]

WOW why do you hate trans people? I mean yeah it's weird, but they're human!

[KittygosMeoWW]

I have a daughter which means I would prefer for her exams to be with a woman dr and for her to grow with the same pediatrician ideally. I wouldn’t have her checkups with a man if I’m following their logic lol
