      As someone who hates male attention, and I am heterosexual, so I like men, I just hate male attention and all the things a female has to deal with being single in this world. I see how it can be freeing at that age to choose to be non binary. It takes away the harsh spiritual energy. And also see the reasoning for choice as a female claiming male, it negates certain incoming energy they have to deal with and the required energy from them as female, meaning they aren't groomed for male attention by their loved ones or pursued by male energy, and they can assert theirselves with a more masculine energy that allows them to protect and care for themselves unlike how they are able to in a feminine existence. And male claiming female changes the type of energy required of them and how they put out energy, which is less testosterone and they are allowed to be softer. Do you get what I'm saying here. It isn't influence of the mind from brainwashing or some trend, it's a survival tactic. And it makes sense.

    We must continue to share Truth… I grew up gender-confused, always saying, “I was born in the wrong body. Then in 2008, I was a gay-identified man, in a committed, monogamous same-sex relationship, active in an affirming church, where we called ourselves gay Christians. Then I found myself in an ICU where the medical team classified me clinically dead after a 22-minute flatline. I experienced death, judgement and hell. When I couldn’t take any more demonic torment, I cried out in repentance, “Jesus!” and I heard the Savior say, “I am here.” At that moment, I saw with my eyes the Wind of the Holy Spirit fill my ICU and with great power, He pick up Satan and the demonic and blew them out of the room. On that day, my life changed, the redemptive Blood of Jesus cleared my mind of perversion and completely healed and restored every failing organ. Glory to God!

      I understand the fustration of your situation and I will definitely be praying for your child. However, My sister is studying to be a counselor and she is a Christian. She is not making the problem worse. But she is not allowed to tell someone who they identify as is wrong in God's eyes. Even though she believes that herself.
      Her job is to help them identify their problems and help them through it. But just because she isn't telling them they're wrong doesn't mean she is confirming they are right. She instead prays for them before and after meetings.
      I say this to inform you that there are Christian's in those positions and they are praying for those like your daughter. God will use these type of counselors and social workers

      EXACTLY!!! I'm tired of spineless Christians standing around acting like they are helpless and at the mercy of this evil!
      It's a spirit! So it's a spiritual battle that can ONLY be fought spiritually through prayer, with the authority of Yeshua Jesus Christ!
      If Yeshua Jesus is your Savior, then use the spiritual authority that He gave us!!!
      And these are strong-willed evil spirits, so stand your ground and do not be intimidated!

      @@albertascott99 I never said that it is or would be easy. It's a spiritual battle. Battles typically take at least some amount of time to fight and win. We just have to love our children enough to not give up, no matter how long the battle. But hope and positive thoughts alone do not win this spiritual battle, or any other. This battle MUST be fought in the spirit in order to be won.
      It the child lives with the parent, it's easier because the parent can enforce physical restrictions that help reduce evil influences, while the parent continues to use their spiritual authority over the evil coming against their child. But if the child does not live with the parent, then the parent does not have this advantage.
      Fighting the spiritual battle is definitely more challenging when the child is not in your home; however, it still is a spiritual battle so using our authority through Yeshua Jesus is how we win the battle for our children's soul, working with and guided by Holy Spirit, using the name and authority of Yeshua Jesus Christ. No one said that it would be easy. But it is worth it because our children are worth it!

    I remember beeing confused about my gender as young as four years... I remember looking at my female body in the mirror and thinking: "This is not, what I actually am." I grew up in a very closed up, christian home and in my country it wasn't even a thing in the secular realm at that time. So I thought, I was the only one, who felt liked that. At the age of six, when I came in the first grade, I started to tell the kids around me, that I was actually a boy. They found it funny and so I stopped it. But this feeling didn't went away. When I turned 12, I knew, I had to make choice. Even at that age I didn't know anything about gender dysphoria, but I listened at school and at my parents and knew, that my body would know start to change into a woman, no matter what I think or feel. And so I made a deal with God. He was always my best friend and so I said to him: "You made me like this, you wanted me to be a girl/woman, so you have to make me happy with it." And as soon as I ended this prayer, I realised, that I made a decisison. The decision to become a woman, no matter, what my feelings would tell me. The interesting thing was, what my father told me years after this. He said, that my mother actually come to him, when she was pregnant with me and knew, that I would be a girl. And she told to him: "I don't want a girl. Because there are bitchy." I was the first girl in the family and I was a lot, but not bitchy. But when my father told me this, suddenly it all made sense.
    Today I'm happy to be a woman. I will probably never be the "classic" woman (whatever that is), but that's okay. I don't need to be like others. I just want to be, who He created me to be.

      Do whatever you can to keep her off or get her off of puberty blockers.
      If she's old enough teach her about endochrine disruptors, look into diet and hygiene products etc. Soy and lavender and hair dye typically have soy and lavender....for example...and PEG...(I didn't get the vax because they all had some form of endochrine disruptor). Also polyester/microfiber, viscose/rayon/bamboo fabric, acrylic fabric....PVC/vinyl...all have phatlates and/or other endochrine disruptors. Prevalent in our lives. Just limit what you can.
      Start with replacing food and supplements then things like shampoo, and organic cotton underwear the scalp and privates are most susceptible to absorbtion), bedding....make your way to healthier lives and you mifht fubd with that and getting her a DBT or CBT book can helo a TON! ❤ Dialectical Behavioral Therapy is what they USED to do for kids that are confused. It's helpful for most people really. Anyone could use basic CBT. I use my kids CBT work books LOL.
      I pray that she will see the truth. But it's also our duty to guide them gently (with the fruit of the spirit), spare the rod is about not guiding them and just letting them do whatever, go wherever, be taught by whomever.
      You can do your best to be a good Christian example and having more Christian materials around them passively in your life. It's never too late. ❤
      If you can get them into homeschool that's ideal, even with a good Christian co-op. I'm in CA yet we have co-ops with Christians that refuse to give in to this b.s. it's on their webpage that they don't put up with it.
      Homeschool can be free basically for most kids, up through middle school at least I have no experience with my own in h.s. yet but many I know also could donit for the price of Internet and either a small co-op fee or tutor fee. It's easier for homeschool groups to get funding. The districts are supposed to provide homeschool funding, but they try to fight you and will often hope your kid is enrolled in extra curriculum there which is not worth it to me.
      We had our child in free charter school, I was the main teacher for my severe special needs kid, they didn't hire many competent people (like the public schools also don't) but I'm glad I was involved, Bec they suggested puberty blockers the moment I mentioned "I'm not looking forward to puberty!😅" As a half joke as a parent !!!! 😡
      Full homeschool has been the answer even academically. But Charter is better if the kids can be with trusted adults at least....and private schools also are an option, they have grants and scholarships for kids.
      If you feel it's too late or worry about removing them from public, pray on it. ❤ God tells us not to be afraid. To know risks and be wise but don't be fearful. (I know I need this too a lot). Much love to your child and your family.
