Yes there are some very confused kids out there for sure. Puberty can be a rough time.
There are also high rates of suicide amongst trans people who have had hormones, or had surgery. They are still much more likely than other people to commit suicide at any time.
But then people like you say that this is because they are not "supported and accepted in their new sex." Mainly because people don't want to be forced to accept a lie/delusion just because that lie is politically correct.
You still haven't explained, btw, how a person can be sure they were born in the wrong body.
You still haven't give any examples of a "male trait" or a "female trait" that would act as a marker for this.
I still eagerly await your reply. After all, you were the one who said that there is a "gender spectrum" with male traits and female traits. It was central to your argument.

Van Meter is president of the American College of Paediatricians, which is known for its opposition to marriage equality, gender reassignment and abortion.
The American College of Pediatricians (ACPeds) is a socially conservative advocacy group of pediatricians and other healthcare professionals in the United States.[1] The group was founded in 2002 and claims to have over 500 members, although independent sources report that group has between 60 and 200 members and one employee.[2][3] The group's primary focus is advocating against the right of gay or lesbian people to adopt children, and it also advocates conversion therapy.[4]
The organization's view on parenting differs from the position of the American Academy of Pediatrics, which holds that sexuality has no relation with the ability to be a good parent and to raise healthy and well-adjusted children.[3][5][6] ACPeds has been listed as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center for "pushing anti-LGBT junk science".[4] A number of mainstream researchers, including the director of the US National Institutes of Health, have accused ACPeds of misusing or mischaracterizing their work to advance ACPeds' political agenda.[7

And? No surprise that people that don't go with the current sjw infested narrative are labelled as a 'hate group' . Being labelled by the SPLC means nothing these days.
Instead of attacking the speaker, watch the video and try addressing the points raised. Better yet, give us some evidence that puberty blockers should be given to children and it's not harmful in anyway. At what point do you thinks it's acceptable? 50%? 60%? 70%? Is there any other accepted medical practice where the potential risk outweighs any potential good?
Ahahaha so a widely discredited conservative campaign leading one off Dr with butchered stats vs the rest of the medical community is your basis of arguing with me. And then you act surprised I don't effort post in reply.
He's just spending all his time writing a reply to the other questions we asked him earlier.
Like which "gender traits" were an indicator of being born into the wrong body/wrong sex.
It must be at least 30 pages by now!
I've already replied to this.
Unless you up your quality of posting goes up no one who has asked deserves a response from me. Please improve or stop expecting any kind of effort in my replies to you. As I stated before, you can do you own research into the topic of sex vs gender.

"where the potential risk outweighs any potential good?"
Any operation where you are anesthetized?
Edit: Actually, I read that wrong.
OK this is the last time I will ask. Just the facts.
You said there was a spectrum of gender traits as advocated by "Mermaids".
You said that expressing gender traits at the wrong end of the spectrum is an indicator of possible transgender identity.
You must therefore have some idea of traits that exist at either end of the spectrum.
That is to say, male gender traits and female gender traits. Such that boys should not normally exhibit female gender traits and vice versa.
Please could you give an example of some of these traits. That is all I am asking from you.
Moreover I do not believe this is an unreasonable request, in the context of this discussion and opinions previously expressed by yourself
If I am not worth of an answer, say so, and I will not ask again in any case

This is all very ticksy, because it is society that determines gender stereotypes.
I probably shouldnt jump in without reading the full thread but maybe he meant sexual identity (as in biological status as males and as females).

As I stated before, it's a very complex issue and you can do you own research into the topic of sex vs gender.
Because you've asked politely and articulately and aren't the moron linking obscure crock pot loons on youtube I'll give you a starting hint.

Don't confuse can't with won't.
I'll leave you with the British experts rather than your low tier youtube link filmed at the Teens4truth meet up

The word on the grapevine is Yaniv's house was raided by police last night due to an offensive weapon (a taser) that was brandished on stream during the Blaire interview.
It wouldn't at all surprise me, Yaniv seems pretty unhinged from all I've seen.
In fact, a quick google brought up some results:

I only caught the back end of the interview so I missed the taser wielding.
They should confiscate his laptop. I'm sure they'd find some child porn on there.
