Former daytime talk show host Dr. Phil McGraw took an opportunity on Tuesday to put the medical establishment on full blast, especially doctors, for all of the harm they have caused by pushing “gender-affirming care” on young children. The main reason so many in the medical field support these treatments is because they are expensive and help line their pockets with cash. Greed is driving individuals who took the Hippocratic Oath to protect and preserve life, to abandon that promise and harm the very people they should be helping. And true help when it comes to transgenderism is psychological and spiritual help.
McGraw were made during an appearance he made on “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast. While having a conversation with Rogan, the television personality and psychologist slammed medical professionals and hospitals that are pushing transgender children to transition to the opposite sex, noting there is a huge deficit of information concerning what kind of long-term negative impact it could have on them.
He started the discussion by mentioning that transitioning kids is actually a violation of medical ethics.
“It’s interesting they choose words like ‘gender-affirming care.’ You know, that’s interesting that they call it that, but really what they’re talking about is hormonal therapy or sex reassignment surgery on children,” Dr. Phil said to Rogan during the conversation. “And, in fairness… all of the major medical associations have signed off on this, Joe. They signed off on it.”
“I have never seen those organizations sign off on anything with less information as to whether or not it does long-term harm, of anything in my life. When I asked about that, when I bring that up, then they immediately label you as transphobic,” Dr. Phil went on to say, passion gushing. “And I thought that the deal was first ‘do no harm.’ And all of the European countries – Sweden, Norway – they’ve all stopped doing it because they say, ‘We cannot say in good conscience that this does no harm,’ because it does harm. If you look at the long-term consequences if someone changes their mind at 10, 11,12, 13 years old – they can’t decide which pajamas they want to wear at night.”

Here’s more from Breitbart News:
Dr. Phil went on to say that the claim that transgendering a child stops children from committing suicide is a specious claim to make.
“And their reason for doing it is, it stops this drive for suicide – that there’s a suicide epidemic. It doesn’t fix that,” he claims. “It doesn’t fix all the comorbid issues that come along with feeling like they’re in the wrong body, but yet they’re pushing this,” Dr. Phil added. “We’re going to do some shows, that are already taped, that are revealing what the real results of this are and I think people are going to be shocked that these medical organizations have signed off on this. I think they’ve just given in to the pressure.”
Rogan then stated that “reinforcing” transitioning children is a crime as kids are innocent and trusting and can be “talked into anything” because they are far too young to understand the full weight of the consequences of their actions. Heck, a person’s brain isn’t even fully developed until they are in their mid-20s. And yet, we expect children who are just barely teenagers to make decisions concerning the removal or addition of body parts, which are things that cannot be undone? If they aren’t old enough to drive, drink, vote, or join the Army, they shouldn’t be allowed to get these harmful procedures.
“I don’t think it’s appropriate or safe for children,” McGraw proclaimed.
“I think a lot of it is owing to social media platforms and the Internet,” McGraw stated providing an explanation for why there has been so many kids suddenly saying that they are transgender. “The activists, I don’t think, speak for the community at large. I think they get an agenda that they’re pushing, and I think that they really get wrapped up in this, and it gets a lot of oxygen on the Internet, it gets a lot of oxygen on social media platforms.”
McGraw concluded that there most certainly is a “social contagion” with transgenderism because it has become “cool” to be trans, but then pushing permanent medical procedures does serious harm to children.
Let’s hope parents wake up to reality and stop pushing their kids to get “gender-affirming” care, opting instead to take their kid to a mental health professional who will actually treat their illness, and church where they can find the gospel of Christ and learn to love who God made them from birth.
