Surge Summary: The evidence confirms the answer to gender confusion, depression and suicidal ideations is not radical, body disfiguring surgery or medical treatments; neither is it affirmation of a person’s gender disorders. There is, however help and healing available for these troubled individuals.

Jane Robbins is an attorney and retired senior fellow with the American Principles Project in Washington, D.C. At APP, she worked on education, parental rights, and religious freedom, and testified about these issues before Congress and the legislatures of 12 states. Now she focuses on the sexualization of children in schools, healthcare, and the culture at large.
In this video from last year’s Summit for Survivors of the Sexual Revolution, Robbins spoke on how the transgender movement uses the threat of suicide as blackmail to force parents into going along with their child’s transgenderism.
“There is no evidence that transgenderism elevates the risk of suicide more than other mental disorders do,” Robbins said. “If a child has talked about or attempted suicide, that child needs to be in therapy immediately, but not with a therapist affiliated with or influenced by a gender clinic.” (Alliance for Therapeutic Choice helps find good therapists, who will help children rather than simply affirm them, by the way.)
A study saying 41% of gender-dysphoric people attempt suicide was skewed. Studies from Norway and Sweden show that even after many individuals undergo transgender surgery, they still have elevated rates of suicide that are, in fact, 19x that of the general population. Find out more by watching this video.
