No... what I was answering was the "law" portion... or maybe I just misunderstood. Personally I would take the position (because of the long lasting effects, the fact that many are now de-transitioning, none of it has long-term studies), that there should be a law until one is old enough (18 currently) to make a decision about their own bodies. When one is mature enough, as we know that many children readjust their identity over time, one can make a free choice of what they want to do with their bodes whether transgender procedures, homosexuality et al.
Less than 1% detransition and more than half of detransitioners did so because their health, financial or personal supports failed. And many of those retransition at a later date.
Further, even detransitioners who decides they weren't trans, a minority in the group, overwhelmingly say to not use their position to support ending gender affirming care, and do not regret their journey and would not want political groups putting that word in their mouths.
If anything, they want comprehensive team based medical care, both counseling, psychiatriatry, psychotherapy, endocrinology etc, to be more affordable amd accessible so people can maximally explore their options and evaluations and make the most informed consent.
Also, cis kids have invasive gender affirming care far more often than trans kids do. From hormone treatment for cosmetic reasons like lack of or too much body hair for comfort, to both breast reduction and augmentation which thousands of minors have every year in the United states alone, to circumcision, which is a routine surgery I would sooner ban, as it has actual regret much higher. Lol.
Edit: forgot forced genital conformity surgery for intersex kids which... yikes.
