Transgender Children and the Right to Transition: Medical Ethics When Parents Mean Well but Cause Harm

Acknowledgments

We acknowledge the infrastructure funding received from the Victorian State Government through the Operational Infrastructure Support (OIS) Program, as well as the support of the Royal Children’s Hospital Foundation (KCP). ▪

Notes

1 We adopt a clinical definition of “adolescent” throughout this commentary—namely, an individual who has entered puberty. As Priest (Citation2019) notes, only adolescents are eligible for puberty suppression. We use the terms “child” and “children” to include both adolescents and prepubertal children.
