Issues surrounding queer rights are deeply political, and also very important to expose to developing minds. Young people need to know about gay, bi, ace, trans, nonbinary, and intersex identities so they can accept and advocate for themselves. Hiding information on gender dysphoria from teenagers who are going through puberty is abuse. And kids also need to be aware of the discrimination and legal challenges they can face as a queer person, so they can make an informed choice about whether and when to come out of the closet. They also need opportunities to advocate for themselves online and to comment on current events, so that their voices are heard by the people in power. We cannot let adults completely control the narrative on issues like puberty blockers, we need to hear from children who are living these stories.
