"Rapid onset gender dysphoria" is just a fancy euphemism for peer pressure. It isn't an actual, objective, organic syndrome, and should not be treated as such.

These parents made the right decision by removing the girl from the public school system.
But... they should have done that EARLIER.
As in, "first grade"...
