Judge orders transgender teen placed in grandparents' custody after parents refuse hormone treatments

An Ohio judge has placed a 17-year-old transgender teen in the custody of his grandparents after the teen's mother and father, reportedly citing their religious beliefs, refused to let him undergo hormone treatment as part of his transition from female to male.

Judge Sylvia Sieve Hendon ruled Friday that the grandparents – who the teen currently lives with in Hamilton County and are more supportive of the transition -- are now allowed to make medical decisions for the child and change his name.

“It is unfortunate that this case required resolution by the Court as the family would have been best served if this could have been settled within the family after all parties had ample exposure to the reality of the fact that the child truly may be gender non-conforming and has a legitimate right to pursue life with a different gender identity than the one assigned at birth,” Hendon said in her ruling.

Sounds to me that the judge needs to be institutionalized. What a freaking WHACKO!

What do I care what someone wants to do with their body

So sad, the poor bastard should just go ahead and commit suicide now instead of wasting all of that money on hormone treatments and getting a lopadiqoffofme procedure, only to find that it is not really any happier. The Judge is ridiculous, the grandparents are ridiculous. Who is going to pay for the "yoots" hormone treatments? Make it wait until it is of the age of majority and it can pay for its treatments itself, using the sideshow money that it will receive or the money as a barista at Starbucks. I hope that mental health counseling has been done prior to the decision being made.

Just my two cents.

Exactly my thoughts, Rebel. Why can't these teenagers wait 1 more year until they turn 18? At that point if they want to destroy their bodies whether it's with hormone therapy or double cheeseburgers it is their right.
