'Child abuse': Texas officials investigating case of 7-year-old boy transitioning to girl in defiance of father's wishes

Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said that two government departments are investigating after a jury returned a verdict against Jeffrey Younger, who was petitioning for full custody of his son, in part to avoid his ex-wife’s plan to infuse him with puberty-blocking hormones.

Abbott waded into the controversy surrounding Monday’s verdict, which gave Anne Georgulas sole custody of James and his twin brother, Jude. Georgulas, who has been telling her son he was a girl since he was 3, supports giving hormones that would block his adolescence. She also wants the court to mandate that the boy's father call James “Luna.”

“FYI the matter of 7 year old James Younger is being looked into by the Texas Attorney General’s Office and the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services,” Abbott said on Twitter Wednesday night.

Instead of hormone blocking infusion, what about a cap ?

7yo should have no say. It's up to the parents until they're 17

This is not a 7 year old's decision........they don't think like that. His parent is to blame here, if you want to call that kind of influence a parent.
