DIVORCE DOES NOT DESTROY KIDS!!! I’m so sick of y’all just saying anything 😂 kids needs their parents/guardians to be happy & healthy. that does not mean they have to be together.

I am honestly disturbed by how much therapist infighting there is on this app about modalities, when we have known for years (decades!) that the relationship between client and therapist is the most salient factor of therapy efficacy

“It has been my therapeutic experience that most people, even those most accomplished outwardly, lack a core permission to live their lives: to feel what they feel, desire what they desire, and to pursue what their soul intends.

@correxbot I think you owe bradley an apology

Your child is not a possession.

Your child is not a thing that you own.

Your child is not an extension of you.

Your child does not owe you anything.

Your child is an individual, autonomous person - a full unique human being. And your job is to validate and support them.

[A.R. Moxon 🦋 @JuliusGoat]

Generally, strict parents think their kids are better behaved, but in reality they don’t know their children, or what their children are doing; they only have a relationship with whatever mask their child has learned they must wear around the strictures their parents impose.

I’m a mother of six, and a Mormon. I have a good understanding of arguments surrounding abortion, religious and otherwise. I've been listening to men grandstand about women's reproductive rights, and I'm convinced men actually have zero interest in stopping abortion. Here's why…

Ok look if your kink is being loud and wrong I’m not going to shame you for it but I do really think you should keep it between you and your other circle-jerk bros rather than subjecting the rest of us to this kind of misinformed drivel

@bellabee13 This is the single greatest response I’ve heard to anything. Thank you for your service.

@sometherapist C) we are only one tiny portion of a very long, very involved process that also includes parents, PCP, specialized healthcare, and d ) gender affirming care literally saves lives. Go ahead and Google suicide rates for transgender kids. If you don’t want those clients, refer out.

@sometherapist I don’t know if this is bait or what, but you don’t know what you’re talking about. A) very few minors have the surgery and not without years of steps in between, including social and hormonal transition (both reversible) b) only 1% of those who get surgery regret it

Idk how character references are relevant in any criminal trial. “He’s always been cool to me” is useless info. Rapists don’t assault every single person they see, and they don’t introduce themselves as sexual predators. Having friends doesn’t mean you can’t commit crimes.

NO women DO NOT have a high threshold to pain. This is gender essentialism. This is a toxic myth that makes women believe they should be able to bear more pain and not complain and they don’t. It is such a bizarre paradox where medical professionals believe that women can and should be able to bear pain and so not offered pain relief or sedatives during procedures, but also that women over-react and so when women say 8 on pain scale they assume it is prob around 3 or 4. No-win situation.

[Erin Reed @erininthemorning.com on Bsky @ErinInTheMorn]

For the first time, a randomized controlled trial has been published regarding gender affirming care.

The treatment group receiving care saw a 55% reduction in suicidality, compared to 5% of control.

I detail the results in my latest article.
