Conversion Therapy is neither a therapy nor a way of changing how someone is born. It is torture of children and the US Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled  that torture of children is Unconstitutional.  Mental health associations have stated it does not work. That is not conducive to a healthy mental health. That being gay, lesbian, transgender or other labels given to gender identifications and/or sexual orientation is not a mental illness.  Being a victim of Conversion Therapy may be the impetus for a human being developing a mental illness. 

Conversion Therapy is a fraud used by some less than professional therapists to obtain money from unaware family members.  Included in the ban of Conversion Therapy must include so called Therapy conducted by or un

der the approval of religous organizations or under their approval. CT is a big money maker for these organizations as they mislead families to think it will stop their child from being gay. These groups are swindling money from families. This behavior should never be endorsed or licensed by the government.  

Our children are to be treasured and protected and allowed to mature as healthy human beings.  They are most precious. Please protect those who cannot protect themselves and allow them to develop to be the best they can be and to live their lives as their true selves. Please all forms of Conversion Therapy.
