I oppose the Guidance Document
 

Encouraging a child, or anyone, to be confused about their sex, male or female (yes, there are only two), so much so to allow any genital or bodily mutilation is ABUSE and is morally unconscionable. Any such person needs true empathetic help and counselling. Countless research shows that children, if allowed time, will indeed grow out of their confusion and embrace the sex in which they were born. The problem facing our society is not "conversion therapy," but acceptance and approval of mental illness as "normal." Stop the madness.
