They Grow Old So Fast

My 15-year-old son started feeling nauseous and “a bit off” a couple of weeks ago. He skipped dinner and headed to bed early, but the next morning he still wasn’t himself. The nausea had lifted but it was replaced with sweats and hot flashes.

It couldn’t have been something he ate because we’d all been eating the same food, and it would be bizarre if he’d caught anything because my house has been on a pretty strict lockdown for weeks, due to the coronavirus pandemic.

It was when we started googling the symptoms that the penny dropped: my son was going through menopause.

    1. Best title, but most evil story! People are fuched, just fuched. How a parent can do this evil to their child is just baffling. However, not only do they do it, they crave attention for doing it.

      Our entire values systems has been inverted, it is only a short matter of time for this shit to all come crashing down.

        Can’t happen soon enough.

      2. Phew! I am SO GLAD to hear it was only menopause. My first thought was he>she is suffering from Ovarian Cancer

  1. I understand the feeling, I was so proud when my son got two new tires and a paint job and I sold him for $13,000. Now some people keep insisting he’s not my son, he’s a Yamaha motorcycle, but we don’t listen to those haters, we know they’re just unable to handle the specialness of the relationship my son and I have.

  2. The puberty blockers worked and now she will be sterile before she even got a chance to be a woman. When and if she turns 25 she will want to have kids but instead of adopting she will demand that the state pay for expensive IVF treatment.

  3. What happened to “Let kids be kids”? Support your 15 year old through menopause?

    1. In this article, “Let Kids be Kids Again: Their Future Depends on It”
    From 2009 to 2017, major depression among 20- to 21-year-olds more than doubled, rising from 7 percent to 15 percent. Depression surged 69 percent among 16- to 17-year-olds. Serious psychological distress, which includes feelings of anxiety and hopelessness, jumped 71 percent among 18- to 25-year-olds from 2008 to 2017. Twice as many 22- to 23-year-olds attempted suicide in 2017 compared with 2008, and 55 percent more had suicidal thoughts.”

    2. In The Left’s War on Gifted Kids – “Eighty-three percent of American adults believe that testing is appropriate to determine whether students may enroll in special or honors programs”, and yet “Local progressive activists have found a cause even more unpopular than “Defund the police,” and are pushing it with even greater vigor”.

    Maybe if these kids had parents instead of custodians they would be less depressed.

  4. The sane thing to do for the “gender dysmorphic” would be to counsel them to accept themselves the way they are as nature or god made them.

      1. Going for the joke, or do you really want to kill the weak minded? Eugenics will work this time because… (I really hope you’re going for the joke)?

          1. There is no irony font. Just like the UnMe faker can pass as the twit, it an be tough to be certain of the veracity of what someone else says.

            Those from whom I have read many posts I have a better chance of knowing. If BA or Kenji had said it, for example, I’d be certain on which side they fell. Ditto if Allan S had.

    1. 95% of MtF and ~100% of FtM dysmorphics were sexually abused as children or adolescents. The dysmorphia is a self-destructive coping mechanism for the rape trauma. Start there.

      Unfortunately, that ratio is steadily dropping for FtM due to social contagion and the general tendency of teenage girls to do horrifically self-destructive things to feel like they’re part of the herd.

      1. I would dare say that 95% of ALL people have been sexually abused as “children” (pre-18yo) … some by BAD/EVIL adults … most by their peers. Except for extreme cases … I don’t believe child sexual “abuse” is always abuse … and is not a lifelong crippling event.

        Confession: I was sexually abused. When I was approx. 5-6yo living in Sacramento, we lived at the edge of a new housing development. We had free run of the neighborhood and routinely wandered around construction sites of the new homes. I recall being in a house with a local older kid (approx. HS age). I remember him dropping trou … telling me to do the same and he played “super weenie” (??) and probably fondled my junk. I told my parents who dealt with the kids family and I never heard of it ever again. I was too young to think much of it one way or another. Although I distinctly remember him playing “super-weenie” … hahaha ha … I’m so ooo oh messed up … hahaha ha

        I tell the story, because it didn’t turn me gay … or trans … or anything. It’s barely a hazy memory. I remember much MORE about my alcoholic father during those years of my life. No, he wasn’t a sexual abuser of me … but I remember my mother bundling us up in our pajamas and driving to bars at night to look for him. That didn’t destroy my life or wreck me either.

        I don’t much care for “victimhood” for any reason whatsoever. Victimhood IMHO is a “choice”. Yes, I know not everyone has the same mental toughness and resilience as I do … but everyone can train themselves to “get over it”. To not allow themselves to be crippled by circumstances. Be resourceful. Be positive. See: Elizabeth Smart

        Ya wanna know why there is a surge of Transgenderism? Because we live in the end days of a steep cultural decline. And the trans kids parents are certifiable twits who are willing to sacrifice their own children … because it’s become “fashionable” to do so. The parents who do this should be jailed and lose their children … if we lived in a JUST and SANE society.

  5. I look at this a little differently. In 10 to 15 years the freakshow will be a wonder to behold. Joseph Conrad called it, the fascination of the abomination.

  6. “Imagine reading this sentence to a person from a century ago and trying to explain our messed up world”

    Imagine telling people who passed away 10-15 years ago.

  7. I am sad that this comment contributes, even in its inestimably small way, to the recognition these pathetic attention whores so desperately seek.

  8. She can call it her son, she can even believe it’s her son, but the reality will always be, she’s her daughter. Sterilized, mutilated, brainwashed but still a female nonetheless. “Sex change” is an oxymoron for humans.

    The time will come when she will realize what’s been done to her, and then what? Suicide? Imagine how proud Mom will be then.

  9. And there I was thinking it was one of the latest side effects of the mRNA vaccine nanoparticles that wind up in the ovaries and brain.

  10. CAS can take your kids away for letting them play unsupervised, but if you want to mutilate and abuse your kids, its fine.
    Our society is worse than Islam, by a long shot.

  11. People just have to admit that the world is going down the river in a handbasket.
    The insanity is taken hold and it will be a while before things get to normal.
    From certain experiences I think that it will take a major disaster, a man made at that, to make the European types, that would include North American white thrash, to come to their senses.
    Could be an asteroid though that is rarer than human tendency toward idiocy that’s rather common.

    A shooting world war would do it.

    1. The old book had some predictions. I’m fine with those, as they definitely represent “a cleanse”.

  12. By the gods.
    Yet another reason why the medical profession should never be in charge of anything anywhere.

  13. With a mother like that the child was a lost cause before he was born.
    Heartless? Sure. Also factual.

    1. Child abuse is perfectly acceptable, as long as it is disguised as public education, or now, woke parenting. After bill C-36 is passed, everyone commenting here can be charged for “hate”.

  14. Meh.
    I propose that Insanity is contageous.
    That insanity and stupidity are the real pandemics .
    Spreading virally through out the world,infecting societies and destroying their intelligence.
    Look around you..Does it not appear as if a plague has spread?
    Formerly productive regions,especially cities have fallen into worship of the most clueless,useless and malevolent..
    Waves of strange enthusiasms sweep these demented enclaves,where weird high priests,take the place of Mayor and council..
    These strange leaders cheer as mobs burn,loot and commit murder upon the citizens these creatures supposedly represent..

    Insanity and its smart cousin stupidity do seem to be spreading..
    Unlike the poor wee “Novel” Corona virus whom 80% ignore.

  15. Kate, first I thought: “Do you have a 15 old son? And how is he going through menopause without a swift clip around the ear for malingering? Then I realized the link. My god, how absolutely brainless can people be.This story is very confusing..

    Happy and proud Canada Day to everyone.

  16. On the plus side, out of the gene pool. There will be no more children or grandchildren to torment in that family.

    It’s always mothers. I won’t ask why, because we all know.

    Who has the money to set up an underground railroad to fake deaths, and get fathers and children away from these people.

    1. Anyone else coming around to the idea that this is why you cannot ever allow single payer health care? Eventually, you will have to pay for what the activists demand. Infanticide, gender reassignment, forced sterilization, involuntary euthanasia, … .

  17. I just moved from Victoria to Cabri because I didn’t want live in a place this was accepted, and it’s much cheaper. $2000 to live in a box or $600 to own your own property. People here wave and say hi instead of giving you the finger and tell you to f*** off.
