Don't defend these terrible people. You don't have to cover for transphobia

I'm not defending transphobia. I read the news article wrong.

I thought it was saying that children who felt unsafe coming out to their parents would be given a psychologist to help them come up with a plan to deal with their family.

That's not the case, but if it was, I would possibly be supportive of that as long as conversion therapy is illegal.
