This is, yet again, evidence that Putin exerts some kind of control over the Trump administration. There is no way around it.

These are hard and possibly rude questions to ask, but I thought the nyt had a reputation for being obnoxious about trans people.

I'm also curious as a listener why it's so important to get this care at a young age - it's worth exploring why it's so hard to wait til 19. I didn't transition until 26, most ppl don't get to transition before puberty. So why can't today's young ppl wait?

If there's anything missing, they could have gone more in-depth on the consequences of not getting transition care. The parents they're profiling clearly understand it, they're so motivated to get this care they are considering moving to another country to get it. Why?
