Families navigate decisions about care for transgender and gender-questioning children

In May, On Point featured the first U.S. broadcast interview of Dr. Hilary Cass.
The UK-based pediatrician had just completed the world’s largest systematic review of medicalized care for gender questioning youth.
The Cass Review concluded that “for most young people, a medical pathway will not be the best way to manage their gender-related distress.”
On Point senior editor Dorey Scheimer speaks with parents about how they navigate decisions for their transgender and gender-questioning children, and the challenges they face.
