+
+A [[id:52380883-51c6-4736-8dfb-794ce19d54e2][transgender]] kid attempted suicide because of the political anti-trans crusade
+in Texas, citing the recent [[id:6be8abbb-a4c6-465d-be5e-4dc3ac6bf03c][Anti-transgender legislation]] and the governor's
+executive orders to investigate families providing their children with
+transition care as reasons for his attempt.
+
+After spending time in a psychiatric facility, the Department of Family and
+Protective Services showed up at his house. Staff at the facility had discovered
+during his care that he was on hormone therapy and reported his family for child
+abuse.
