JHC;884268]I'll be the dissenter. RESPONJSE, then I will be the de-dissenter

What the parents are doing is not harmless. Their daughter can't communicate pain and fear or desire. They are subjecting her to surgery and hormone therapy which cause physical pain
RESPONSE There are other "natural thing which can also couse pain which she would not be able to communicate. Another party on TV was relating the problems of her equally disabled dauchter who was experiencing menstral cramping, etc. and there is (or was)a reasonable possiblity of breast cancer due to prevelance in her family.

But I do judge this case as a deception and one that is no less offensive than abortion - perhaps even moreso. This is not a fetus, it is a living, breathing, feeling, functioning girl who is being subjected to the equivalent of medical experimentation and robbed of one of the few things that provide stimulation - her own physical changes.
RESPONSE I don't see how this can be considered experimaentatio. To me it is reasonable Preventative "TREATMENT"

Thinking about it another way, what if your darling 3 month old baby were permanently stunted in ALL growth, cute forever - would you subject them to unnecessary surgery for ANY reason? Would you give them drugs that did nothing for THEM but helped you cope? RESPONSE Apples and oranges I think they ARE doing something for her.
