I agree in an ideal world that would be the case, and i too believe it's worth working toward that ideal world. But unfortunately we are not there yet, hence my comment on puberty blockers themselves aren't a bad thing. I don't mind you seeing them a necessary evil, but i myself consider them more a necessary.
