Attorney General Bailey Sues Missouri Provider for Giving Puberty Blockers to Minors without Mental Health Assessment
Quote: 'Attorney General Bailey’s lawsuit notes that during the hearing in defense of the SAFE Act, Southampton’s own witnesses “acknowledged in open court that providing these [gender transition] interventions without a comprehensive mental health assessment is contrary to the medical standard of care.” Southampton’s own witnesses, despite supporting gender transition interventions, agreed that no person should receive those interventions who has not undergone “a comprehensive psychological evaluation.”'
I think gender "transitioning" of minors has now been banned in Missouri. As I understand the story, the lawsuit is saying that the transition procedures done did on minors when they were allowed did not even meet basic standards as far as performing comprehensive psychological evaluations of prospective transition patients.
