Who is the American College of Pediatricians?

Let's clear up the confusion about who the American College of Pediatricians is versus the American Academy of Pediatrics, and their positions on transgender youth. Notes: Position Statement (with ZERO documentation about those positions) from the American College of Pediatrics http://www.acpeds.org/the-college-spe... Investigative article about the ACP that cites membership numbers and their practice of citing research about LGBT youth that is 100% contradictory to their own statements http://www.citypages.com/news/univers... American College of Pediatricians ( less than 200 members ) About Us page http://www.acpeds.org/about-us American Academy of Pediatrics ( more than 64,000 members ) About Us page https://www.aap.org/en-us/about-the-a... American Academy of Pediatrics Position Statement the care of LGBT youth http://pediatrics.aappublications.org... Point by Point information... XX and XY chromosomes don't tell the whole story http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/... biological nature of gender identity http://www.bu.edu/news/2015/02/13/rev... Gender Dysphoria is not a mental illness http://www.dsm5.org/documents/gender%... Puberty blockers do not treat puberty as a disease and are safe http://www.cbsnews.com/news/transgend... Desistance rates quoted by the ACP were from studies that did not separate gender non-conforming behavior from Gender Dysphoria, while actual studies of trans children show they are as consistent in knowing their identity as non-trans youth, and lack of acceptance leads to increased suicide risk http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21... http://pss.sagepub.com/content/early/... http://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu... Hormone replacement therapy risks mentioned by ACP are based on forms and amounts of hormones used decades ago, not current treatment and findings by the largest study to date http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/8... The study cited by the ACP about suicides post-surgery shows the exact opposite of the ACP's claims, and other studies show that discrimination and rejection from society are what drive people to suicide http://journals.plos.org/plosone/arti... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/brynn-t... Studies have proven that family support of a trans child's identity leads to improved mental health and lowers the risk of depression and anxiety to normal levels. That's hardly abuse. http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-n...
