Episode notes

Jim Rand breaks down the Justice Department’s settlement with Connecticut Children’s Medical Center ending puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and related treatments for patients under 18. The hospital will also fund $500,000 in care for those harmed by prior “gender-affirming” interventions. This is the third major children’s hospital to reach such an agreement. Jim explains why protecting kids from experimental medicalization is a moral and practical win, why results matter more than intentions, and what this shift means for families and young people.
