Sounds like a terrible idea
A popular transgender activist recently called for all children to be put on puberty blockers until they are able to decide which gender they want to be.
Lauren McNamara, known by followers as "Zinnia Jones," argued earlier this month that children should be legally

Who are Children? A child or children, is a human being between the stages of birth and puberty, or between the developmental period of infancy and puberty.

What is Transgender? Transgender people have a gender identity or gender expression that differs from their assigned sex. Transgender people are sometimes called transsexual if they desire medical assistance to transition from one sex to another. Other definitions of transgender also include people who belong to a third
gender, or else conceptualize transgender people as a third gender. Infrequently, the term transgender is defined very broadly to include cross-dressers, regardless of their gender identity.
