I agree with you that the second statement is real. I also, through my own experiences with mental health, know that treatments for individuals isn't always equal. When I was in the nuthouse for depression, a fellow nutjob was getting the modern equivalent of electroshock therapy and it scared the **** out of me that I would have to get that. It was ****ed up, but actually made a difference for her. I 100% agree that 10 year olds are a vastly more complicated issue , but treatments for some individuals looks really ****ed up from afar. And trying to one-size-fits-all complicated treatments for individuals with varying issues hasn't always been that successful in the past.
Third statement, I don't know if that is true or not. Sex changes have been going on for a long time (early 20th Century?) and some still say it is barbaric (and it might be) and others say it is treatment. I don't know the right choice for every 10 year old.
"Medically necessary" isn't solely based on rhetoric. Rhetoric is what connects the dots between whatever evidence is used to make the argument that it is 'medically necessary'.
