From "What the battle over a 7-year-old trans girl could mean for families nationwide" by Katelyn Burns, 2019-11-11:

Political forces opposed to social transitions for children are fond of saying "let kids be kids" -- but watchful waiting seems counterintuitive to that goal.

"Watchful waiting is a deceptive term," said Kelley Winters, a writer and consultant on issues of gender diversity in medical and public policy, told Vox. "There's nothing neutral. It's meant to sound effectively neutral, and there's nothing neutral about forcing trans kids to spend their childhoods in the closet and grow up with absolutely no memories of being authentically present in their entire childhood."
