Does it matter what we do about gender confusion in individuals?  Isn't it easier to just do whatever makes it comfortable for confused people to be happy?

Yes, it's easier.  But is that the best thing to do?  What if making life easy now leads that person into depression and possibly suicide later in life?  What if making life easier for this person makes life harder for others?

The American College of Pediatricians has published an article Gender Ideology Harms Children wherein they explain their studied position on how tampering with the physical process of growing interferes with the mental development of children.  Specifically, in their conclusion, they state "Our opponents advocate a new scientifically baseless standard of care for children with a psychological condition (GD) that would otherwise resolve after puberty for the vast majority of patients concerned."
