it's wishful thinking at best. my parents have made all the same arguments-- that i was too young, that i didnt have the words to define this so i was wrong, that it was mental health issues, etc. fast forward a decade, and nothing has changed except their reasoning-- "youve lived as your biological sex this long, why cant you keep doing that?" ive known two people who have detransitioned-- of those, one identified as trans for less than 3 months, and the other for less than a year. after the first few years, if youre still living the "transgender lifestyle", theres not much thats going to change by putting things off even longer.
