This pediatrician is a philosophical mess. She isn’t worthy of being on Prager U.
@gavingleemonex3898 Says:
Nobody wants your opinion on how to raise their children, Prager U. What do you think everybody is going to die of stupidity without you around? I'm registering as Dem. Want to make something of it?

*****Read This: Calling Hokum And Hogwash On Balenciaga’s Apology For Bondage Ad Pics With Toddlers. Read at the Published Reporter. Fashion brand Balenciaga apologized after an outrageous advertisement sparked backlash. Yes, I am hopping mad! The ad depicted toddlers holding teddy bears dressed in bondage belts. Furthermore, I am morally outraged! Folks, do you actually believe the doubletalk by the company big wigs? Malarkey is my opinion. It’s a codswallop smoke screen for getting caught in the act. The company pushed their indoctrination of sexualization meter to see how the public would respond. Well, the corporate perverts got their answer.

Who else is just watching this for the sake of laughing at the stupid ideals lol
@stephenbuechner9595 Says:
This pediatrician is incredibly naive to gender issues. Pretends that she doesn't have an opinion on "social issues" but then says she abides by "do no harm". No way would I send my kids to see her. If you can't see the social issues leading to the medical decisions that are destroying kids' lives, then you're complicit in this terrible movement. It's time for everyone to speak out, but especially pediatricians.
@aln5832 Says:
I wonder if this doctor got a degree from Jesus University. She sounds very understanding of what “Woke” is. So much so that she can’t define it. Also, doesn’t the right not trust doctors? Aren’t they part of they deep state?
@lisatritz1173 Says:
I'm very disappointed that Prager has this on his channel
@nova31337 Says:
This interview is the definition of milquetoast. As others noted, the interviewer is doing more talking than the interviewee and the interviewee is doing everything to walk a fine line of placating parents but giving enough cover to the garbage people running our society into the ground. Instead of telling parents to let your kids play cross dress-up or let them go to school in sleepwear, tell parents to ask what's going on with their kids and why they feel the need to do that. One parent I saw elsewhere talk about how their boy wanted to dress up as a girl, but when the parent asked their child (shocking), the boy just wanted to look "fancy". The parent got the boy some fancy boy clothes and a crown to wear and he was perfectly happy at that point. You don't have to let them dress as a girl if there are some elements that can satisfy what the child wants without generating confusion for them. It's about digging down, doing the work, and learning what your child is trying to obtain. You as the parent have to be there to guide them.
@mybubble Says:
This pediatrician lost me when she said, it's OK to socially transition and confused children. I understand that dressing up doesn't cause harm like putting drugs and doing procedures, but socially transition is always step number 1. I think that it's ok for a girl to play with cars, etc, but not socially transition l.

The comment by the doctor at 4:50 is the reason why there are so many inane advices given to parents today. We hear comment, after comment, after comment on how kids ruin their parents ability to enjoy "life". First "they" attacked marriage and destroyed that and now they are doubling down on the family because "they" learned from history how to destroy a nation.

I thought this convo was going to advocate away from woke… I felt like it accepted woke concepts. 🥴🥴
@sarahjessicafarter7383 Says:
Every since the Battle of Foreskin Hill, this great nation of ours has been leading God's green earth and without the American race of white people kissed in the mouth by the Almighty the world will plunge into eternal darkness. Stand up for freedom and for Dennis Prager to lead us into the light.
@mommybreakdown Says:
I appreciated the discussion of differing opinions intertwined with science. We agree more than we disagree.
@avafury4584 Says:
Keep your kids grounded in the bible and make sure they are well loved. Communicate often with them from an early age so there will no confusion in their mind on who they are and how special they are to Jesus.
@et1016 Says:
If a child is fat; let the parents know they have a fat kid. Kids not snowflakes, they’re not gonna melt. It’s an issue that needs to be dealt with. No one is going to die if their feelings get hurt. 🙄
@raphaelrae8186 Says:
Parents not wanting to teach kids about sex, is HOW the indoctrination is possible. The woke schools know that their counter-realism crap are the first impressions kids get about sex. It's how they can destroy people's minds and sexualities when they're young.
@Merlin3189 Says:
It always worries me when someone interviews an expert and the expert spends most of their time listening to the interviewer. I think the purpose of interviewing an expert is to find out what they think. I would have liked this a lot more if, at the end I felt I knew a lot more about what Dr Hochman thought and not so much about what Mrs Streit thought (which I think I already knew.) The other thing that worried me is that both people seemed to believe that being born in the wrong body was physically possible: that seems to deny biological reality.

Videos might get more views if you used timestamps. Would be nice either way
@richarddow69 Says:
Really. I thought Dennis Prager's position is there is only two sexes. I do not agree with most of this doctors position on transgender (when did this become a word?) and her opinion on the state of the public school system. Have no words really how disappointed I have been with this interview and the recent one with Nikki Haley. We all have opinions and this one is mine. Understood.
@mattk6719 Says:
I didn't realize this conversation with a pediatrician was just going to be about gender dysphoria.
@sjstevens6375 Says:
As a woman who grew up with a weight issue - I say there is a balance. I struggled with heavy periods and wearing a bra from the age of nine. Physical activity went down, weight went up, and I didn’t have an adult that told me there was beauty in me. Instead, I was surrounded by diet books and told that no one would be attracted to me if I was overweight. The issue of my hormones was not addressed. I was not taken to an OBGYN. I felt shamed - so it is important to remember that fat is just one of an innumerable number of layers to a person. This beauty “movement” is good in that it is making it not OK to make fun of fat individuals and awakening culture to the truth that a person who is not an ideal weight is still worthy of love and that they are beautiful in their own way.

Kevin Leman recommends vitamin NO. Kids and more and more adults need that now more than ever. 😆

I recently saw a meme: "This is Barbie. This doll has been hotly debated for decades for the unrealistic body-standard, that triggers an appearance-fixated crisis in young girls." "This is He-Man."

LAUSD absolutely is pushing gender ideology. Daughter is in a private Catholic school which is anything but Catholic. Pushing anti racism and gender/queer theology non stop.

Adding "phobia" to everything is so ridiculous.
@Hw-xf6gs Says:
Pure transphobia rubbish, I WISH I started transitioning at age 3 but instead due to outright bigotry I started transitioning at age 9, I KNew that I Was a woman when I Was 3

@SlimThrull Says:
Step 1) Take your children out of public schools if you can. Put them in a conservative school. We don't want people to indoctrinate our children.... unless they agree with us. Then it's fine. Step 2) Ban books. Anything with sex and violence should be banned. Except the Bible. While there is lots of sex, violence, incest and sex with animals, all our conservative members feel this is all fine as it's age appropriate. Step 3) if you must keep your child in a public school, make sure his peers, teachers and councilors all agree with his viewpoints. The last we want is for him to be exposed to any of this wokeness out there. If this sounds like a safe space, it isn't! It's ONLY a safe space when the left does that. We when do it, it's "protecting the children". Step 4) Make sure you donate to PragerU. We promise we won't spend any money suing youtube over cases we can't possibly win. And we we certainly wouldn't waste money on appealing that court's decision. Your money is safe with us! We promise!
