"Some children identify with a gender that does not match their sex assigned at birth. ". Children, are naive, add to this parrent indoctrination and voilà. When I was young, I thought I was ninja. Too much Naruto =).
Medical professionals In the U.S was performing lobotomy less than 50 years ago and there was general consensus that it is beneficial within the country, but it was criticized outside, e.g in Soviet Union. Right now there is some consensus that minors can consent to sex change within the U.S mostly, but it is mostly unheard of outside. Same pattern in my opinion.

Lol, good point.
Why do medical professionals and the medical consensus disagree with you then?

Great points.
That is not what the consensus is.
Medical professionals have never been wrong about anything, especially new things with very little data to study.
Trans people are not new, and there is plenty of data. And the conclusion to that data among medical professionals is that gender affirming care is the best way to help people.
