Transgender Kids. Who Knows Best?

Description

This program explores the divisive debate over whether a child should be free to make permanent changes to their gender. Dr. Kenneth Zucker once ran the largest public clinic in Toronto for treating children and adolescents with gender dysphoria, an often violent feeling that the body they were born in does not match their true gender. But then Zucker was fired and his clinic closed down amid comparisons to a religious zealot trying to "cure" homosexuality. His supporters believe he is a victim of a virulent form of transgender politics that stifles freedom of speech. The program features interviews with Zucker, his patients, the families, the clinicians and transgender activists.
