  A child - along with their parents - should be allowed to consent to treating a broken arm because it is fixing a state the arm did not start in, it has detrimental side effects for the child if not treated (that would not be self inflicted and are physical and not the byproduct of the psyche), and because these things are measurable and create reliable predictions. Psychological systems very rarely create reliable predictions. Remember that psychology is not a hard science, and it has been proven that placebos can “cure” roughly 50% of depression. You should not be allowed to consent to a treatment that is irreversible, is predicated on the psyche, and of which revolves around notions of gender, which is not real - gender is an idea, and a bad one at that. It holds no cardinal essence.
