My husband and I, both products of divorce who wasted years to addiction, often marvel about how cavalier people are about divorce with children. A two-parent home is one of the biggest advantages I'm giving my kids.

I live in New Hampshire, have kids, and commend this rep's bravery to go against his party. The bill only bans genital transition surgeries for minors. Not a hard thing to oppose since the surgeries have high fail rates and data on long-term regret rates for kids is scant.
State Rep. Jonah Wheeler speaks in the New Hampshire statehouse about why he decided to join 13 other Democrats in voting to ban gender-transition surgeries for minors. The bill passed by a narrow margin due to these Dems’ support.
