says:

My son started at UChicago Fall 2024 the day after his 18th birthday. They set him up with an email account using a trans name he gave them instead of his legal name, and we (his parents) had no idea though we paid for all of his tuition, room & board 100%. He told us he went to Planned Parenthood near campus and was given estradiol and spironolactone at his 1st visit. He has never had any therapy or indicated he was in distress prior to this. My son sent us a letter in Jan 2025 telling us he was going down this path, and we researched and decided he would not go back for Spring Quarter 2025 after spring break. I couldn’t find a non-affirming therapist anywhere in the city of Chicago. After I went and cleared out his dorm room (shared with a male roommate), the housing dept sent me an email copying my son using his trans name! Unbelievable. ~ Parent
