The American Academy of Pediatrics Hates Children

By August 22, 2025Commentary2 min read

Most physicians have some specialty, whether in primary care or for a specific disease or body system.  The doctors who care for children are pediatricians.  Most specialties have a specialty society that promotes the objectives of the specialty and often provides guidelines for care.  The American Academy of Pediatrics is one of the specialty societies for pediatricians.  It is also one of the most woke, pathetically unscientific specialty societies out there.  All you really need to know about it is that it actively promotes the sexual mutilation of children through the woefully misnamed “gender-affirming care”.  This is of course, really gender disaffirming care.  Children should be told that they are fine as they are born and that they should be happy to be a boy or a girl and that being born whatever sex they are has nothing to do with how they can live their lives–what activities they engage in, what work they do, who they have relationships with.

Although it would never admit it, the AAP promotes this care because of money–they get money from the drug manufacturers who facilitate this butchery and their members get lifelong money from treating the physical and mental harms they create.  Recently the AAP followed up with ignoring the current recommendations on CV-19 vax for children and encouraging pediatricians to manipulate parents into getting their children additional boosters.  This is absurd.  CV-19 poses zero threat to healthy children or really even those with health issues.  The vaccines have been repeatedly shown to have about zero effectiveness.  There are some limited number of serious side effects in children.  Any rational cost/benefit analysis would conclude that it makes no sense to vaccinate children against CV-19 at this point.  But guess who also gives lots of money to the AAP–the vaccine manufacturers.

I strongly encourage parents to look at the objective research themselves and I would advise them to not under any circumstances buckle to pressure and get their children further CV-19 vaccine doses.
