Imagine, if you will, parents standing at the edge of a vast sea called reality. Their child stands beside them, eager to explore its depths. Some parents gaze into this sea of life, seeing its beauty and complexity and help their children wade in, guiding them through its currents. Other parents, however, see something different: a vast expanse they’d rather not face themselves. So, they build a fantastical shore with lots of self-aggrandisement outside community and society, where the waters are still but also shallow, dirty, lifeless, and filled with lies.

We all know that reality can be cold and hard; it has depths most of us fear to explore ourselves. It’s often easier to create a comfortable illusion than to navigate life’s complexities. Some parents, upon seeing their children question their place in the world; question who they are or feel they should be: see this as an opportunity to build those fantasies.

When parents teach their children a false constructed reality where people can be forced to accept the psychosis of others, of course they set them up for failure. When a child is told they can override their own biological sex and all social or psychological consequences because they have a passing playtime delusion which then gets spun out of size through psychotic affirmations by people with graduate degrees; people who should know better. They respond by dressing that child in clothes meant for the other sex and celebrating it more than they had ever celebrated anything else regarding the child, they begin erecting structures to protect that illusion.

They raise the child to believe and tell everyone around them, “This is our ‘new’ ‘reality’ and we can make up our own reality that other people then have to ‘respect,’ or else.” The fantasy shoreline grows, complete with rules and expectations, ever expanding out into social domains beyond. Other people, wanting to avoid the cold hard sea of life, step onto this artificial shore and help reinforce it. This does not work though, as it only invites those with the loosest connection with reality into their lives, while forcing out those most especially attached to reality.

It’s not just about clothes or names; it’s about instilling a false sense of identity. These parents, and others who support them in these lies, believe they’re helping their children find happiness through this overwhelming affirmation. However, they’re doing something far more insidious: enticing the child to live in a fantasyland that does not exist, and leads only to failure.

We must ask ourselves: what happens when a child raised on this shallow shore reaches its edge? They look out at the vast sea of reality and realise there’s no safe entry point into that hidden beach because their parents and ‘therapists’ built them a false entrance. Panic sets in, loneliness engulfs them, no one has taught them to identify their true self and they are lost.

This child, now grown, grapples with identity. They’ve been affirmed in a false fantasy for self-identity all along, enforced in the sinking social costs. This is an evil thing to do to anyone; a psychological cage of embarrassment and self-hate. Parents and the illusion builders around them have denied them the chance to explore the actual self by trapping them in lies about the self, disabling the ability to grow in real terms. Actuality becomes a terrifying non-prospect after these people who affirmed the delusions for the feelgood did not actually prepare them for the deep and cold waters of reality.

When parents deny the cold hard truths of reality for their children due to politically motivated non-science; telling them they can control what others believe about them, it’s like teaching them to deny the forces of gravity or electricity. The child must confront the realities of their sex eventually and it is inevitable.

This denial sets children up for a tragic end: suicide is often the result of feeling trapped in a life that doesn’t align with one’s actual self, especially as it distances them from saner people. When parents build fantasies instead of guiding their children through reality, they push them toward despair. They create a world where the child feels isolated, misunderstood, and ultimately unmoored from truth.

Consider this: if we truly love our children, we help them navigate life’s complexities honestly. We teach them to swim in the sea of reality, not pretend it doesn’t exist. We show them how to face its depths with courage, resilience, and a deep understanding of who they are.

So let’s strive for honesty and truth. Let’s guide our children through the cold hard sea of life, helping them grow strong and capable of navigating its currents. The alternative, building fantasies, only sets them up for failure and an eventual collapse into despair. Reality waits for no one; it’s up to us to prepare our children for its inevitable embrace.
