View original postI picked the name out of the blue to refer to some other kid who might need protecting, was wondering if there are any protections in place.
Why would there need to be particular protections other than the regular ones of not allowing invasive medical procedures or medicine treatments without a doctor recommending it?
WHAT. THE. SHIT?!
