I ' m in KC too although the Missouri side and I think it has to do with Johnson County . Typically poorer people are more likely to be obese , and since those uppermiddle class suburbs represent a big portion of the state ' s population they skew a lot of these statistics .

I used to love grinding in FF games to be a power house against bosses etc . However this hasn ' t really been possible since XIII came out as their was always a limit depending where you were at in the story <| sep |> This clearly isn ' t a new thing for your child , and at 16 , she ' s old enough to be on HRT by some accepted standards of care . Life as a woman has some extra difficulties , but you wouldn ' t tell a 16 year old that you ' d raised as a daughter from birth that she should think it over and consider being a guy because of that . It ' s probably worth contacting an association like Mermaids and getting in touch with supportive parents of other trans youth . Blockers are expensive in some places , health care covers them . HRT is a lot cheaper than you ' d expect . Also , is banking sperm an option ? If she ' s sure about this and that is not something I can assess for either of you , much less from one post online transitioning physically at 16 will serve her better than transitioning physically at 18 . We live in a world where passability makes a big difference to quality of life , and an extra 2 years of masculinization to her bones and facial structure will not be good for her . Edit also , see
