Immigration Officials Detained 9-Year-Old at MIA En Route to Disney Maria Antonia Guerra Montoya, 9, said she "only wanted to be on vacation like a normal family." By Alex DeLuca February 19, 2026
JFC!! DO NOT COME TO THE UNITED STATES! IT IS NOT SAFE HERE!
There is no other way to say this. The U.S. is one of the last places you should plan to vacation. DO NOT come here. The United States has a predatory Government and even coming here to vacation is no longer safe.

Perhaps it's addressed later (I'm on the Dissociation chapter), but it seems most of it is specific to people who are actively transitioning. Given that transitioning is rapidly becoming illegal in the US, you should write a book about how to handle that.

Come on man, this is textbook case of someone who "doth protest too much". I've mused before that he's gay and womanizes because he's just doing what his homophobic worldview demands but can't find the woman that "does it" for him. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
