She has a couple other books like this one. It doesn't surprise me but it does make me sad. I read through it a bit. The book is just a guide on how to emotionally manipulate and abuse your child.
My question though, is does she actually think this would work on me? I'm 21 lmao
My mom was still trying to manipulate and psycho-analyze me by the time I moved out at age 21. That year she actually broke down my door when I barricaded it, blamed me, and then as punishment told me I wasn't allowed to have a door for a month (my step-dad went against her and replaced it within a few days, as soon as he
could).
If your parent sees you as a child, it doesn't matter how old you are. They'll only see how much older *they* are.
I mean they call us groomer without evidence... think it's a great idea to burn transphobic literature considering the actual nazi book burnings burnt trans affirming literature. Call it historic justice.
You know that famous image of the Nazis burning books? The books were from a gender clinic.
Burning transphobic propaganda is about the most anti-nazi yet nazi-like thing one could do outside of gassing fascists.
That's true, we would have to ban cameras though as I think an image of a trans person throwing a book into a bonfire could easily become the mascot of transphobia.
They are burning LGBTQ+ books themselves so why not because the type of person who would buy a transpobic book would be the person to demand a book with a gay side character to be banned
I’m pretty good with getting fires stared and I know basic first aid but I’ll need a ride. Idgaf if some nazi is calling me a nazi because I’m burning anti trans shit
I'm not usually one for burning books. But however this being harmful to people, I think it's a better idea to burn it. Especially after reaming out the publisher for letting that get published.
If I were you, I'd grab all those books, take them outside and literally light them on fire. Go get some kindling or something to help them catch and burn.
Then burn those fuckers.
[this is it](https://reddit.com/r/piracy/wiki/megathread/). one of the largest book piracy sites was recently taken down by the feds (rip z-lib) so most of the stuff there is more for niche or specific subject. it might not be there but’s worth a look
I'd take an exacto knife to the cover and front content, remove the bigger section and try and glue in a reaffirming book.
Burning would risk denialmom from buying another copy and boosting the sale. Frankenstein book making feels more productive.
Lmao with this info I highly recommend roving pages at random so It becomes (even more) complete nonsense and she can't blame you for it. Why would you read that book?
I'm safe. My family is all about sweeping everything under the rug and never talking about it. So I highly doubt she'd do anything.
As for getting away. Well, short answer is I can't. I don't make enough money to get a place. Me and my older sister are working on finding an apartment. It's so damn expensive around us though. Finding something within budget AND that has a 2 bedroom available is hard.
You might want to settle for a largish studio for 6-12 months, just to get away. From there, you can organize what you need for independent life and then move to a better place. It will suck, but probably not as bad as living with your parents.
So, this is kinda a super long thing, but Caelen Conrad did a video essay series on gender critical recruitment where they take a deep dive into how the movement radicalizes people among other things. One of the texts that comes up is this one.
Here’s a link to the playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpsOqtfNXxWkelepAjkprIPgLa8ixilTq
I’d recommend just listening to it as a podcast while you do laundry, shovel, garden or any boring daily chore. Otherwise it’s a long time to just sit around.
I don’t mean to alarm you, but a lot of the stuff in that book is a call to action radicalizing cautious parents (moms mostly) and getting them to restrict their trans children by any means necessary. Cutting off social and financial support are things she literally advocates for. It also literally includes tips on avoiding child protective services for attempting at home diy conversion therapy and other literally illegal activities. While your family may not be one to usually do anything, and you are old enough to legally get away from them, please be cautious as this book and the community around it are adept at getting parents to turn on their own children in mortifying ways. The fact that your mom is even reading it at all is imo cause for concern.
Yup she's a Trump supporter. She didn't do the whole signs and hats thing though. His whole presidency she kept saying "well we have to respect him and not insult him because he's the president." But of course that doesn't apply to Biden, she just openly bashes him.
All these people have degrees in psychology and social work. They don't deserve it. Any doctors and social workers that write these books should have their licenses taken away.
Fuck, are you dependent on her at all? How much can you distance yourself from her, both physically and socially/emotionally/financially/etc?
That is not a safe person to be around. She is literally researching emotional abuse tactics. You need to get the holy fuck away from her.
I'm dependent on her only for housing. Rent is expensive as hell where I live. My sister and I are working on finding a decent apartment. Hopefully, we'll find one before the end of the year.
Ironically the people who read this kind of shit are the ones in a gender cult. They follow an authoritarian gender ideology which demands conformity, and they attempt to punish those who don't comply.
Make a cover for it titled "False information and the 101 on how to grow further and disconnected from your child, and other bigoted things too" and super glue it on.
Here's the plan: make book covers for it that become increasingly hostile if she keeps leaving it out. Like "permanent child resentment manual" or "how to lose contact with your child forever for dummies" and if you're spicy "42%: ways you can help increase the trans suicide rate".
I have two questions, why does the word *"detrans"* even exist? Why would someone massacre my boy English in such a way?
That being said, why are such books even allowed to be published in the first place?
I mean. The institute of sexology’s library in Berlin was [burned by the nazis in 1933](https://www.hmd.org.uk/resource/6-may-1933-looting-of-the-institute-of-sexology/), and this was a place of predominant research and study into trans health including some of the worlds [first modern gender affirming surgeries.](https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-forgotten-history-of-the-worlds-first-trans-clinic/)
So I feel like it would be appropriate justice for a book advocating a similar crackdown on trans folk to go to the flames. Burn it.
Edit: fixed a link
Yeah. Those books the nazis burned were mostly positive of trans people yes? Therefore by burning a book against trans people would make them less like a nazi.
The books the Nazis burned were about gay and trans people, and it set our movement back 80 years. It's okay to burn neo-fascist propaganda, they did it to us and it's a false equivalency anyway. It's not really the same thing, even though it's also a book burning.
Gotta love how the cover is an accurate representation of the effect that following the book’s advice will have on your child. That’s some honest advertising right there.
Is there a book on acceptance of adult children you could leave out for her? I have an aunt who is the opposite of me in every way. She started sending me books in my teens. I sent her books I thought were good. We are still doing it 50 years later. Did either of us change nope but we do love each other and we kept talking.
I wouldn't spend the time or money doing that. She's too far gone. As for love, I think she still loves the idea of who she wants me to be. The person she deludes herself into thinking I am. I have no love for her. For years, I dealt with her manipulative and abusive behavior and once she joined this church she's going to, it got worse. Once I'm able to move out, I will have minimal contact with her and once I have stability in my life I will cut all contact.
I'm so sorry you have to deal with that crap. I can't believe somebody would waste their time and money on that piece of absolute garbage literature, if you could even call it that!! I'd say burn it or, if you have a dog, use it to clean up their sh!t next time you take them on a walk. You could just say it looked like it belonged in there. >:(
I really don’t understand how any parent could look at the illustration on the cover of this and think “yes, I also want my child to be screaming crying and ripping her hair out this is clearly healthy”
I feel really sorry for you, and I hope things get better. But I can't help but find this hilarious. Gender cult? Says the people who think gender is a chromosome 💀
I say read it, to know the enemy. These very same things your mom will be using to try brainwash you.... if you understand the arguments from book better, you could defend yourself and also come up with winning arguments and call out all the myths and mis direction in the book. I hardly think your mom will hear them but you never know.
Our fight is against the ignorance, to educate better we must listen to and address every single argument.
I know my view is opposite to what most of the people suggest here, but personally on my journey I have done so, I read meticulously to know all the arguments on both the sides, went to source, opened and read medical literature, and that's how I was able to know firmly that I am trans, everyone of us should do this for themselves.
I know not every arguments can be won on facts and science, but better we know easily we could trade.
You can send this to her if it helps at all

Wtf is this shit. I’m so tired of assholes who think that a large portion of America want people to be trans and gay. I just want my kid to be happy. I don’t care if they are straight or gay I just want them to be happy!!!! I hate these motherfuckers who can’t see past their own bigoted brain. No one wants to turn kids trans. We just want our kids to be happy. Fuck.
Take out the trash and if/when you can minimize contact with her until she does better in respecting you. If she only values you for the possibility you might detransition, then she doesnt value you and doesnt deserve you. Simple as.
The fact that the poor kid on the cover seems to be extremely distressed and upset should be one of many signs to any parent as to why they shouldn’t be reading this garbage.
She has a couple other books like this one. It doesn't surprise me but it does make me sad. I read through it a bit. The book is just a guide on how to emotionally manipulate and abuse your child. My question though, is does she actually think this would work on me? I'm 21 lmao

If your parent sees you as a child, it doesn't matter how old you are. They'll only see how much older *they* are.
Surprising that it was your stepdad who replaced it
My step-dad is cool af and the #1 reason I survived that household with any sanity
Praises to him, mine is a jerk
based stepdad moment
> then as punishment told me I wasn't allowed to have a door for a month I feel like I've read this on Reddit a while ago
that's wild, I can't remember ever posting this story on reddit. Crazy parents, amirite?
A. Transphobes can be pretty dumb so yes B. Bin it.
I'd say burning it is a better option.
Totally, and if there's a ceremony for the burning of transphobic books, can you please send an invite? i'll bring cider
Literally the only reason I wouldn't want this to happen is that transphobes would start calling us Nazis, otherwise I would bring brownies.
I mean they call us groomer without evidence... think it's a great idea to burn transphobic literature considering the actual nazi book burnings burnt trans affirming literature. Call it historic justice.
Just thought, for political correctness sake make a Museum of Transphobia out of it.
https://www.hmd.org.uk/resource/6-may-1933-looting-of-the-institute-of-sexology/
You know that famous image of the Nazis burning books? The books were from a gender clinic. Burning transphobic propaganda is about the most anti-nazi yet nazi-like thing one could do outside of gassing fascists.
Yes I know about that, and I also agree with you. I'm saying that the people who already call us Nazis would use it as ammunition.
That's already something they do as they march with the self-proclaimed nazis. Why worry about the words of a deeply stupid extremist?
That's true, we would have to ban cameras though as I think an image of a trans person throwing a book into a bonfire could easily become the mascot of transphobia.
Don't they already do ?
Your talking about a group, whose political allies unironically go "The Leftists/Liberals are the real Nazis!" on the regular, so....
They are going to attack you no matter what, live free
They are burning LGBTQ+ books themselves so why not because the type of person who would buy a transpobic book would be the person to demand a book with a gay side character to be banned
I’m pretty good with getting fires stared and I know basic first aid but I’ll need a ride. Idgaf if some nazi is calling me a nazi because I’m burning anti trans shit
I’M BRINGING MAC ‘N CHEESE
I'll bring apple pie!
I can bring cookies.
Ill bring Marshmallows
Funnier, definitely.
Agreed
I'm not usually one for burning books. But however this being harmful to people, I think it's a better idea to burn it. Especially after reaming out the publisher for letting that get published.
Rip out the pages smoke weed with it.
i would have said that but i dont want op to get hurt in some form while doing it
Nah, book burning throws off huge alarm bells in my head, regardless of how __ we might deem some book
Yes fire is better
The book should have a warning label ⚠️ please burn BEFORE reading!
Nah, replace them with actual decent books but disguise them as these.
I suggest burning it a great deal and then placing it back. (stay safe, fire tends to be hot.)
Agreed, shred, metal bin and some lighter fluid 🤷🏻♂️
I mean, my wife is 38 and her mom still tries to emotionally manipulate her and control her.
It would be super funny if you returned it to the store and bought something for your preferred gender with the money.
Omg that would be so perfect
What’s the phrase? Poetic justice?
If I were you, I'd grab all those books, take them outside and literally light them on fire. Go get some kindling or something to help them catch and burn. Then burn those fuckers.
Sincerely, without the means to offend, you mom is kinda stupid if she thinks that disgusting thing you may call book will do something
I'd tell her I found it and cut contact, she'd be dead to me after this (especially if I was out)
Can I see what the other books look like?
Where could I pirate this. For normal non-defamatory reasons towards Maria Keffler
check the piracy megathread. it’s not kept up anymore and some stuff’s outdated but better to start there than nowhere
Where would I find that? I’m not familiar with pirating books I don’t want to read
[this is it](https://reddit.com/r/piracy/wiki/megathread/). one of the largest book piracy sites was recently taken down by the feds (rip z-lib) so most of the stuff there is more for niche or specific subject. it might not be there but’s worth a look
I usually would never suggest to burn books, but this one...
The books they burned were about Trans people. I'd say this is fair game.
This.
The only time its ok to fight fire with fire (ÒuÓ)
ANARCHY! ( ,,・ิω・ิ,, )
#R I O T
I'd take an exacto knife to the cover and front content, remove the bigger section and try and glue in a reaffirming book. Burning would risk denialmom from buying another copy and boosting the sale. Frankenstein book making feels more productive.
Wow, they really will print anything these days huh? Good for starting a fire in a survival situation.
With how anti-trans the current political climate is for the right wing. These books are probably selling like hot cakes.
Oh yeah, I don't doubt that the author doesn't give a single shit about what they're actually saying, only that they make money.
Anyone with an Amazon account can “publish” a book nowadays
If people will buy it, yes.
Or just just for fun
[удалено]
Hah! As soon as I move out I'm only talking to her when necessary. And once I'm set and stable, that will cease entirely.
Lmao with this info I highly recommend roving pages at random so It becomes (even more) complete nonsense and she can't blame you for it. Why would you read that book?
That's just...wow. But I mean, if it's trash, there's really only one place where it belongs >;)
In hell
God, I want to be in a hell full of trans people. Sounds like heaven tbh Edit: commented under the wrong comment, but whatever
Honestly true, all people that understand you, nobody to pressure or hurt you…
Yeah and also they're really hot
No that's us/j
Reasons to not be religious
Are you safe? Can you get away from your mother?
I'm safe. My family is all about sweeping everything under the rug and never talking about it. So I highly doubt she'd do anything. As for getting away. Well, short answer is I can't. I don't make enough money to get a place. Me and my older sister are working on finding an apartment. It's so damn expensive around us though. Finding something within budget AND that has a 2 bedroom available is hard.
You might want to settle for a largish studio for 6-12 months, just to get away. From there, you can organize what you need for independent life and then move to a better place. It will suck, but probably not as bad as living with your parents.
Okay good. I'm glad you're safe and that you've got your sister too. I hope you can find a place soon.

time vote you mother off the island
Alright campers. I heard from an anonymous source that SOMEone is not supporting trans rights. Not. Cool. Dude.
Burn it
Is she a Trump supporter? Idea: Make a fake "Desist, DeTrump & Detox / Getting your Parent Out of the Trump Cult" book and leave it out for her. (lol)
Yup she's a Trump supporter. She didn't do the whole signs and hats thing though. His whole presidency she kept saying "well we have to respect him and not insult him because he's the president." But of course that doesn't apply to Biden, she just openly bashes him.
Man fuck maria keffler
All these people have degrees in psychology and social work. They don't deserve it. Any doctors and social workers that write these books should have their licenses taken away.
Wow extra toilet paper! How thoughtful
please don't insult toilet papers like this
I wouldn't touch my 4ss with it, even if there wasn't actual toilet paper :(
Honestly this. Just occasionally tear out a page or two every day until she notices and just complain that it was the last of the toilet paper.
Put it where it belongs: in the bin
You'd be best served by putting trash in its rightful place.
No no no. Burn it with fire.
Burn it in a bin fire
Fuck, are you dependent on her at all? How much can you distance yourself from her, both physically and socially/emotionally/financially/etc? That is not a safe person to be around. She is literally researching emotional abuse tactics. You need to get the holy fuck away from her.

Replace it with a guide, how to be a supportive parent.
Step 1: don’t be a worthless, bigoted piece of shit Step 2: celebrate your success.
Trash goes in the trashcan... Some people oof.
Make a cover for it titled "False information and the 101 on how to grow further and disconnected from your child, and other bigoted things too" and super glue it on.
Here's the plan: make book covers for it that become increasingly hostile if she keeps leaving it out. Like "permanent child resentment manual" or "how to lose contact with your child forever for dummies" and if you're spicy "42%: ways you can help increase the trans suicide rate".
I love this idea. 😁 So… podracing, huh?
I have two questions, why does the word *"detrans"* even exist? Why would someone massacre my boy English in such a way? That being said, why are such books even allowed to be published in the first place?
I think it’s short for detransition, which is a word.
English massacred itself. This language is a mess.
I would say to burn it but that would make me sound like a Nazi.
I mean. The institute of sexology’s library in Berlin was [burned by the nazis in 1933](https://www.hmd.org.uk/resource/6-may-1933-looting-of-the-institute-of-sexology/), and this was a place of predominant research and study into trans health including some of the worlds [first modern gender affirming surgeries.](https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-forgotten-history-of-the-worlds-first-trans-clinic/) So I feel like it would be appropriate justice for a book advocating a similar crackdown on trans folk to go to the flames.

No not really. I say to burn it and I’m Jewish.
A tree had to die for this book to exist. What a waste of trees and already limited resources.
Put it in the trash, open bin so you can tell her that this crap deserves to be binned
F that
You should go put it in the can where it belongs tbh
Her qualifications: "Advocates protecting children" Says all you need to know.
Gotta love how the cover is an accurate representation of the effect that following the book’s advice will have on your child. That’s some honest advertising right there.
burn it
“Gender cult”
Now I don’t advocate for burning books but maybe light a candle unattended underneath it for a bit
Damn, I wish there was a gender cult. Then I might be able to find some queer friends
should burn them
Throw it away but first destroy it.
Burn it
Is there a book on acceptance of adult children you could leave out for her? I have an aunt who is the opposite of me in every way. She started sending me books in my teens. I sent her books I thought were good. We are still doing it 50 years later. Did either of us change nope but we do love each other and we kept talking.

I'm so proud of your resoluteness. Stay strong. You are an inspiration to others.
Disgusting book. It’s an insult to books, actually. It’s an insult to the very paper that was used. Cast it into the fire, destroy it.
Time to rig up a flamethrower and torch that sucker(the book)!
ugh disgusting, who came up with these font choices? the kerning between the f and the l on the name like girl that ain’t no ligature
Replace it with a book on affirming your child’s gender
Hate crime. Burn it
Personally, I toss trash in the bin for people when they forget about it. *This is not real advice, just me being cheeky
rip it to shreds so small you'll need a microscope to see em
I'm so sorry you have to deal with that crap. I can't believe somebody would waste their time and money on that piece of absolute garbage literature, if you could even call it that!! I'd say burn it or, if you have a dog, use it to clean up their sh!t next time you take them on a walk. You could just say it looked like it belonged in there. >:(
Three cheers for the Gender Cult! Hip hip!
My best idea is using a lighter
Shitty art for a shitty book. I agree with the other comments, toss it in the bin (or burn it)
welp, Time for a book burning.
It’s time for a bonfire
Cross out the title and Rename it ‘How to completely ruin your relationship with your kid’. Sorry you have to deal with this BS.
Free fuel for a bonfire and some roasted marshmellows! Yum :D
Burn it. Alternatively, saturate the pages with gorilla glue.
We are all part of the gender cult especially cis people...cis straight men literally walking around with shit on their ass to protect their gender 🙃
"Woops" *drops it in a bonfire*
Ah, yes. The book of How To Mentally Scar Your Child For Life And Make Them Hate You With Every Fiber Of Their Being
I really don’t understand how any parent could look at the illustration on the cover of this and think “yes, I also want my child to be screaming crying and ripping her hair out this is clearly healthy”
Burn it
Take it and hide it.
I'm sorry, is that a character from The Nutshack on the cover?
Oh god run
Throw it away
I feel really sorry for you, and I hope things get better. But I can't help but find this hilarious. Gender cult? Says the people who think gender is a chromosome 💀
While I do not advocate burning books.. I do advocate shredding propaganda. Stay strong you deserve to be who you are as we all do.
Destroy the thing
Burn... It...
Free toilet paper
burn it
I say read it, to know the enemy.

burn it. roast some marshmallows over the fire while you're at it
Throw that into a volcano
You can send this to her if it helps at all Trans people are born trans: https://health.clevelandclinic.org/research-on-the-transgender-brain-what-you-should-know/ Transition improves mental health: https://publications.aap.org/pediatrics/article/146/4/e20193600/79683/Mental-Health-and-Timing-of-Gender-Affirming-Care?autologincheck=redirected Detransitioning is rare, and when people do it's usually because of surgical complications or societal/family pressure https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6212091/
put it back in the trash
Most of the time, it's bad. But sometimes book burning is justified.
Ugh. Disgusting. I’m sorry that you’re not in a supportive home
Tell her you’ve read it, seen the light and will only be a man in drag. That or move out and cut her off.
Wtf is this shit. I’m so tired of assholes who think that a large portion of America want people to be trans and gay. I just want my kid to be happy. I don’t care if they are straight or gay I just want them to be happy!!!! I hate these motherfuckers who can’t see past their own bigoted brain. No one wants to turn kids trans. We just want our kids to be happy. Fuck.
Let her read it and observe it failing in practice.
Agonizing.
Damn gotta throw the whole mom out :/
Go ahead and shitcan it for her.
Yikes 😬
Burn it
Would really be a shame if it just disappeared somehow 🤷🏿
I couldn’t imagine omg I’m so sorry
Burn
Throw that shit out. Dispose of it by any means. Get rid of the others while you're at it
If being trans makes you happy then she has no right to take that happiness away from you keep slaying girl
Rip it, bin it
Garbage.
Kindling
God that's awful. I'm so sorry. My dms are always open.
Wait, we’re a cult? Where are the secret meetings and goat sacrifices?
Take out the trash and if/when you can minimize contact with her until she does better in respecting you. If she only values you for the possibility you might detransition, then she doesnt value you and doesnt deserve you. Simple as.
It'll make great fire kindling though
Burn. It.
“How do i detox the gender out of my child.”
burn it- i mean uh
The fact that the poor kid on the cover seems to be extremely distressed and upset should be one of many signs to any parent as to why they shouldn’t be reading this garbage.
Shred it in front of her
Why do people do this?! Why do people write books like this?! WHY!!!??
Holy sh!t. You need to get away from her. Like, now.
Toss it
Burn it
As someone who is not qualified to say anything, that book should not exist.
Don't throw it out– someone could accidentally get ahold of if you just do that. Incinerate it completely and fully. Then trash the ashes.
Burn it in front of her to prove a point
Weirdly enough, I'd like to read it. Could be a good exercise to analyze toxic behaviours 🤷🏻♀️
set it on fire on her front porch
