Because politics are not science and people are very weird when it comes to children and education.
You cannot seriously believe that a country doing something gives it any kind of credibility, right?

Do you really believe a parent putting their child on the road to Transition socially and chemically is something positive?
Would you be OK if your parents did that to you?

Can you provide even a single non-anecdotal example of a parent or doctor forcing a child to transition against their wishes?

Kids do what they are told. And yes there are indeed adults who share that they were transitioned and later grew out of the confusion the adults caused them on this issue.
In recent years, the number of children experiencing gender dysphoria in the West has skyrocketed. Exact figures are difficult to come by, but, between 2009 and 2019, children being referred for transitioning treatment in the United Kingdom increased 1,000% among biological males and 4,400% among biological females. Meanwhile, the number of young people identifying as transgender in the US has almost doubled since 2017, according to a new Centers for Disease Control & Prevention report.
