GENDER: Questions about kid transitions

The subject is transitioning children. I would like to have some of the individuals who are promoting this explain why they, as adults, are making a medical decision for children that they cannot make for themselves.

The reason given is some children are confused about their gender. What does that actually mean? What would make a child confused? Is it family issues or things that they have been exposed to outside from the family?

The process appears to be giving children drugs to prevent them from becoming the gender that they were born. And then removing body parts that identify them as a male or female. 

Children are not being changed from one gender to another, they are being given medical treatment to think they are being changed. When they become adults they will not be fully functioning as the gender they think they are. What drugs are they given and what happens if they do not take those drugs?

The only people I know that are promoting this practice are the zero population crowd. They know that the children being transitioned will not be able to reproduce. Do you think that these children understand that?  

Can you explain why you personally encourage this practice, instead of counseling to find out what is happening to them and why they want to become something they are not?
