Parents of teen who took his own life call for more support for trans under-18s
Briefly

Mark Pulman noted his stepson's frustration over the 26-month wait for an NHS gender identity service appointment, saying, 'I know it broke Jason.'
Jason's mother called for increased resources and regular support for trans under-18s, emphasizing the link between gender care and overall mental health needs.
Over 5,700 under-18s face an average 100-week wait for a first gender clinic appointment, worsened by the closure of England's only youth clinic.
Jason's stepfather highlighted the need for faster responses, emotional support, and system changes to support families navigating the challenges of transgender youth.
