Exactly this. Surgery is not an option from any reputable doctor before at least 18, and even then you’re fighting uphill even if there’s been an established pattern of care for gender dysphoria. At 6, you just let your child wear what clothes they want, play with what they want, and maybe allow them to try out different names if they want. That’s pretty much it. Literally nobody is suggesting hormones, blockers, or surgery for children, and having a lot of trans friends, I can tell you those are difficult to access even for people with long established gender dysphoria.
