Like I said they put childrens welfare ahead of liberal political fashions. They broke away from the American Academy of Pediatricians because: Increasingly, the Academy promoted social policy based on political correctness and the wants of adults rather than the needs of children. The AAP first accepted and later supported the abortion of children who should have been their patients. They encouraged adolescents to bypass the advice and counsel of their parents’ on important medical matters. They discouraged discussion with children about the need to avoid sexual activity until marriage. They held close ties to the pharmaceutical industry, and were reluctant to accept the reality of a two party government system in this country. All of these items/issues provoked concern among many of the Nation’s pediatricians. Good reasons. One of their founders is a former President of the AAP. I note their positions are supported by research, not Hollywood celebrities. When Gramscian liberals subvert institutions, it may be desirable to abandon them and form new institutions.
