Conversion Therapy Unethical
 

There would be no need to convert someone who is happy with themselves. Conversion Therapy is ineffectual and has a strong potential to be harmful to the child who is forced to submit to the program. It's a draconian practice that offers no value to the family and creates barriers between unaccepting parents and children who only want to be accepted.
