Forty-seven percent of registered voters don’t think doctors should be allowed to prescribe puberty blockers to children under any circumstances, according to a new poll from The Center Square.
The Center Square Voters’ Voice Poll found that 29% of voters think doctors should be allowed to prescribe puberty blockers to children with parental consent. Without parental approval, that figure drops to 10%. Another 14% of Americans said they weren’t sure about the issue.
Democrats tended to be more open to the use of puberty blockers on minors than Republicans. Among Democrats, 41% said doctors should be allowed to prescribe puberty blockers with parental supervision. For Republicans, the figure was 16%.
