She chose this
I find it very educational and very informative.
Yup.
@@chilly039 she was like 10
“I feel like I’m a joke.” “I’m stuck in this body.” Jazz is literally crying for help but everyone in that family is deafened by their greed for money and fame. I want better for her
I feel like what they aren’t considering is the hormones in her body. They are not taking into account how hormone imbalances can play part in weight and mental health. I also think they are going about this wrong. How about making working out fun? Have her join a sports team she used to play soccer. She lives with them why don’t they all start eating healthier and with portion control. If she like pancakes give her pancakes instead of taking away add healthier things to them.
Who the heck wants to run when they are out of shape? Have her walk on a treadmill for 10 mins on an incline to start out and gradually increase to 30mins once a day and she’ll drop the weight fast.

@@loria287 OMG so true. Hormones play a major role in engergy production, metabolism, and mood.
....and it started with hormone blockers
Someone was trying to say that her depression and anxiety and weight gain is from transitioning and she’s not happy and the mom is like “no she’s depressed for other reasons not that” so in my head, I think even if she was depressed from transitioning her parents would never admit it because it would go against everything they stand for and everything they have ever said would be a lie.
My thinking is she hates her body in every way. This is a horrible situation.
I think she definitely doesn't like how fat she's gotten, but she needs therapy to be coached through her ED, to return to normal eating habits before she can think about dieting. But other than that I think she's at least ok if not happy with everything else. It was unfortunate about the complications from her surgery but the follow up corrections went well thankfully!
HE will never feel right in this actual fake body he has now. Thats what happens when people deny reality and mutilate their kids.
Of course, he hates his body, his mother groomed him from the age of 5 and had his penis surgically removed when he was like 11 or 15 yrs old and replaced with a botched vsgina
Yes he does
@@simonsimonsimone and also if you saw my other comment I said she at first so please. I know what they are doing to these children. When you're an adult do what you please but leave the kids alone.
This is crazy. This child has been through so much. I’m not shocked she’s struggling with mental health. 😢
He! Surely you guys are seeing the error by bow
He’s struggling in his life because he’s living a lie . Jazz is a male and trying to live as. Female , he’s going to continue to be miserable

This is the most well documented case of child abuse in American history. And it’s broadcasted as entertainment for the world to see.
preach
I’ve decided I do not respect her mother anymore
@@momochisakura11 it's the broadcasting of her story to the world that is the child abuse not the supporting a trans youths transition part of her story
@@spartan1347981 It’s all of it!
@@LeafInTheWind88 nope! Supporting trans youth's transition is not abuse, forcing them to stay cis is. Now when I say transition that can mean anything between social and medical but ofc not surgical that option is for adults only. There's nothing wrong with being trans
Her eating is clearly not about food. She’s clearly depressed and under so much pressure from her family to live up to this perfect trans icon and Harvard graduate. She’s been trapped in a home that expects too much from her.
Her family has been telling her that her body is wrong most of her life. This is her trying to take back control.
Bingo
The problem is she is a boy
@@terryhostetler5956 excellently put!
@@terryhostetler5956 that is certain not the problem cause she is a girl, that's what her being transgender means. Shes not a guy and just the fact of her being trans isn't what's causing her issues
I haven't watched this show before but as an ED/trauma therapist, this is a completely unhelpful approach to supporting someone struggling with binge eating. More dieting, restriction, pushed exercise, pressure on weight loss, shaming.... that will all exacerbate the binge eating. She needs proper therapy WITHOUT cameras involved❤ And she needs totally different support from her family. Ugh I have so much compassion for her.
DUDE, help her! She's very blatantly telling you she needs your support and acknowledgement for her small successes. For some people, just getting out of bed in the morning is a major feat. You cant expect her to come to YOU and say lets go for a run, you need to initiate it and provide the structure necessary for her to succeed. Independence will come later
This, is untreated BPD
Nah. She can’t handle the truth. Her bro told her she can’t handle the truth. But the face that “she” is a whole boy shows that he could never face the truth. You can’t go through life not accepting the truth.
@@TheRenaissanceAmazon so true
How is he NOT helping her?? He is telling her the truth. He is not being super critical. He is literally stating facts about discipline/accountability that’s direct towards her diet/health. He is also there mentally for her.
Dude my question is how can someone even live with themselves looking like this? I’ve raised myself to be tough both physically and mentally. Also I think if I was to say that I had the brain of a girl, my brother would kick my ass and I would literally be thrown out of the house. There’s a reason why we were born the way we were and clearly this utter buffoon didn’t get that from a young age.
Asking people to hold you accountable is hard because when they do it can feel like you are being attacked.
THISS^
I had to google her age, because she is acting like a 14-year-old girl. I don’t watch the show. Do any of the adult children clean up after themselves?
They should just leave her alone😱
@@comos5994 seriously because they want it more than she does, it’s clear that she doesn’t want to loose weight. And to be honest I was shocked when her parents stayed they had to wake her up in the morning. She is clearly irresponsible and immature
She lives with her parents? Does she have a job? I do not mean a reality show.
Jazz has been through a lot, but in a lot of ways she’s pretty immature.
She needs to start taking small steps towards accountability and practising more discipline within herself

@@austron1077 rude
@@denisemccurry8505 it’s literally a biological male. you can cry all you want
A huge help is to occupy your mind with something other than food. Pick up a book you wanted to read for a while, or watch that movie you've had on your playlist for a while - explore a new craft you've had interest in, hang out with friends. An occupied mind is too busy to think about food.
That is a HE and a very fat one at that.
See that’s the problem, she leaves the room and the dad is like “sounds like it’s stressing her out” and then the mom is like “SHE STRESSES ME OUT”
As someone who really struggles with an eating disorder, I feel her pain! She doesn’t follow through because she’s hurting! 😭
She’s just exaggerating
Lily, he's obnoxious! He thinks he's perfect, partly the parents' fault, he's has such a massive ego too
But she doesn’t want to change
That dilating gel scene was so embarrassing. This whole scene didn’t need to be aired. Especially for someone dealing with so many complex issues she is dealing with.
You’re probably right but it goes to show their poor decision making and also their entitlement. Who plays with their sexual organs in their parents bedroom I ask you? That’s ridiculous, have some g*d damn respect for yourself (and your parents) and do that in the privacy of your own bedroom.
But the dilating gel is what youre meant to do after the surgery- its not her playing with her '-' ;-;-
That's disgusting
@@MiffetBlue i mean she has to do these steps to make sure the surgery results are good. But why film it and put it on tv????
It's for t.v cause it's so boring and there trying to get ratings
I wonder if she could’ve avoided a lot of the issues she’s faced if her life hadn’t played out on tv for so many years- I think how it all started was very brave and so educational but I just can’t help but feel Jazz is paying a huge price for it. I was born in the 80s so I was already ‘grown’ when social media blew up and phew, I feel like I dodged a bullet. And wait she’s going to Harvard??? How???
Money boo. Its a for profit university. The same for profit university that singer Ciara went too🤭🤑
@@milanimorales2645 girl I forgot about Ciara wit the Harvard diploma 😭😭😭
Just cause you have money doesn’t mean you don’t get accepted into Harvard. They have high standards for entrance. Don’t diminish her work ethic
As iv gotten older iv come to realize that they really just exploited their kid.. I'm sure it didn't start out that way... but as the money began to work its magic.. they lost sight of their kids feelings..iv seen plenty of documentation of these kids ... happy vibrant... self secure and witty...over the years jazz has gotten tired and I think they even kept her from college folks.... *correction* I read the comments... seriously the college thing is just for perks?
Shes a child actor whose image is being used for profit for the company and the family.
I want to hug Jazz so much. I have struggled with my weight for a long time. In September of 2022 I was at my heaviest at 264lbs… learned I’m diabetic, borderline suicidal… I discovered Keto, had a new lease on life… said to a friend at work “I won’t be a statistic…” I lost almost 90lbs… I’m now off all my meds.
What a cruel family this is .my heart breaks for her . They can really push someone over the edge with their words alone .
She's out of breath and sweating throughout this whole segment. I hope she gets help and everyone stops making her eating and weight be the topic of conversation. How difficult. She's going to have a breakdown if everyone doesn't relax on the topic.
Bruh I didn’t the breathing till just now that was funny
She does live in Florida too tho I’d be sweating too 😂
@Judge Jenny Yes, I noticed the labored breathing and that is extremely unhealthy especially in a 21-year-old person that's just scary unhealthy! It sounds to me like they baby her really bad however I don't know it comes a time when a child has to realize that they are no longer a child and grow up and take responsibility for themselves that's the only way she will ever understand this. Just you know like screw what everybody else wants but within reason go for your dreams and aspirations if it be school then go for it, but sometimes you got to take a step back and just do a little check on yourself first before you can move on.
I worry about this child. I seriously do. She almost needs someone prepping her meals for her. And that would not be so hard. Because she would be guaranteed to lose her weight and at that point it would give her confidence in herself-- it would actually solve quite a few things and make her heart healthier as well as cholesterol numbers good, blood pressure in check and keep her off the diabetics list!! 😳 And when you get your weight down and get your body where you want it to be it just brings on a whole new layer of self-confidence in so many ways and I bet school would appeal so much better to her at that point! I'll be praying for this child of God 🙏🙏🙋♀️✝️
I noticed her having to lean forward on the bed while talking to her parents. It's as if it's too hard to hold herself up for long. Not only the extra weight but the crazy amounts of estrogen.. who only knows how much harm this is doing to her bone structure, muscles... she was created to have testosterone to make her more strong than any woman.. it's been withheld and large amounts of estrogen given until he has breasts large enough for twelve women.
HE. NOT she.
Jazz’s dad really showed such compassion for Jazz in the end scene. Eating disorders are complicated mental health issues. I appreciate how he spoke to her.
Wish he would talk to his son & mom they just don’t get it .
*him
Gender dysphoria is also a complicated mental health issue.
Seems like a nice guy
I just wanna know her brother is single or not
Jazz is like a character in a tv show. At the end of every episode there’s a lesson and by the next episode she forgets the lesson she just learned
That’s because she is. This is all entirely scripted lol
That whole 'dilator in the parent's bedroom' feels the same as a dog shitting on your pillow- The dog feels wronged and he wants you to know.
Lmao
😂😂😂
Depression isn't about being lazy, it's about not being able to function, get out of bed. But the family is all acting clearly and told what to say for the camera.
going to the gym helps to fight off depression and anxiety
@@quandaledingle8583 sadly the hard part is getting yourself to be able to take that step😕😣
@@quandaledingle8583 imma start going myself I just hate people omg
@@dajataylor777 lol
@@dajataylor777I can relate to this. I started taking an antidepressant (buproprion- Wellbutrin) and it has done wonders for my brain. I jog 3 1/2 miles 4-5 times a week now.
Her family legit only talk about her weight to her. No wonder she got bigger. I would turn to food for comfort as well.
She gained weight because she has no self control and has a built in excuse of mental health and people like you blaming parents . 😂🤣😂😂🤣
She only wants to be praised and never wants to be accountable for her own actions. She wants help but doesn’t want to do the work she’s a joke!!
Obesity is a serious issue and Jazz is looking massive. I’ve been obese before, and I was called names every day by my fam. Not saying that the right approach but I was flabbergasted by just her lack of effort or even appreciation of her family’s efforts to get her back to health. She has all the support in the world and continues to be impossible to help! All she does is complain about how fat she is and then when her many family members graciously offer to help she complains some more! Srsy like everyone around her is trying their best to keep her real with her and she doesn’t wanna here any of it
Yeah they should be talking behind ger back I totally agree
Nah!Don’t blame.
If she was doing what she is supposed to do to take care of herself, she wouldn’t have to hear it. But she is slacking on everything, so everyone has something to say. I am pretty sure won’t be lo g until she wants a surgery to reduce her stomach to not make effort or even a lypo. She seems very manipulative to avoid hearing everyone’s advice and frustration.
I never realized Jazz had a brother as I've not been following this. The first thing that struck me is that HE gets his family's approval by just being him while Jazz has to go through all of this other crazy stuff for their approval.
How unfair is that?
You're completely wrong. Please actually watch the show instead of making these assumptions from a couple clips. He is literally always left out and never gets his family's approval . Especially with his career path. It's almost humorous that you say that.
Sander is the flying monkey to the mom. If the mom isn’t constantly down Jazz’s throat then sander goes and does it. He is not a good brother by a long shot.
I admittedly haven't watched much of this show and I have limited knowledge of Jazz and her family but, dang....as a mom, my heart just breaks for her 😩 She seems so lost and her family just criticizes the bejeezus out of her constantly. It's obvious that usually doesn't work and isn't working for Jazz. I really pray she finds the peace she's looking for ❤
Y’all do understand that an eating disorder ties in with mental health?She does need to take responsibility but sometimes it’s not as easy for everyone and the little comments like “she looks horrible” and “she’s gonna transition to my 600lb life” are detrimental.Y’all prove how horrible and mean people can be.-
Sometimes the harsh truth is better than coddling
@@ry_an. There’s a difference between bullying and being genuinely honest and worried for her health.It’s sad that people think it’s ok to emotionally break someone down in order to “help” them🤦🏾♀️
@@ry_an. its not coddling that helps an eating disorder. i have one but on the opposite end of the spectrum. what’s helped me is understanding, mental health support, and patience. just going “get over it and just don’t eat” that’s not helping at all. eating disorders or not that easy to handle
@@naz4692 I guess she just doesn’t have the mental game… which is alright. But bullying? That’s bullying to you?
I guess everyone’s different, and its good to be supportive. But that’s where manipulation comes in. How do you be the best version of yourself without someone pushing you?
@@intensehummingofevil I’m not saying to just “suck it up”, cause that’s not helpful. Jazz’ siblings were being hard, showing her how it is. Don’t be sugarcoating shit
Jazz needs to stop looking to her family to help her lose weight and start making the right decisions on her own. She's a grown-up adult and needs to take responsibility for her choices.
She is still a child in many ways .Her health goes back to childhood.I do agree with you .She is the one who chooses her food .God Bless
@David Ritchie Yes, she gained weight. But that does not make her any less beautiful.
@David Ritchie David please stop speaking on womens bodies
Yep.
@@Candicedickinsonllc lol
His parents should’ve been arrested years ago and charged with abuse.
what her family fails to understand is someone who is going thru a mental health decline needs 200% of the support from her loved ones. even if she makes 1 successful act out of 99 fails, that 1 success NEEDS praise.
i feel for her so much. at my lowest i was sleeping on the couch on the floor and didnt bathe bcz facing life just felt so overwhelming, i didnt eat, all i did was sleep.
im so thankful my family acknowledged my small steps forward, receiving praise for even those small things really changes your perspective, it shows you, you can do it
The fact that even after she got all the surgeries she wanted and her physical « transformation » is pretty much complete, she is still depressed and unhappy leads me to believe that her problem might not have been that she was born in the wrong body.
Exactly!!!
That’s a really bad narrative . It’s like saying that a person washing their hands to get rid of a bad smell was wrong to do it. Yes ultimate step to get rid of smell would be to take a shower but the fact that they could only at that time wash their hands does not discount the value in washing the hands.
Yes she has mental issues but getting rid of the weight was first step to a positive life
Exactly----my thought too!
And let’s not forget the female hormones they are injecting into him… his body is fighting his self on the inside
Exactly. I had actual body dysmorphia and the minute I got surgery to correct the part of my body I hated, my depression and ED also dissipated and I became a normal, happy person. The fact that there are still so many mental health issues she's dealing with speaks volumes.
Absolutely tragic story. When Jazz protests “I’m stuck in this body!” that’s a cry of rage and pain about what was so unnecessarily done to a healthy young body. Jazz needs deep compassionate therapy away from cameras and family to process all this.
Her transition wasn't unnecessary, it was good that she was supported to live as her preferred gender.
@@spartan1347981 but at what cost? she got puberty blockers when she was 11 bruh puberty not even finished. she got her surgery when was only 17.
Throughout the show Jazz claims to be suffering from depression and anxiety since she was 12 years old around the time she started getting puberty blockers
@@spartan1347981 also she doesn’t even have a proper vagina! The doctors and her mom didn’t even want her to see it because it was falling apart 🤮 that ain’t normal lol. Real women have working vaginas in the sense that they got a hole, it’s not falling apart, they can pee from it and they can masturbate & get an orgasm, something Jazz hasn’t been able to do. And she is 20/21.
@@lenaackerman2499 she got her surgery when she was 18, or maybe a few months before she was, that doesn't make much of a difference. And yes puberty blockers to keep her from having to go through the puberty of a gender that she wasn't comfortable in. Instead she went through her puberty as a girl. She needs a therapist to talk through her depression, maybe the hormones had a negative effect on her and she needs different medication. But transitioning to her preferred gender isn't if of itself what's making her unhappy
@@spartan1347981 makes a huge difference lol. I see so many people online against young people getting plastic surgery, why shouldn’t it be the same for trans surgery, which is dangerous and has its risk? Even a transgender person came on this show to warn Jazz to take it easy and advised against it. There’s lots of cases of people detransitioning or regretting the whole thing.
The fact that you can’t see what’s wrong with all of this is sad. According to Jazz’s mom, when Jazz was only 2 she already was claiming she wasn’t in the right body?? Like 2 years old?!?! Have you ever been around a 2 year old? Check out Neil Nightmares I think on RUclips, also another woman who does a video exposing this family, especially her narcissist mother who is evil and is the one who pushed this ideology onto Jazz.
What Jazz really needs to do is break away from her evil and abusive family.
Yikes. Omg. No wonder she's anxious and depressed. I hope she gets away from this toxic family dynamic. How can anyone grow and love themselves when they are constantly told they aren't good enough. This is sad.
Her parents shouldn’t have made a young child the face of transgender awareness. That is so much to put a young child - forcing her into talk shows and intrusive tv documentaries since she was young. What kind of toll does that take on a child?
Additionally, she has no privacy from the world. As a cis woman who has used dilation treatment, I would be mortified to talk about it on tv. The poor girl already has a hard road ahead of her being trans, this was too much.
I agree. Her mother was the ruin of jazz
She said she was a girl at such a young age. Then came all the attention of a reality show. Of course, she embraced being a girl with all that affirmation.
Just let a child be a child. It was a tragedy applauding this as a child. I remember wanting to be superman when I was little. My family didn't turn upside down and do everything they could to make me the man I wanted to be at 3YO..
Youre not a cis woman. Youre a woman. Jazz is transgender.
@@susanimai4014 You don't understand the number of hoops that someone needs to go thru to access these things. Its not "oh I guess I'll decide to be a girl" its "I've spoken to 5 medical professionals waited a year and now I'm approved to make my own choices about my own body". The assumption that you know more about someone than they do is condescending and infantilizing
@AhhH! I'm not sure where you are but in multiple states, people need a one hour appointment for puberty blockers and a trans diagnosis. It is not difficult to get
Disordered eating is HARD to deal with. I don’t think people realize that you’re medicating yourself with food. It’s a vicious cycle because you eat because you feel bad and then feel bad because you eat. Until she learns how to deal with her emotions, she won’t find peace with her body.
She won’t find peace because she is not herself
I can so imagine. It’s just like pills. Or marajuana. Or drinking. If u can imagine that, just imagine doing it with food & there ya go….
Food is the most socially accepted vice and kills the most people in the US. So many are numbing themselves out of reality with food so they don't have to feel. The external is merely a reflection of one's internal state of being.
This show makes you say "Don't judge a book by its cover". It wasn't about the transition but about her family.
A bad family isn't enough, they ruined her life, they also bully her
Holy fuck. The way they’re talking to her is horrible. I completely understand why she’s struggling so hard with this. Depression is a MONSTER. You can’t just SNAP OUT OF IT.
I’m sorry but going to school is not going to alleviate stress 😂 let alone being at Harvard

Absolutely! Wrong! Some adults involved in this mutation of a young boy who might have jus been gay! Not a girl! A gay boy which is okay & didn't require the parents to ruin this young man's life by completely changing the sex of the child, horrendous!
@@smisango1738 and ruining any chance for him to have a sex life. Either straight or gay
100% a CHILD does not know or understand the long term consequences of “changing your gender” (you can’t). They have no idea what they will want in 5, 10, 15+ years…it’s child abuse, plain and simple.
Her family stresses her out. Her whole life she has done nothing but try to please her family that's why she's so decisive girl you need to get away from that bunch you're never going to be happy being around people that can't be made Happy they are always going to see your shortcomings not one word of encouragement ever comes out of their mouth not one
Can we talk about the fact she was talking to her parents in front of a blanket of an image of herself, then adding she needs her dilation dil...err gel and then the negativity of them toward her weight. What is my life? Enough internet for the day. 🤣🤣
🤣😭😭
I thought the same, like what am I watching?! Why are her parents propped up on the bed like that
It's downright abnormal.
This show should have ended a long time ago. They’ve turned her into a cash cow. I truly feel bad for Jazz.
Quite Literally lol
@@user-yr7lj2ht2o lol😂🫠
WOW 😳😳😳😳😳
That Pun was intended 🙂 and it landed perfectly 😂
Again she's saying she's 'stuck in her body'. Doesn't this sound familiar? Poor Jazz. I just feel for you so much. It breaks my heart to see you treated like this. You deserve better. To everyone involved in the making of this show, what goes around comes around. Some day I hope Jazz will walk away from this. Sweet sweet soul.
I feel awful for Jazz. I can't image my whole childhood being broadcast to the world. Throughout the show, Jazz's genitals and body have been openly discussed, photographed, operated on and publicised. The doctor joked that Jazz could be a p*rnstar due to all the photos taken down there, and the family LAUGHED. The first-of-its-kind surgery performed on a 17 year old (leading to FOUR revisions), as well as the mental health problems plaguing Jazz since the age of 12... It's really sad. Jazz seems like a very sweet person who I hope is able to find some happiness and good friends and get away from this stifling environment.
No walking away when the bottom surgery has mutilated the body
why in the world are you "dialating" in your freakin parents bed and why are they not even blinking and eye when you make this announcement?! these people all need therapy
Yeah a little weird to be doing that in the parents bed, she said something like, she does it cause she can watch the TV while doing it in their room but can't in hers, which ig makes it nore understandable
They pushed this poor child at way too young an age- anyone with a brain could have seen a bad situation coming-poor Jazz-
Was thinking that, jazz probably battling mental health because of it and is confused n the family is not helping the root problem leading to the weight gain but rather pushing to lose weight
oh shit she needs to loose the weight they are worried she is going to stroke out from being over weight
Exactly!
@@joyce9523 yea but no one can lose weight until they hv motivation n Jazz clearly mentions she is hving mental health issues hence can't be motivated
Actually no they didn’t push her they let her to much they’ve given her to much which now is causing issues cuz everything was given to her
Jazz is someone who needs positive reinforcement. All the negativity is actually making it worse for you. I'm the same way also with my mental health. Atleast her parents are listening to her about it.
I think she’s been listened to ad nauseam since she’s been a young child. Time to dump the stupid show, start college, lose the weight, become an independent person, and live a normal life, because wasn’t that her goal to begin with? Time to get out of bed, stop eating all day, and become productive. And I definitely would not go to Harvard! She’s had a hard time dealing with pressure, yet she’s going to throw herself into that competitive pressure cooker? She’ll weigh 600 lbs by the time she’s finished! Stinkin thinkin!
HIS parents. Jaron is NOT female.
Actually She got it changed. SHE is legally considered a female.
@@katrinataylor5490 maybe legally but its not reality.
.. her parents listening to her to produce the show babe, otherwise she would have been in a better place mentally if somebody listened to her genuinely
Why wont they encourage her in a positive manner, why wont they acknowledge and celebrate her accomplishments no matter how small. She needs their support now more than ever and all they're doing is putting her down.
They do that all the time. But every now and then everyone needs tough love. Specially Jazz with how much her family has babied her her whole life
You can't blame Jazz her FAMILY raised her this way! What were they expecting?
The problem with Jazz rn is that she's at home, in her comfort zone where if she doesn't do something someone else will do it for her or give her the push she needs to do, her mother said "how are you gonna wake up when you're at school?" trust me, she will wake up, there's something about moving away from home, it matures you, it makes you take being responsible for yourself more serious than before, the adult, self-sufficient instinct kicks in because you know you're alone now, no one will push you but yourself, her family needs to trust her and let her go into the world.. I was like her once being the youngest in the family but when I left home at 20, 5 years ago, I even surprised myself of how independent and responsible I turned out, and I hope Jazz thrives too when she leaves the nest ❤️
I wish it was as simple as that. It isnt
@@1958slp Completely agree with you. The biggest problem with Jazz is the parents. They hurt their child in the long run.
Why is she like a victim
Meh that’s not entirely true but I understand what you’re saying.
You mean he not she
I followed Jazz from before her show. I believe that Jazz’s mother pushed her into it all. Her family are on her back about this/that and her diet 24/7. It’s been horrible. Jazz, I grew up being bullied by my older brother. It isn’t easy. She needs to get out of that environment. They are creeps.
I reckon if left alone Jazz would be Jarron, a happy and healthy gay man now.

Her brother made me sick to my stomach how he was talking to her.. “I’ve maybe seen u get up 2 days” they clearly don’t understand mental health. I applied jazz for getting up those 2 days because getting out of bed can feel impossible when your dealing with mental health issues.
It's because they coddled him and went along with every whim. No need to face reality.
Her* jazz is a woman, please refer to her as such
Her entire life including very personal issues has been on display for too long. Her parents are now addicted to the money and destroying their child to be on TV. Same with her siblings. It’s sickening. She needs to get out of the public eye. They need to back off and stop helicopter parenting.
I do think the borderline age of kids needs to be increased from 19 to 29, but as of now, Jazz has parents, but is done being parented. Already 21 1/2.
She’s 21 old enough to make her decision
Yes!! Too much, too personal and too public! I feel bad for her. Give her space and room.
Too personal but you were still interested enough in it to click and engage to this day huh?
The reason this show is successful is bc of clowns like you who propagate the very lies that brought this person to this very situation. Boys don’t grow up to be women. Only girls do that and Jazz was never a girl. When your entire life is predicated on a lie your only pursuit is an unattainable goal. Thats why Jazz still hates “her” body, bc its not the female body “she” wants it to be and never will be bc thats not what “she” is. This child should have been raised to accept themself for what they are -- an effeminate male with an affinity for the customs, presentation, and mannerisms that are socially regarded as typical of girls and women, and left it at that. Instead was fed a lie and now even after everything they went through, still can’t accept themself. Smh, this whole damn family is a circus and the parents are the grifters.
Why is she learning to be independent now? Her parents should've been preparing her to be independent. Instead they enabled her throughout her whole life. She's now going to buy groceries on her own??? It's sick how controlling her mother is. I remember there was this one episode where her mom had a problem with what kind of shoes Jazz was wearing. Jazz is the most realistic out of the bunch, and actually open and honest about what's bothering her. Everyone else just seems fake. She needs to get the hell out of that house and take her life back. Her parents are just cashing in on her. Damn hypocrites are pointing out her flaws when they have far more bigger flaws they fail to see in themselves 😡
They would be a more normal family if it wasn't for Jazz. Dysphoria is a delusion and all of them took part in it.
@@esval3054 They would be a more normal family if they focused on getting Jazz the right counseling and support early on. Stop blaming the victim here, the parents are at fault.
nailed it! bravo!
Agreed. I started my son on his independence when he turned 13. It started with preparing small snacks that began with using the microwave first, then the oven, and now that he's 17 he can make his own breakfast, lunch, dinner, etc. He can grocery shop. Independence upbringing doesn't start at age 19
Jazz is a cash cow
It's the man trying to come through. A constant tug of war in his body.
There's no man coming through what are you on about? Her* body is fine, she needs to deal with her ED that's all
Child abuse in plain sight, horrendous. In 10 years we will look back on this horrified. Why should this poor girl have to tolerate this. Her entire life scrutinised and judged in front of the world. If this doesn't stop jazz will be at risk of suicide, if she isn't already. Jazz sweetheart I'm so sorry you are in this position.

It’s really hard being the struggler in the family. I struggle with my mental health and have had weight issues and it’s so hard being the family member with an issue.
I feel that
put down the fork, look into fasting !!
@@xhristian4207 i actually have had the opposite issues with weight but thanks for your advice, maybe not tell strangers what to do?
@@xhristian4207 they’re not idiots, they’re struggling with something deeper than can be solved with simplistic solutions.
I’m so sorry for your troubles, you’re in my prayers.
I kinda feel like she will have a better time losing weight once she goes off to college and gets independence. It’s hard to do something for yourself when people are constantly demanding it of you. It makes it feel like a chore. I wish her the best in her journey!
Are you kidding? College means more stress than she has ever had to deal with. She will turn to food again and there won't be anyone to hold her accountable. She has to hold HERSELF accountable.
You obviously never had an unlimited meal plan 😂
Hi Lizzie, people missed your point. When I was on campus I wanted to lose weight and my university emailed students about aerobic classes, yoga, etc. When I did those classes I made friends who were my size and we're on the same journey. We ate healthy together and it didn't feel like a chore. We all lost weight even though the classes we took were temporary that year. They continued the fitness programs, virtually during COVID 19, because people were participating and losing weight. Plus the classes were fun and lifted our spirits because college is stressful, so it was like a getaway lol.
@@kirksbeauty I wish I had that opportunity when I was in college. :(
@@ARiddle1986 *virtual hug*🤗. I'm sorry you didn't have that in college. I think more universities and community colleges should have those programs for students. Students should learn about what they put in their body and exercise so it becomes a lifestyle that's enjoyable and healthy.
She was dealt A HARD one with such a family. Damn
The mom saying "she stresses me out" is disgusting.
Her mother is the one who _created_ all these mental problems Jazz is experiencing!
Absolutely! There’s something wrong with this entire family. And that all stems from these parents.
She has a point. To think of her family environment and how she survives that, I don’t really blame her for manifesting disordered eating, mood & emotional problems. Being hard on people like her (and myself) only pushes us further into depression & problem behaviours. It sucks they are critiquing & attacking her as you can’t “yell away” someone’s mental illness. Preaching is NOT the solution. Change has to come from her own locus of control. Not from external motivations. (This is from someone who has been in a family dynamic in which I had to perform to the expectations set on me).
honestly with jazz’s recent journey with health has been overlooked. both viewers and her family are really treating her mental health harshly. it feels like her family don’t realize how deep eating disorders are. they just go “well don’t do this because you’re not losing weight fast enough. nag nag, just don’t do that” which pisses me off. they’re simplifying her ed and driving her into a deeper depression
Its been the same struggle for years. Therapy to whatever else she needed. I personally feel her family is fed up! They gave her motivation as well as THEIR time to work with her...yet she constantly makes no headway with her goal. Atp, do they talk about their own issues besides hers? I get its her show but DAMN
*he
Your right Jazz. Just listening to all that negativity makes me sick. I don’t know how you can stand it
@@lindamastropietro4429 mans just telling jazz like it is. hearing the harsh reality is more loving than hearing that what he’s done to his body is ok. most women don’t understand that, they’re too in their feelings all the time.
I would get so tired of my family constantly nagging me to “be better.” Feeling watched constantly and like everything you do is being judged make it even harder to make healthy choices. Her family is so hard on her to the point that she feels like a child, ostracized, like the failure of the family. I would struggle with my mental health too. Xander doesn’t even seem to consider her side at all
They aren’t ‘nagging’ her, they are pointing out the obvious. They wouldn’t have to do that if Jazz would get off ‘her’ fat ass and actually do the work it takes to get results. Calling ‘her’ out over ‘her’ lack of motivation and action isn’t nagging, it’s honesty.
No that’s pushing the people u love to do better when there slipping. The attitude she has to anything that’s tough will get her no where in life.
Yeah it's even giving me anxiety.
@@gonzothecat5901 you have to physically help people in this situation and not just say words and except them to follow through. people who’ve given up on themselves obviously won’t wake up one day and decide to change. instead of dreading about how much better she can be, why don’t they positively reinforce her instead? the reason she has that ‘attitude’ is due to insecurity and feeling like the whole family is onto her.
@@theleafandtheelm obviously you’ve never been in a situation like this before
I suppose my family is whacked, but I can't imagine dilating in my parents room( if I even had to) , in their bed, and then discussing it as my father smiles. Does this family have any boundaries at all?! Sander needs to worry about his own body, and stop obsessing over his sisters.
This is gaslighting. She is trying to be positive and make good choices and he's standing there just looking for any reason to question her and make her feel like she can't do it and she's being mocked for her efforts. And then they have the audacity to act like they are just trying to help. When they won't even live in ONE MOMENT of positivity about changing the diet. God forbid someone say good job and pat her on the back cause she's trying now cause she's failed in the past.
Her dad is way too smiley about what they found in THEIR room. This is so weired
They just used her dilation gel 😉
He’s grimaced in the past when jazz is too explicit.
That was beyond bizarre! What was that thing doing in her parents’ bedroom? Why was she walking around with it? 🤮🤮🤮 This family has no boundaries! Never seen anything like it.
“I don’t wanna do a diet, I wanna change my whole life”
This is what it feels like to stare at the top of a mountain and say, I just wanna be at the top. The diet is part of the journey in your life change. You have to take the steps to travel 🧳 on your journey up the mountain.
Id love to see how much she would thrive with her own place, no cameras and some of the money she's made for her parents from being the whole show.
"She's stressing me out, I know she's not trying to" narcissist parents. That poor girl
Wow. Her saying she sometimes "dialates" in her parents room while watching tv. Seriously. That's nasty. She needs to get basic manners.
And her dad just sitting there non chalant about it. Ew wtf is wrong w them
This family has always had zero boundaries. The conversations and situations they describe aren’t healthy or normal. They’ve all been hijacked by this movement. Telling your child to do private things in their own room is a conversation you have with a five year old, not an 18 year old

Jas isn’t used to being held accountable because mommy and daddy have been babying her FOR HOW LONG
exactly
I dont know how Jazz stays sane.
Her family breathes down her neck, I would have lost it years ago.
No one is born in a wrong body. Gif can’t be questioned. She’s carrying a purpose she wasn’t meant to carry
Why would anyone believe that Jazz could stay consistent with a diet...She had been doing whatever she wanted to do since she was 4...No discipline at all...absolutely nothing to do with her gender...
They have done nothing but baby her. Hard to believe she will function without her family.
@@earthwaterfall1498 Overcoddling harms because when you suddenly expect the child (now adult) to be responsible, they don't or won't know how. Her siblings are definitely tired of it.
She is growing up to be Whitney Thore.
Its annoying that they weren't as supportive when she first started putting on the weight... maybe instead of jumping on her at 100pounds, they should have jumped on her at 10 or 20 pounds.... would have ruined the storyline though... the whole series to me is one failure after another, dating, gender surgery now weight. Has there been a happy season?
Honestly relatable I was sheltered and coddled a lot due to ADHD and mental health issues and now my family is like time to grow up and it is so scary I am literally terrified to go out with people since home is my safety and the shame that comes with facing myself is scary and I honestly sometimes don't know if I will make it . Not to mention I also struggle with binge eating and depression I just feel so behind.
“You’re almost ready to be a totally independent adult” the father says as he lays on a blanket with his daughters face on it.
His family berated him the second they chopped his parts ... these parents should be put in a jail cell ... they ruined a healthy child over their sick desires and this kid struggles and will for the rest of his life because of the parents selfishness.
Yes, yes, yes! And do you ever notice how WE are the ones that get attacked for not agreeing with this lifestyle? It’s crazy. Just because we state the OBVIOUS facts that if you’re born a male, you’re a male. If you’re born female, you’re a female! I mean, why is that so hard to realize???? Yeah, now society wants us to accept MEN-that think they are a woman, mind you- using female bathrooms and locker rooms? They want to play against other women in female sports?? How bout ol’ BRUCIE-getting an ESPY for…🙄…bravery???!!?” The man put on a dress and heels, and sashayed himself across a stage to accept an award that should’ve went to the vet without legs, as HE lost his legs during his tour. THAT is bravery, not Bruce Jenner getting clipped & snipped!! But yet again, WE are the ones that are wrong. TF???
And OMGGGGG- don’t even get me started on using “proper pronouns,” and this ridiculous binary BS!!!!
As for this kid, jazz… If his parents would’ve left him alone, in the first place, he probably would’ve grown out of it. And if not, they should’ve got him a psychiatrist because that’s what he needed. Not a surgeon!
Smhhhhh
I just can’t believe she got that big and blew up in size, reality tv isn’t everything , she’s clearly comfort eating and dealing with depression, poor thing
Yeah, imo i think it's burnout from the show and being a public figure for so long, but she's clearly unfortunately developed a binge eating disorder from somewhere. I hope she can see a therapist to help deal with it and return to normal eating habits, that will help lose weight. Throwing herself into a diet without addressing the underlying cause of the weight gain won't get her anywhere
Male hormones still kicking in that's why
@@abd12459 no that's definitely not why
I’m not trans but I have never related to anyone like jazz I lack motivation consistency and it has taken over my life. It’s a cycle that is where it’s extremely hard to break
i use to aswell..... start small with a routine w.e time you wake up set an alarm for that exact time even if it's early after that make your bed and take a shower brush your teeth and then think about what your next step is if it's just sitting around that ok but make a goal for the day one thing you will get done even if it is small do this every day and your list of things will grow you will start automatically waking up instead of having a timer you will want to make your bed instead of it being a chore the little small accomplishments in life help you build confidence to achieve big ones. Even if that means just making your bed everyday not to mention its nice if you have a terrible day, you still come home to a made clean bed to start the next day on a better note. -much love take care of yourself and respect others.
What I find that works is freeing up space inside your mind for the things that you want to accomplish. What I mean by this, is if your mind is already preoccupied with things you won't be able to have the mind capacity for something new. Like for me, I was keeping up with many tv shows that I enjoy watching, I took the television out of my room and put it in the garage. Now everyday I wake up to do other task then laying down in bed watching TV. Whatever fills ur mind, find a way to get rid of it and replace it with those things you want to do
@@airpilot590 if tv was a main problem i think you might have bigger issues to fry not to be offensive but that information isn't meant to be maintained you're suppose to digest it and let it go not dwell on it but i am glad you already took the steps after realizing.
I had the same thing a year or two after graduating high school. Eventually you get tired of not doing anything and want to progress with your life
I’m very thin. I can say it’s if u want to be healthy, decide what means more. Food or happy and healthy.
She will not last at Harvard. Jazz stresses too much and her getting healthier will help all her issues.
She's an adult! Leave her the hell alone! They do criticize her too much. No one can be forced to lose weight she has to do it herself.
He
Her family reminds me of mine. I hope she can get passed the mom especially and come into her own. She needs positive inspiring motivating people.
as someone who is Jazz's size and also binge eats, It IS a cycle that is VERY hard to break out of. I feel bad..Sander is someone who works out constantly. That is not so easy for us. She probably wishes someone would understand what she is going through.
Because people like us who workout we also have our struggles but over eating isn’t going to many anything better… i hate working out BUT sometimes we need to pick good decision for the well being of our bodies ❤ i wish you a happy life!
I was thinking the same thing, Sydney. He is acting like a girl who weights 200+ pounds is just going to wake up and be able to go for a run. She needs to start small to avoid injury, and focus on her mental health more than anything. He doesn't understand her at all, and wasn't willing to listen to her reasons for being disordered. She needed him to help her figure it out. He just said "you're disordered, and that's bad, period."
@@Littlekitten_ Ableism. Water is wet. So what?
She huffin and puffin after one sentence bruh
Eating disorders are complicated. It’s an addiction, yes. However, you need food to survive. It’s an extra layer of complications.
Yes! I think a good way instead of forcing her on a diet to lose weight and eat healthy is that she should see a professional (therapist of some kind) to help get her past the ED, back to normal eating habits and then she can start to diet to help lose the weight gained. Trying to do too much at a time will only slow down progress or even make her go backwards
She needs to pack up and leave, go and do whatever it is she wants to do. Obviously she has some money. She doesn't need them like this. I hope she's aware that this isn't informative anymore. This is greedy and abusive.
I'm so uncomfortable watching this because she's clearly been struggling for a long time and her family are exploitative creeps trying to gaslight her into thinking her problems are her fault when they fucked her up to begin with.
Alot of her problems were her parents allowing her to make changes at a young age,they need to take accountability also,a commitment for wieghtloss for her and her mental health would take impatient care for her,this needs all her energy,she could focus and not worrying about anything but getting well,she can do it,yes she needs proper guidance
Her being supported and allowed to transition is not why she's got mental health issues now, she is happy in her preferred gender and starting her before she was an adult was good. There are other factors that are playing into her mental health
@@spartan1347981 this is what child exploitation looks like. We don't allow children to drink alcohol, why allow them to begin something that will change their body and affect their mind? And then filming it for the world to see,...
@@anastasia-fr1gn yeah, I agree with you that jazz was exploited by the media and her parents. But it isn't wrong for a parent to support a child's transition in of itself. Maybe they did start everything a little early, but studies show it is helpful to trans kids and teens to be put on hrt before the period in which they go through puberty ends. I don't think there's anything wrong with giving trans teens hrt as that will help save some lives
@@III-rp6zc ok but your personal experience with gender doesn't invalidate other people's experience of their gender identity, and being a tomboy isn't exactly the same as being trans. I think she was diagnosed very early, but the point of when she was taking hormones was fine, allowing trans youth to take hrt so they don't have to go through the puberty of their birth sex and instead go through the one of their gender identity helps alot with mental health and body dysphoria.
@@spartan1347981 you realize being diagnosed with gender dysphoria so early and then raised and treated as a female for the enitrety of their formative years is NOT a child making their own decisions? theres a word for that- grooming.

The family has done nothing but coddle Jazz. There are no coping mechanisms for her. She expects her family to baby her and it's pathetic. She went to the store alone and she wants a reward. He needs to grow up.
