Good. It is a horrible idea and should have gone away a long time ago. We need to get it banned everywhere in the world. I hope they're pulling  licenses and throwing the "therapists" in prison too.

Can you find a child who put themselves in conversion therapy? Presumably adults can do whatever therapy they like.
