Argentina's president bans gender-affirming care for people under age 18
Argentina's president says he has banned gender-affirming care for people under age 18. A presidential spokesperson said Wednesday the government was repealing a 2012 gender identity law provision allowing such practices with parental or guardian consent.

That seems extremely un libertarian of him. Wonder how his supporters will spin it as a positive for libertarians
No it isn't. Children are not considered mature enough to make legal decisions on their own, so the whole libertarian issue doesn't apply to them.
Right, so it falls to the parents' discretion, not the government's, in such a worldview.
So he's also going to raise the age of consent from 14 to 18?
I dunno dude, I am just explaining while this move isn't a contradiction with libertarian ideas.
I'm just pointing out the fact they don't consider that when it's related to consent.
