It is a type of reasoning, just a bit twisted. By giving kids the ability to transition or seek medical interventions, you're also taking away the parents ability to control their kids, forced by the state which is a quick jump on the conclusions map to the other belief they've set up previously which is the state is brain washing kids to become trans through the state run education system.

So in their view, the liberals are forcing trans ideology on children while trying to remove parental rights.

Their view is that children are their property.

Yup, which they kind of are in a way.a parent is responsible for them legally until 18.

No. Responsibility is not ownership. You have an obligation to your kids, not the other way around. If the kid doesn't want to tell you a profound secret about who they are, then it's time to reflect on your parenting, not to get the government to force teachers to rat them out.
