One of the things the article mentioned is that both the parents are Christians. It doesn’t say what ‘flavor’ of Christianity they are.

It sounded like all they did was just ridicule him and tell him he was wrong. It doesn’t appear they ever attempted to get him the help he needed.

Also, here’s a question: Suppose the parents of a gender-confused child DO get him help. However, after moths, if not years of therapy, the child absolutely refuses to acknowledge their proper gender. What should be done then?

Simple, raise the child till adulthood and let them go. As Christians we are told not to exasperate your children, but to love them even though we may not agree with them.

I suspect, from the post however, it is desired that the courts become involved. This opens pandora's box I'm afraid and you can loose your children on anyone else's belief at that point. It just depends on what's popular at the moment (think Nazism or Communism or even Christianity if you think about it). So don't ask to open pandora's box. You might not like what you find in it.

Same thing they would do if he started growing extra arms or another head, I suppose..
