Transgender Child Commits Suicide, Feuding Parents Hold One Funeral for the Boy and Another for the Girl
Red State ^ | 04/26/2021 | Alex Parker

Posted on 04/26/2021 7:33:52 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

A teen in Western’s Australia’s capital has been given two funerals.

The 15-year-old female — who identified as a boy — died tragically by suicide.

The child’s mother and father are estranged.

Given the terrible situation, they had to decide: Would she be laid to rest as female? Or would the identity of a boy be reflected by the burial?

Mom and dad couldn’t come to a consensus.

The mother insisted her child — born a girl — find a final resting place as a guy.

In fact, as reported by 7News, she vowed to employ the full power of the court system if necessary:

The boy’s mum said she was prepared to take the issue about his name all the way to the Supreme Court, adding her son “would hate” to have the wrong name on his memorial.

From Out.com:

The unnamed mother said her son fought hard for his gender identity, even worrying about the name he’d used at his new school for his email login, but said his father “wanted all the ashes” buried together using his son’s deadname on the headstone.

“I would agree to have (the birth name) in brackets but his (chosen name) first,” she said.

Recognizing his son’s true gender identity in death was too much for the boy’s father and the plans were originally put on hold until they could be resolved in family court. https://t.co/t35psl8rMN

— Out Magazine (@outmagazine) April 24, 2021

The issue ended up in Family Court.

An agreement was reached: There would be two funerals, for two representations of the same person — substantiated by two separate containers of ashes.

As indicated by the outlet, the child’s name hadn’t been legally changed.

Per the law, only a birth name would appear on the death certificate.

The adolescent, it seems, was no stranger to turoil:

The 15-year-old was diagnosed last year with borderline personality disorder, something his mother said she didn’t learn until the just before he died. She also revealed her son had recently run away from home and stopped taking his antidepressant medication. He had been referred to Perth’s outpatient Gender Diversity Service, but no further details were provided.

As relayed by the Daily Mail, the child will have two different headstones.

The Mail notes it had looked as if the child might survive the suicide attempt:

The day after he attempted to take his life, the young boy went to school but his health quickly deteriorated and he died at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital a few days later.

He was described by friends as a well-loved, caring friend and talented artist with a dark sense of humour and colourful hair.

Nothing is more grievous than an early end to a troubled life.

As for a dispute over burial, name, and identity, it’s easy to imagine more of the same in coming years.

According to a Gallup poll in January, among Generation Z — adults 18-23 — 15.9% now identify as LGBT.

Some of that percentage, of course, is occupied by those identifying as something different than their sex.

America’s demographics are changing; more notably, so are its problems.

For one family in Perth, a teen may have been put to rest; but the way in which it was done is a permanent testament to conflict.

So sad, and probably driven to it by the parents.

I think there is a case in texas coming soon

The mom neglected her daughter and this is the result. The child is the victim of the mom’s insanity.

sickening

“Transgenderism” not only mutilates the body, it often destroys the family, if it was not already in a poor state.

Her mom and Australia’s courts were accomplices in her suicide.

He had BPD, which is a chemical imbalance. He stopped taking his meds. His parents’ disputes pry had nothing to do with his decision to kill himself.

I find it very sad that so many idiotic kids think they’re LBGQTXYZ. I guess it’s the trendy thing to be now. Wouldn’t be surprised if my 17 year old granddaughter decided to join the ranks soon since she’s into being a cool kid. FML.

This sounds a lot like the Texas case. In that one, the Mom is a psychiatrist. Always a big red flag.

Very strange and sad. Funny how it’s usually the mothers who are so quick to presume a child’s whim equals an unbreakable permanent vow. Something bordering on Munchassen’s by Proxy seems to be going on in many cases.

Borderline personality disorder, not bipolar disorder. Mood disorders like bipolar often respond to medication, but not personality disorders.

Munchausen’s Syndrome by Proxy, probably by the mom, perhaps aided by the dad.

...A few days later, the counselor and the girl were messaging each other on social media. Among other things, the counselor called the girl “Al” – a boy’s name – and said she was worried about her being at home with her family.

She told the girl, “If you feel unsafe at home, or are thinking of hurting or killing yourself, there are people I can call to make sure you are safe. Please let me know if this is the case.” (Very disturbing: The counselor is putting suicidal ideas into the girl’s head!)

I wonder if the person who wrote this is also a confused dyke/fag/queer.
It is definitely biased.

The number one/two topics on tranny sites is:
1) Do I look enough like a woman?
2) Should I kill myself because I don’t look like a woman?
3) See questions One and Two.
